For those who pray, please keep me in your prayers. I am traveling with Compassion International to Burkina Faso, Africa to visit two little girls I sponsor and to help with whatever else the organization needs me to do. I have received 3 goverment warnings the last three months, and one as late as Jan 8th. Al-Qieda has been kidnapping westerners and killing them on the border I have to cross. Please keep me in prayer and my family when Im gone.

I didnt post this to be a thread about religion or some kind of controversy, just asking for prayer. If you dont believe in prayer, I am ok with that and whatever you believe.

Thanks.

I will be gone from Jan21st to Feb 5th.

Safe Travels, and good luck. You're doing something really wonderful, so I wish you all the best.

And don't worry, if anything happens, the Huddle has a "No Man Left Behind" clause that we all blindley signed when we registered on this message board, so you've got a few hundred Carolina Panthers fans (and even a few of the more lucid Saints and Falcons fans) who've got your back.

One thing I do have in my favor is fat people are hard to kidnap. Of course as of this morning I have lost 85 pounds in preparation for this trip in 6 months time.

Don't you have a lot of tattoos also? That should be very intimidating to them.

Either way, here's to a safe return :cheers2:

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
