A draft day trade is imminent,the Beathard-Hurney effect


Recommended Posts

everybody knows that martey hurney is a bobby beathard protege,and everybody knows that hurney has made some type of draft day trade every year he has been here. most of the trades have been giving up future picks in exchange to move up into a particular round,or to get additional particular round picks. that is the bobby beathard way and it won him a few superbowls a long the way,but he also picked ryan leaf over manning.hurney has continued to go into each draft with the bobby beathard mentality,and this year will be no different. it will not surprise me one bit to see the panthers trade for another first round pick this year and give up future picks. look at what beathard did at one point in his career.

I Think that there is about 3 to 4 teams that will be willing to trade up to the number 1 overall pick. And i believe those teams are the Arizona Cardinals, Washington Redskins, Cincinnati Bengals and the Minnesota Vikings. But I will put my Money on Arizona and Cincinnati...

the only realistic 2 from those teams are arizona and cincy...minnesota is too far back and washington doesn't have the ammo to move up

Clausen may very well be dealt to a team this year if the CBA is hammered out before the draft.

If that happens someone needs to be fired. A second round pick who had zero investment completely wasted. I disagree with that though because our FO isn't that worthless, hopefully.

You would in your backwards thinking. Last time I checked trading a player was not a wast.

Wait a minute!

was a new CBA agreed upon?

LOL I wish, but the likelihood of it happening before the draft is slim to none.

I was just throwing it out there so if it happens I can come back later and brag.:D

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
