We could have had Jordan Love and Rashawn Slater in those same drafts without losing more games.  Which would give us a top 10 qb and Lt.  Perhaps we just need to scout and analyze better.  

I'm sorry, this gets me every time

If you're going to argue that we don't scout and analyze talent well, then you should be the type of person screaming for a higher draft pick as the higher you pick, the less chance you have to screw it up with poor scouting, as you have more elite players to choose from.

With every pick later that you draft, your scouting needs to be even better.

This. It's never where we draft, it's our evaluation that stinks.

If I crunched my numbers correctly a Vikings win will bump the Jets SOS to.505. Interestingly, that would be a tie with the Saints.  Not sure how that works, what the next tie break would be.

Edit: Divisional and conference schedules.

In fairness to us, most teams and evaluators are bad at evaluation because its an incredibly difficult thing to do.  The number of players drafted to high or to low every year is large.  Just look at the Bears and Cardinals.

Why you got to hate on Tim Biakabutuka like that

Honestly, I moved to NC around the year 2000, so I don’t remember any panthers history before that. Julius peppers was my first memory of a Panthers draft pick, but I do remember that he had a hell if a name!

I "kept up" with the Panthers from 95-98 but I was young and had other poo to do. 1999 was the first season I stayed glued to the TV. 

I will say we have had some interesting names over the years. I'm waiting for us to sign Will Clapp just to add to the pool.

Nothing more important than seeing what Bryce has. Now we have some evidence that he can truly be a good starter in the league. I'll take that loss in draft order all day to know i have a qb. You don't have poo in the nfl if you don't have a qb. Playing a season without one is pointless. 

Fair. I was just hoping the Falcons win the coin toss and score on us. Best of both worlds.

We are in the bottom 5% in the Tepper era. That isn't an accident.

    • lmao that's a good point; but at the same time I think and HOPE Canales learned from how he operated last year, only giving us one real look against the Bills that had people shouting 'Super Bowl'...only to come out flat.
    • I mean the whole defense was trash, he was at least trying. Besides if you put a all-pro among 10 PSers, that all-world will look human. It's very hard to judge very bad units and find the best players among them. Horn and Mjack played well too, there was 0 pass rush and -1777784 run defense. 
    • I was looking back and seen Evan Neal has made the switch to OG after awful years at OT.......I wanted him over Icky for his tricep alone..... I was 100% stroud too, I was super pissed about his record setting and playoff leading start......I had arich vastly over the midget BY too. But right now, BY is about the only one on the up&up. The Texans used lots of prime draft capital to help Stroud.  It's still not ready. But if you're honestly about past drafts, these GMs are not alone in making mistakes.  I still feel they should stayed put and allowed Carter to fall in their lap, but best I know Tepper had the worst rage about landing a QB for the past 5 years. The deal is with the correct coaching staff, Baker or darnold would still be here....Baker has signed 3 years for 100 million, which is a great NFL QB contract. Tepper hiring rhule and his shitty Baylor/temple staff was a massive setback given rhule was in control too. Then panic set in an d fitteerererererer had to make a winner and find a QB. Ugh.....I hope they are back...
