He’s going to have played no meaningful football for 2 straight years. Good times. 

It will also mean that he's basically only played one season of football since HS too.

Which, if he can get healthy and become the player we expected him to be, will extend his shelf life as a RB as he basically will have only played 1 season out of the last 5, so minimal wear and tear on the rest of his body if his knee can hold up.

Just shy of $5 million guaranteed and may never have to play another down in the NFL. Not a bad gig if you can get it.

Meanwhile the guy who went 5 picks later...

 

This reminds me of the 2021 draft when we traded down twice in the 2nd round and passed on several quality o-lineman. We ended up with Terrace Marshall Jr at 58, only to see Creed Humphrey (a future Pro Bowl center) come off the board to KC a couple of picks later. TMJ was a wasted pick...and we will never be able to chalk that up to an unfortunate injury. He was just an over rated player and bad draft decision

Let's be optimistic.  It won't cost us a dime.

Hopefully he makes a full recovery and becomes the player we expected and feels a sense of loyalty to Carolina for sticking with him and believing in him through the darkness.  Maybe we get a loyalty discount on his resigning when he makes a Thomas Davis like comeback.

Still rooting for you Brooks!

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.

      With apologies to Lady Cowboy fan, any day we can screw over the Cowboys is a GOOD day…
