This is literally, "So, I would like some pussy." 

Ends up, "I'll suck anyone's dick."

That's the negotiating tactic I see.

It's all about those Dawgs has a broader meaning I guess...

To me it felt sarcastic when he said two firsts. He knew there was no chance, especially with the contract Burns would command. But obviously we should have sent on if the huddles many master negotiators, that would have guaranteed 10-15 first rounders.

Yeah, you can tell the two first thing was a play on the rams offer. This was “shooting the poo” as people say.

Burns playing like a bum all last season  tanked his trade value and contract. If he shows out and plays like an animal all season, we get at least a first and he might have gotten the money he wanted.

Instead, he showed the league he’s all about the business decision. Sounds like a GM killer to me. Morgan would have taken a Burger King Italian chicken sandwich (bring it back, BK) to get him gone.

Yeah as already stated in this thread and numerous other times, turning down the rams offer killed any chance of getting a haul for him now

Not going to fault Morgan, at least this time around, glad Burns is gone and we were able to flip that money over into the OL

Wow actually watching this. They didn't pay Saquon because they invested in Daniel Jones and want to see him sling it lol. 

Jones showed 10x what Bryce showed in their respective rookie seasons.

Jones didn’t have the crapshow of a team that Bryce had as a rookie either.

Nothing personal, but can we please move on from the Bryce-bashing and look ahead to next season?

No because what was stated was true. Many rookie QBs have had a rough rookie year but also showed something. Bryce did not and it wasn't all the crap show around him, he was a substantial part of that crap show. His best game as the GB game and the other team looked like they had their heads up their butts more than the Panthers were good IMO. 

Don't like it? I sympathize but no one has to play pretend if they don't want to. That wasn't Bryce bashing it was just truth that hurts. There is a big difference.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
