Brooks has a full practice Wed

Worst part about the pick is that the 2025 RB class is way the fug better. Only 3 RBs were rated as 2nd/3rd rounders including Brooks, and none had a first round grade. This year there looks to be 10 RBs with up to 2nd/3rd round grades and a couple with first round grades.

It’s very likely that some of the 2025 RBs in round 3 are as good as Brooks and they aren’t coming off ACLs so we’d have them at a rookie deal for 4 years instead of just the 3 years we’ll have Brooks due to the injury.

If we ever get a GM with brains, we would have had a future anchor at C with the 2nd round pick last draft and our Chuba helper with an early 3rd or 4th in 2025 and had better overall draft value.

Fitterer (and Hurney) were the same as Morgan and liked to pick positions that were weak in the draft. That's like thinking Pickett was a better QB option than Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson because he was the 1st QB taken in the 1st round. One day we’ll have a GM that realizes drafts are weak/strong at different positions and it can change every year.

the 2025 class is an embarrassment of riches.  Morgan was a fuging moron drafting this kid and most certainly the way the did it.  But hey he punked the cowboys.

Reminds me of when Fitt punked the Saints by taking Marshall one pick before them or when Hurney stole Grier from the Patriots when Maxx Crosby was on the board and was one of our private visits. We draft scared and worried about other teams instead of just drafting well with what your given.

    • Perfect example why Zod said they are getting rid of the Tinderbox. 😉 Segmenting which swallow has the best airspeed velocity is what divides us! Bravo Zod. 
    • I've been reading around on different websites about our team and OTAs and minicamps.  There are several members of this team that need to step up.  These are a few of mine.  Please feel free to add to the iist. 1. Bryce Young, Obviously the No. 1 person who needs to step up.  Bryce has been given everything a QB could ask for.  We have a top tier offensive line. Big WRs that can get open and make plays.  A decent running game.   Over tha past couple of years we have really put enough players in position to help him.  He has to be the guy to step up and utitlize his players. 2. Jaelan Phillips, Just because of the massive contract we gave him.  He has to be the leader of the pass rush.  He has to be in double digit sacks or the money isn't worth it.  He has to bring Scourton and the rest of the group to the top. 3. Ejiro Evero, Two years ago he had the statically worst defense in NFL history but was given a reprieve because we focused primarily on the offensive side of the ball for Young.  Last year we improved and we just didn't have enough to stop elite QBs.  This year he has been given just about everything a defensive coordinator could ask for.  IMO he has 4 cornerbacks that have impressed this offseason.  He received solid help for Brown with Hunter and Phillips. Our weakest area, LB Corp, we signed Lloyd to solidify that group.  With all the tools he has this season he needs to show why we kept him after 2024.  IMO he has no excuses this season.   Lastly, IMO is X. Legette. He has shown sporadic flashes but nothing to justify being a first round pick.  The WR room is stacked this season and any number of players from that group could make the 53 man roster. XL is going to have to show out this preseason.  At minimum, he performs well enough to possibly get a trade to a team needing a WR.  I think with T-Mac, Coker and Brazzell in the mix for the top three position we would be wise to utilize the remaining WR spots for players with a larger ceiling than XL.  Training Camp and Preseason will sort them out and IMO if XL doesn't flat out show out he's done in Carolina.  Feel free to add to this list.  And of course, your opinion. 
    • I'm all for it. Improved moderation sounds great. A number of thoughtful dudes and I believe 100% of the thoughtful women that used to post here have been gone for years.
