Johnson is reportedly listening though. Some have called him their leading candidate.

Also, having an executive who played till 40 tells me they wouldn't necessarily ball at an older quarterback.

Yes but Johnson listened to almost everyone this round. Lol.

Again, I think the odds of Johnson to LV are probably in the order of 1-2% likelihood.

Rap Sheet might disagree.

Brady is said to be going "full court press" for Johnson, including having an extended conversation with his agent.

Lol. I could care less about Ian Makeupareport. His track record is pretty sketchy. Classic "be first to report" guy.

He can press all he wants, fully or otherwise. So is every other suitor. 

Doesn't make them more likely to gain his services.

Don't know. We'll see. 

To be clear, Rapoport isn't the only one talking about it.

I don't really see why that would matter for them. They have a QB they like and they would be drafting one of the best two non-QB's at 4. That's one of the least impactful moving from 1 to 4 scenarios I can imagine in recent memory.

That's still a massive loss of draft capital. In the 1st round alone, the value pick differential going off of the standard chart (which is a rough guideline to be fair) dropping from #1 to #4 is the equivalent of the #12 overall pick.

Rex Ryan Is lobbying for the Jets job. 

Oy 😕

The Jets might be in a the same boat Tepper found himself in where their wish list kinda has to start where everyone else's ends. If someone has another option they're probably gonna take the other option.

Yeah but, again, that has very little actual impact unless they were banking on trying to trade out of #1. The impact to the talent they get will be almost nothing(in theory).

I don't think he got canned for that win. I think he got canned for not winning enough and also for better coaching options being available. 

Kraft is leaning towards being a dysfunctional franchise, IMO. Will be interesting to see what happens moving forward with Vrabel.

Granted. 

I'm hoping we got lucky. We pretty much knew that getting lucky was about the only way Tepper was going to get a good head coach.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By CRA · Posted

      99% of my complaints generally are front office complaints.  It may not appear that way always but that's where I have been for some time.   It's also why I constantly talk about random parts the last several years....  to this day, if they were going to draft Bryce Young....I thought they needed to do specific things.   They have literally done the opposite.   In a certain world, I would LOVE an AT.  A Bryce Young.  An XL.  All sorts of people.  How they have chosen to put it all together here? Meh.  I still think if Bryce Young is your QB....the easiest and obvious play for a team....would be a dynamic slot WR, a rec RB, and solid rec TE.  Spread it out.  Let him be the point guard.  I still think this team is being built for a different type QB....one that a Jake Delhomme style QB would thrive more in.  Which is in fact the heart of what Canales has been around and done.  So I nitpick it all.  If I had thought Bryce Young was going to rebound....I would have NEVER been all in on XL like I was.  I was all in XL because I thought the BY experiment was about to over quick.  Ladd would have made way more sense if you believed in BY IMO.   I don't think this team did.  I think Dave drafted XL because they were mentally ready to move on and did after 2 weeks.  and I thought the Frank think was bologna from the jump.  I just have hate the pairings and plan every since Rhule year 1.   Rhule year 1 was the last time I really thought this team was in a good place to give it a go.  It went horribly.  But....the zoomed out plan was pretty logical all around.  Rhule just was not ready and a clown on top of that.   I still think the Dave, BY, XL, Tmac build 3 round pegs and a square one at the end of the day.  Worst thing to happen to BY was to land in Carolina IMO.   Which is often how the NFL plays out.  Where you land and what the org does matters probably more than raw talent/ability often.  I do not actually have a problem with Adam Thielen in a vacuum.  He is overperforming in a vacuum all things considered.

      Bryce Young could throw for 40 tds and 4500 yards this season and my gut instinct still says you would triple down on hating him.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      They should just be predetermined slotted contracts.  I feel like that was the intention of the current system, but they left too much room for interpretation about guaranteed money.  I agree though.  You play for who drafts you or you don't play.
