and I will contend to this day, there is no player in the nfl that isnt a qb that you dont accept that offer for.  2 firsts and a second and anyone gets traded.   Ive watched football for far to long to know that a player can simply fall off a cliff at any moment.  That type of draft capital, if parlayed correctly, can set your team up for a long time

Let's be honest with ourselves though, if Scott makes that deal then he is the one making the picks and we probably end up with some absolute bums who don't make it in the league past their rookie contracts.

Pretty much,  it’s the whole everything is for sale for the right price mantra.  You can’t turn that offer down if you were the Panthers.  The team getting absurd picks virtually always wins on those trades

That's a different problem all together. We would still have 1 of those picks left this year because he was getting fired over the combined disaster he had already created.  The Burns deal was only 1 of the reasons he's gone.

I mean, some of you were kinda right. You said that we weren't going to get a lot for Burns. Well we got a second and a fifth. So why act like the sky is falling over something you already figured?

You've been asking for a rebuild, and the organization to stop trying to put lipstick on a pig. Well, that's what's happening.

We've been asking them to fix the line since before Cam got hurt. Now that we're actually doing it, all you have is complaints. 

You said yourself that Bryce was going to get his shot this year whether we liked it or not. That's what's happening, so why act surprised?

You said that we can't fix everything overnight, but you're whining about fixing things incrementally, but fixing things for the long run. 

The plan is in place. We're fixing the O-line. There is no chance of competing with a bad one. We're rebuilding it from the inside out, which is exactly what we're trying to do. Being that we can't fix everything necessarily how we want it, it looks like we're going to roll with Chuba, Tremble and Sullivan, Mingo, etc., but remember that we still have more money and especially the draft. We'll likely be thoughtful when building what we can this year, especially in how it relates to protecting Bryce and providing him adequate weapons. Whatever isn't addressed this year will be addressed in the future.

That's a hard truth right there.

Ouch.

I mean if he made that deal he's not making the picks.  Wasn't it this year and next year's draft for the 1sts?  So in a weird way, it kind of proves Scott right for not taking the deal.  He didn't survive long enough even with keeping Brian Burns on the roster.  If he dumped him for picks we certainly aren't doing any better last year.

Person is now saying the only person in the front office that wanted to do the trade was Samir.   We are so fuged as a franchise

we've been fuged since Tepper bought the team. We won't be unfuged until he either sells or truly let's go (don't kid yourselves into believing he's in the "background" now. He hired Dan so Dan could be his new puppet)

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
