Yas: Shockey stands up for Richardson


CatMan72

Recommended Posts

One question I’ve heard from a lot of readers in recent weeks is how future free agents might view Carolina owner Jerry Richardson after he’s taken a hard-line stance throughout the labor talks.

There have been some reports that Richardson insulted Peyton Manning in a meeting the day before the Super Bowl. Richardson and Manning have been silent about that and New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees, who was in the room at the time, said the reports were overblown.

Either way, let’s address the question on the minds of many Carolina fans about Richardson and if players will want to play for him in the future. Let’s turn to the best and most recent indication.

Really guys? A guy that no one else wanted and we happened to sign has good things to say about the 1, repeat ONE, guy that gave him a chance?

You guys are using this as some form of evidence one way or another?

Not taking a side here because I don't care either way but that's like saying Newton's QB coach says he is the best so we should definitely draft him #1.

I'm just saying. Like Shockey would get his last chance with a team when no one else wanted him and come out and say "JR really is a duesch and hates the players"

People need to use their heads.

This same logic was used when people cited Cam's paid personal QB coach when compliments came out about him. Or when they cited Cam's mentors.

Or when Weiss spoke highly of Clausen.

Fug, just fug

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
