Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol

Or we could just play the season out trying to do the best you can(same as most of those teams) and then let the FO worry about the fuging draft. You know....like all NFL teams do.

Did you see the Browns stadium last night? The riots that happened when they beat the Steelers because everyone wanted to tank so badly?

Oh....that didn't happen at all. Imagine that!

The Browns would beat the Panthers 34-13. They have their qb and enough talent surrounding we don't. Different expectations.

I just can't see New England passing on Tmac especially when they have been searching for a #1 WR for years.

I think push comes to shove, if they can't sign a top LT in free agency, that's the route they'll end up going

Yes they need WRs, but they also need to protect their young franchise QB, and with a HC who was a defensive player, I think he'd want to build that OL for his QB before finding him a WR if it's one or the other.

If they are able to sign a top OT at the start of free agency, that would certainly change things, but if not, I'd be shocked if they don't go that way with their first pick.

For a team like that, going OL in the 1st and WR in the 2nd makes WAY more sense than the other way around.  And again on them having a defensive player as a HC, if they don't go OL, I think defense would be next in line as a defensive minded HC probably doesn't want his first two 1st round picks to be offensive guys anyways.

I expect us to move up to 6 this weekend. Our strength of schedule is pretty weak compared to some of the other 3 win teams. I mean I’d love to win this weekend I just assume it won’t happen.

I put it out there earlier in this thread, the teams ahead of us in the draft had a lot of games against each other while our only realistic winnable game left (outside of an unexpected upset) is Dallas.

The Titans and Jags still have to play each other twice for example too.

Cleveland winning last night was huge, especially as they have a tougher schedule than us, so if we both now lose out, we'll get the higher pick due to the easier SOS.

We will see. I still hope we end up in the top 4 when all is said and done.

 

I'm fine with Sanders/Hunter/Tmac/Ward anyone else would be a letdown for me.

I'm still not touching Hunter

He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why.

He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Make Yosh Nijman a good offer or not?

      Icky was always a weak pass blocker come out of college. Cross was the premier pass blocker in that class. Much easier to learn run blocking than pass blocking. I never expected Icky to ever become an elite pass blocker. If he was average, that's all I really expected. I did expect him to be an absolute mailer in the run game.

      We aren’t in danger of being in the basement anymore and if we keep drafting well we could get to the playoffs after a while. I don’t mind if we get a new QB and coach eventually but we are “stable” and I’m grateful for it.

      I prefer 9-8. Reason being, winning season shows overall improvement and is the 1st step to establishing a winning culture. Backing into the playoffs with a losing record doesn't show you earned anything. It's the product of a weak division. If playoffs were based off records, most likely you're not going because another team(s) have a better record.  Chances are too, the next season, you're going to have a tougher schedule and a couple of those bounces that went your way are going to go the other direction and it's another losing season and no playoffs.  There have been 5 teams to get into the playoffs with a losing record. The 2014 and 2025 Panthers are 2 of those teams. Losing record trip 3 isn't exactly something I would be proud of doing. We have 9 playoff appearances so far, 2 of them simply because we won a shitty division. Another one would mean 30% of our appearances are only because we were the least stinky turd. That's a stat I'd want to flush.
