Yeah, I still don't understand how he was rated #1 QB in that draft to this day. 

Below avg arm strength 

Way below avg size

avg athleticism 

Happy feet 

High sack and pressure rate %'s. 

 

I mean I get that everyone makes mistakes, I was high on AR... lmfao and facepalm. 

 

But it's so egregious that it's laughable. 

full disclosure, I wanted Stroud initially but I'm not sure he ends up any better than Young. That was a crappy year to be QB desperate.

Let's say you have 1 car.  It has a bunch of miles but it still runs.  Its not worth much but you need a car to get to work, go to the grocery store, etc.  Someone offers you 200 dollars for the car, which is more than anyone else will offer you.  Is that then a deal you would take?

But you don't have just one car.  You pay someone to pick cars for you and you have two new ones that were advertised as top of the line plus a couple others you bought for value.  If that 200 dollar car is the only one you can rely on then you need to pay someone else to pick cars for you.

vikes pickup his $7mil this year too.

this is a solid deal and it's time bryce leaves the thielen nest and spread his wings. I remember we got rid of smith as well so Cam could take up more of the leadership role.  Theilen served his purpose as a dependable vet to help the young QB but it's year 3 now. time for the next step.

 

got mid teir draft picks and more $$$ for a 34 year old injury prone wr. this is a win.

Funny, I got the exact same vibe as the Smitty trade. It's time to get rid of ole reliable and force Bryce to go through his progressions, take deep shots, and not just defaulting to the easy option of finding the guy who's definitely open for a 5-yard gain.

For a 35 year old receiver on his last year, we got a really good deal. Remember, Dan Morgan has been hitting in the 4th/5th rounds the past two years. Id rather upgrade two picks than have AT catch 40 balls, play 10 games, and still miss the playoffs. Good value.

Thank you AT for your time here!

I could have told you that before this trade. They've been hinting all off-season that this isn't the year for playoffs 

Anyone with two eyes and a pulse knows that this team isn't going anywhere this season. If not they better open their eyes.

Smitty got released because he was a dick to Cam because he was an older vet and didn't have the patience or time to wait for cam to develop

They managed to unload his contract and that's a win in itself.  The pick swaps are miniscule in value to either side. How it effects the offense is yet to be seen. My only concern is that he had the surest hands of all the receivers on the team. That's not easy to replace. 

I'm not upset at all for the compensation we got for AT. 

We did just ship off our vest pass catcher, and the vet we had in the room.  I know many will dismiss a vets value to the youngsters,  but I won't be hearing their weak arguments.

Probably. How many trades have the Panthers won the last five years? One?

Well, we did get those two first round picks for Burns - - umm never mind.

      Fvck Bryce Young

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.

      I'm 43.... I've lived half my life if I am lucky... will we ever have another team that we will fall in love with?!?

      By TheBigKat · Posted

      I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football
