Daniel Jones benched

I don't follow the NYG but looked into his history there. Jones was Gettleman's baby but Gman retired.

I see no sufficient upside in Bryce worthy of more investment of time or resources, and am not restricted by fandom in my thinking regarding options. There will be a few of them and Jones could be one. 

They turned down the 5th year option and he had the 2022 season and no more. BUT, he played well and they went to the playoffs. And won a game. He set a record adding 70 yards rushing to his pass totals of 300+ yards and 2TDs (sounds like a record that Cam would have held).

They sucked it up and paid him and only got like 4-5 games from him and eventually it was torn ACL halfway through the season. Those can be two year injuries as far as getting all the way back, and he is just now about a year removed.

I'd keep an eye on him at least, he was showing enough to get a new deal. Wherever he goes it will be prove it, and his last prove it worked out pretty well.

I finally heard some insight into this. 

Basically devito is under contract for the next 2-3 years and lock is not in their 2025 plans.

 

Brian daboll agreed with others about giving Jones the big bag. Maras want a 49er correction ala brock purdy made the trey lance mistake lesser of a hit. Daboll has the remaining season to fight for his job and they want it done with a control asset.

IDK about that narrative. If you want the coach to fight for his job, why saddle him with a QB he doesn't presumably want?

I am doubtful that this has much to do with ownership.

I still think we are going to pick up Drew Lock next year. He has connections to Canales and Evero (If Evero don't get dumped for Saleh).

Why on earth DeVito is starting over Lock is beyond me. 

DeVito will put butts in the seats for one thing. He is a local boy made good. Where are they playing? If at home I would start there.

He did okay last year and they may want to see what he looks like, as well as Lock who may yet get some play. Who knows....

    • awesome interview. Love the guy. 
    • all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
