Not a bust but moving up with better available is Panthering.

  Moving up (trading a fifth rounder for a sixth) gave us a fifth year option--well worth it when you see that WRs are making over $30m now.  As for the "better available" comment--not everyone agrees with you.  I saw him mocked in the first round by some.  He had a wide range.  Do you know how or where they plan to use him?  220 lbs, over six feet tall, good hands, and runs a sub 4.4.  I get it that he is a bit unknown, but it sounds like the Panthers did their howework. Sounds like he really wants to be here.  I think you will change your mind soon.

Some of yall b*tch about trading 1 spot up to get XL then think about Atlanta use 8th overall to pick Penix while they signed 4 yrs with Coursins......

Some just want to bitch.  I think this was an incredibly smart move by Morgan--well worth the late round pick swap--and I think XL has a ton of upside and potential--probably more than the others yet to be drafted.

Nobody can really understand this pick until the see the offense and how he will be used.  So bitching is premature.   XL is high risk high reward--and they did their homework.  I am willing to see what he can do

Amazing watching the huddle.go from hating legette as a Mingo clone to praising him because of a potential 5th year option.

 

If he's good the 5th year option won't be of any value.

His real haters are still hating. Don't be fooled!

Don't you mean if he sucks, the 5th year option won't be of any value?

My bad, not being a downer, just seen this to many times. I'm not buying it but I really do hope I'm wrong. Guy is great in coverage, unfortunately he is always in it.

      Joint Practice - Jets

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
