I already know I’m gonna get poo emojis for it, but idgaf…  if the FO would’ve just listened to me, we’d be fielding the hometown boy front-running for MVP this year.  Why in the world did we sell out for 2023 draft?  Like I said then… should’ve signed a stopgap for 2023, semi-tanked, and traded whatever needed to move up for Maye.  That was always my stated plan.  He is so effin good.

Never forget!

I just really hope the organization realizes we're finding ways to win games in spite of Bryce far more so than because of Bryce. We still need a long-term answer at QB. 

I haven’t got to watch Mendoza as much as I knew Maye bc I’m an UNC alum…  but from the games I’ve watched, Mendoza has that “it” factor much like Maye.  I think Maye is a superior athlete, and Mendoza is bigger, but I see a lot of similarities in their games and style.   I would trade this year’s first and next to move up to get Mendoza.  But I have a feeling that won’t be enough.  He’s likely going 1st overall, and that team probably needs him more than they need that or any trade.

i also watched a clip of Gruden on a podcast recently and they asked him about his QBs he’s looking at for the upcoming draft, and the guys he named I wasnt familiar with, I like duo and was disgusted.  And even he made it clear, he was not excited about the crop outside of Mendoza at all.  He believes in Mendoza, but everyone else was meh - and that’s my take.  Maybe Dante Moore?  Sellers is staying.  Reed is staying.  Guys like Beck and Pavia to me are just run of the mill, JAG-type QBs - I see their trajectory or output being like a Blaine Gabbert.  So, I’m extremely underwhelmed.  Out best bet is to bring in somebody like Jameis and maybe take a flyer on a 2nd or 3rd day guy to compete and/or develop… (or go after another young guy I’ve mentioned elsewhere if he’s available🤣).

Unfortunately, we will have Young here for the next 2 years at least. With that in mind, I would be a bit more concerned about an off-season extension, rather than picking up the year 5 option, similar to what the Jags did previously with Lawrence.

      Known Prospect Meetings with Panthers

      By ECHornet · Posted

      Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds.

      Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
