I am a Coker fan. But if as the season progresses our 8th overall pick and our 2024 first round pick aren't ahead of him in this conversation then there needs to be some very warm seats on the coaching staff and in the front office and even on the scouting staff.

Don't disagree but Coker's the only one who has really showed results.

How do we know this isn't just BS? Like two weeks ago we saw an article saying Coker put the work in and that he actually lost weight?

I'm the biggest 89 fan but I don't put a ton of weight into what he says about other WRs. Bottom line Coker is the playmaker of this offense.

This is from months ago when the players first showed up. Coker showed up out of shape and the Panthers put him on a conditioning assignment

It really seems people get offseason and preseason confused.

He arrived at OTAs in bad shape.

They put him on a plan and talked about how he was changing his body.

He came to camp looking better. 

 

I cant figure out why this is difficult to follow.

89 a big Renfrow fan.  Didn’t seem to like much about Coker at all.  

which I get him liking an overachiever like Renfrow.  But Coker you would think checks a lot of boxes 89 usually likes.   But he seemed to dislike a lot about Coker more than his weight.  

Before the 2024 draft, Smitty was the only one of his national stature that gave Coker such high praise. He called him the best route runner in the class. So how is that squared?

I think Smitty just says whatever it takes to get attention at the moment.

      Rams are willing to deal one of the 1st rounders for all-pro talent in secondary

      By strato · Posted

      They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world.

      I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).

      It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
