Please tell me you’re joking 

About which part of the post?

Blazing Saddles would get made today and be a vastly different movie if the studios thought it would make money. And considering Brooks' age, he wouldn't be the writer, so not as funny.

As for the Space Balls sequel, Brooks isn't writing it. He's getting paid for his name and a producer credit. Josh Gad and two-three others are writing it, so yeah, it's not going to be that funny.

The space balls part. It sounds not funny.

Even though a ravens 5th and a panthers 6th is like 3-7 picks apart?

Even if they win it all and we have the #1 pick, it would still be about 10 picks because of the compensatory picks

But it still was a terrible trade, just sayin, it’s probably going to end up about a dozen or so picks better, not that it means anything at that point in the draft anyways.

Addition by subtraction. He did not want to be here and we were not resigning him. The unbelievable part is we got a 4th for Mingo.

I hope his career works out for him. I personally don't feel he is a very good NFL caliber WR at all and a complete wasted draft pick but no reason to hate on him. I don't know what kept Mingo from putting it together and becoming something here but I definitely think it was time for him to move on away from here especially with Coker's potential coming to light. I sure hope that 4th rounder we got for him is used on a pick that will make a difference with the team to somehow feel better about drafting yet another WR that just didn't work out here.

Yeah. Great athlete. Not an NFL wide receiver. Honestly think he'd be better on defense. In the future, carolina needs to make sure receiver prospects actually have ball skills. How does he track the ball, does he catch with his hands, does he highpoint balls, does he catch low passes, does he catch in traffic? Maybe start there. Then field awareness and route running. All of that is infinitely more important than size and 40 time.

Been saying this, it fits here: the guys running the offense have their roots in WRs. We should get different evaluation moving forward.

I think the XL pick had helping Bryce as the top priority, but it is looking okay. The Coker acquisition shows they are competent at least. I am more a cynic than an optimist but think some optimism is in order at least on that count.

    • Right. I didn’t think it was good either but the QB sure did. He was the defacto number one target, not Chark, was my point.
    • We could quibble about was that an answer to what I asked but I  don’t see it as being one. Look, he agreed to this Evero thing. Up front. Apparently anyway. Took the job with those conditions in place. I buy that and will work off of it.  This play calling issue isn’t the same thing. I am not in the mood to delve into Canales’ shortcomings and get out the pitchforks at the moment. I will abstain from that topic and stick to the quandary the dissenters who want to usurp his play calling power, find themselves in. As far as that goes I am still on the fence and think the play calling is Bryce centric and the play selection/playbook is affected. That does not mean I know that if the playbook was open he would be great play caller. Just that he is hampered right now.  Inserting an OC not of Canales’ approval changes the original parameters of the assumed agreement.  Unless you think Tepper placed a contractual prescription to allow Tepper to dictate that he can insert a play caller of his choosing after a time period if he is not satisfied with Canales’ work.  Which, do you really think that is in play?  I do not.    Unless it is, Canales has the option to yea or nay. As I said, it could be forced on him. But they only do that if they want him out.  And as of now his stock is up, I would have to say I don’t own any but I think it is up. He had the stadium rocking, the team in the playoffs, and has that sorry lil draft pick trending upward. Even at this very low rate.  I think he has ‘hand’ right now as they say on Seinfeld. This is something that may get play in the 2026 season, not now. IMO.
