Yeah I disagree with Mike here.

Clowney, for instance, is a signing that would be akin (or even worse) than trading for Ramsey.

And Morgan has shown he doesn’t care about mid to late round picks given he just dumped them into an always injured 2nd round back last year.

 

So I’m not sure what Kaye is even talking about when he says it goes against everything Dan has done as GM.

I'm honestly not sure which way I see it going.

2-3 years of Ramsey is a lot better than you'll get out of most 4th round picks.  I think it makes sense if they have room for his tremendous cap hit, because the guaranteed money is already paid out.  Pretty low risk high reward move.

I feel like this is a crazy take.  Obviously the plan wasn't for Brooks to get injured again.

You really believe Dan doesn't care about 2nd round picks?  He was taking a risk, hoping it would pay off big.  Brooks was the first running back off the board.  They obviously saw a ton of potential there.  Life happens sometimes.

You can't view things in hindsight and act like you knew them ahead of time.

We did not have the luxury of rolling the dice though. Most of the board wanted the center (Frazier) that made the all rookie team.

That is a different discussion, though.

I don't disagree, but I think they are trying to get back to our former identity and become a tough, hard nosed, run first team.  If that is the case, the pick makes a lot more sense.  We were deadly with a one-two punch as much as I dislike D-Will.

We were? We had two winning seasons out of DeAngelo's eight with the team.

Times have been dark buddy.  We haven't had a winning season in 8 years.  2 out of 8 sounds like an improvement.

Nostalgia may be clouding my perception a bit, but let's not act like we have our poo together lol

We definitely don't. I'm just saying that we didn't when we were concentrating tons of resources into RBs either.

I feel like we had more issues back then, though.  Whether you like the regime or the plan, they do seem to have a plan.  Revamping the team group by group and building something.  I am admittedly overly optimistic when it comes to the Panthers.

We have a lot of issues. We're just hoping that we may have some of them fixed. We still got a see it play out on the field first.

I'd say they did a good job fixing the o-line.  Our running back room on paper looks good to me.  WR group is the most exciting we have had in a long while.  Thielen said it was the first time since he has been here that he doesn't know who will make the roster and that the floor is raised.  Our defense looks very different than last year with a clear focus on stopping the run which was a huge weakness.  They can only do so much at once.  I think we have plenty to be excited and hopeful about.

      A lookback at Morgan's first draft

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      By Saca312 · Posted

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
