why didnt CAR try and get a WR in FA? WR's in the draft are a crapshoot it seems.

No one was free, the other teams wanted picks and the players wanted cash. Imagine that.............. We would rather have a cheap guy on a rookie contract than we would have a proven veteran who wants to get paid accordingly.

Next years QB class is looking rather top heavy with lots of NFL caliber talent available (if some jr's declare) in round 1. Considering how much faith the FO is putting into an undrafted guy with few starts and no big veteran as a backup, I'm starting to think like Zod, we really need to keep our 1st round pick just in case this whole season blows up. This isn't like last year where all our pieces were in place for a run at the playoffs. All we needed then was stability at the QB position and we saw how that turned out.

Next year's first is probably a top 15. No way would I trade that regardless of depth.

Plus with a rook salary cap prolly cheap as well.

Stay the course, do not trade away next years first for this years second round talent as we did last year.

If we had this years first we could be trading out of the first round and really stockpile the roster.

Wow.. people are finally starting to gets it This is what I've been saying. Moore is unproven at this time, if he fails this season we need to be in position to be able to grab a franchise QB.... If we were the colts... okay give it away, but were not and next seasons success depends on a lot of unproven young players stepping up. It could be great or a train wreck.

Doesn't matter if the draft isn't deep next year... There will still be top talent in the top 10-15.... Draft depth refers to the later rounds, not a Top 10,15 pick!

Doom and gloom from Pstall!?!?!?

I still don't see us being worse than 10-6

hell, I think we could win 8 games with our current roster, but what do I know?

I'd like to see us trade down for a 3rd and (2) 5ths

Hey I would to see then go 10-6. Would not bother me at all.

We need to stockpile talent. Although the track record in rds 2 have been bad, make it happen now.

I think both are possible!!! We may be 10-6 or better, or we have top 5 pick. Between injuries, and young players having to step up.... anything is possible IMO.... and a lot deals with how well Moore does with a full offseason in control, and teams game planning fir him.

He likes rookie contracts. It doesn't get much cheaper than that.

i meant to ask you about your opinion on this. i dont understand how richardson penny pinching or showing "fiscal responsibility" these year can help him if our team tanks during the season. we almost have to a winning record to prove his point if he is trying to make one. i doubt he can go into the cba meetings and say "Hey guys! pinch pennies like me and your team can be 7-9 just like mine":D

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
