Listened to Brugler a bit this morning on tAFS who always has a bit of tea with midseason scouting.

Scouts are viewing 2026 as a 2 QB class right now - Simpson & Mendoza 

Other notes:

  • Sellers is this lingering "TBD" that could go top-20, but could also stay in school for more NIL..he has options.  More refined than AR coming in, but could benefit him to wait.
  • Dante Moore sounds very likely to return to school
  • Stock on Pause: Leavitt and Mateer's injuries put a pause on their assessments
  • Stock Down: Nuss & Allar have fallen off radars with their seasons. Nuss was high on scout lists but things really took a dive this season.   
  • Watch for: Jayden Maiava who could be a 2nd type & Brendan Sorsby 3rd/4th (& rising) but he could go back to school and transfer

With CLE, NYJ, NO & LVR ahead of us (for now), not likely we land one in R1.  

Probably looking the vet route and a mid-round flier IMO.  

I must say Sellers looked like ass today. Looks really slow in the pocket. I feel like Simpson would be a 2nd or 3 rounder in a good qb draft, more of a game manager type but it's slim pickings and there all like 7 teams ahead of us in the draft desperate for a qb so I don't see him falling to us, even if we could manage to move up to 9 or 10 in the draft with some L's he's probably gone. Plus i'm starting to notice a trend with these Bama qb's transitioning into the pros lol. Hasn't worked out great

Lance is 2-3 as a starter. Willis’s wins are just more recent because he has an opportunity recently. I’m not against Willis though. Similar idea as Lance. Needed time to sit and learn coming out of college. High ceiling due to physical abilities. 

I didn’t realize Lance had started and won a few games. I still like Willis better but having actually played some does make Lance more appeal able.

      NHL Olympics Thread (Or just Olympics in general)

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Dude, I think I might be having Jarvy withdrawals... I ripped the sleeves off of all of my t-shirts in my sleep last night. Every bite of my Alpha-Bita cereal spelled Seth, this morning. And, I took 7 naps before lunch. I'm losing it guys! Jarvy's Jaunty Band of Jaggoffs are getting more play than he is... smh Team Canada doesn't treasure Jarvis the way he deserves. He should take his band down to Liechtenstein, get a bag of passports, and start his own Olympic team! The raw animal magnetism of Jarvilicious will bring in a handful of NHLers on its own. And, since the IOC believes in collective punishment, he could have his pick of the rookies. Then, just fill out the rest of the roster with the maple blooded great white northerners who couldn't make the top squad. Can't trust this assembled awesomery to just any old Liechtensteinien with a clipboard and a whistle. Gotta bring in a legend worthy of this gold medal gambit. A hockey HOFer with the balls to buck the system and the aura to match our maverick. Huere geil, Vaduz!!! 2030 Gold Medal guaranteed!

      NFLTR: Panthers Offseason:Team Needs, pending free agents, draft picks

      Tennessee isn't trading a QB on a 2nd round contract that has starting experience.  That's bad business.

      OT is the top priority as it is both an immediate and future need.  I wouldn't be past trading up slightly to get the guy we want.  You need that rookie contract right now.  Icky is a dead 17.5 million for the season.  Morton is 20+ mil for the season, Hunt is 20+ mil for the season.  There needs to be forward thinking regarding the future.   Caleb Lomu is a left Tackle, he's a solid prospect, he may be the best pick for us now and in the future.  I would seriously consider cutting Hunt after 2026, and let Lomu and Icky fight for the LT job, loser moves inside.  Icky's future may be at guard after this injury anyway.  If Damien Lewis keeps up his level of play he will need to be paid sooner rather than later.  Yosh and BC can be our top two depth OL at an affordable price.  You will need to look at OT again in 2027. Getting an EDGE for the sake of getting an EDGE outside of the top 10 is pretty risky.  I wouldn't be against eyeing someone like Cashius Howell, Derrick Moore, or TJ Parker in the 2nd (even if we trade a future pick to move up) or DDS in the third. I'd love to see us try to sign both Leo Chenal and Matt Millano in FA.   Chenal for the blitzing element we are missing from our LB corps and Millano for his elite coverage.  They could both work in tandem.  Remember, our FO has deep ties to both KC and Buffalo. I love thinking about the draft, but until Free Agency hits, we are clueless.  Looking at the strength of FA and the draft, OL is priority #1, LB #2, and EDGE #3.  We know what happens to Bryce when protection falls apart.
