I am under the impression that (one again) we have last year's guards playing. If we could get both Gs who have been successful, we can see what we have.  There is no reason your LG should be a weakness, but we seem to have a history of sucking there.  I am getting concerned that we are not going to protect Bryce and Bryce is not going to be good.  My focus is on 2025 anyway, but there are a lot of questions I want to see answered this season.  Icky, WR, QB (I think we probably know that answer), LB, CB,and C.

I've just never seen an oline look so confused before. They legit ll block the wrong people it's not even about poor technique or them getting overwhelmed from a physical standpoint. They legit just don't know who to block and let people lined up in front of them run right to the QB without even a hand on them I've never seen this happen so many times to an NFL offense it's ridiculous

Judging from the comments it's safe to say we will be drafting Shedeur Sanders with the #1 pick.

 

 

 

It will be interesting to watch the QBs develop in college this season.  Sanders and Beck are above the pack, but there are about 4 who could shoot up boards if they have a good season--and they have the tools. 

I really like Smith, Houston's size---and he could be the dark horse.  Ewers has been able to keep Arch Manning on the pine-that is pressure and shows he's a dog (competitor).  The Penn State QB (Allar) like Smith is a big guy who could move into round 1 if he looks good against OhioSt, USC, etc. We have seen it before--some unknown going into the season.  Milroe at Bama is also poised to get some love.   Sanders is disciplined and seems to read the D well--does not have a great team around him---I would rank them Sanders/Beck (tie) and Ewers. After that, we have to see if someone steps up--and I think they will.  Watch Smith--he is my long shot favorite.

Probably not the most reliable source for comments. I do like Sanders in this next class though. I’m curious to see how he does with an OL this year.

Wouldn't wanna risk ruining that by drafting a rookie center.  I'm glad they thought it through.

I've mentioned it before but Milroe is the guy 100%. Ewers has kept Manning on the bench but Milroe also had to fight to be the starter last year after losing it and showed a lot of toughness. Also had clutch wins against Auburn and Georgia to get Alabama into the top 4 and almost beat eventual champ Michigan, and did so being the dual threat that I think we love in Carolina.

I think he could be Lamar Jackson-good.

    • I see both sides of the arguments, but compared to last year we're somehow at an upgrade over completely fried Dalton and wasn't even good in college Plummer. At least Pickett and Grier probably have some desire to make more money when Dalton was happy to just go through the motions and I will never understand why they even bothered with Plummer. 
    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
