I've had horrible luck with rb's lately. Jahvid is out with concussion problems, and now McGahee will probably miss some time with a broken hand. Demarco Murray and Hardesty have already been picked up so all that's really left are Michael Bush Ben Tate and Delone Carter. I'm leaning towards Tate what do you guys think?

Is this a decision just for one week? I'd probably go with Carter since he is getting the lion share of the carries, and the Raiders have a bye this upcoming week. Another one to consider is Alfonso Smith (RB for the Cardinals) since Beanie Wells is probably out 1-2 weeks. If Wells stays out 2 weeks, that means Smith gets to start against the Rams horrible defense.

Its pretty much a decision for several weeks. I'm not sure how long McGahee is out but the word is its at least a couple weeks and Jahvid is being urged to sit the rest of the season. Jahvid's fill-in has been Earnest Graham and rumor is he's done for the year. So now my only back is Daniel Thomas, who doesn't put up great numbers anyway. Jimmy Graham, AJ Green and Steve Smith are the only people keeping me afloat right now.

Graham is Blount's backup. If that is true about Best, I suppose you could try to get Maurice Morris or Keiland Williams. Like I said, if you're desperate, try to get Alfonso Smith.

      I dont care as long as he plucks the ball out of the air like he did in college, maybe it will rub off on XL and make him up his game too.

      My boy: My wife has been cheating on me and I have proof! Here, look at these texts where she's congratulating some other man on how well he pounded her out like she'd never experienced before to the point he rearranged her IUD! I'm gonna post these texts on social media for the whole world to see! Me:

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By Panthers Rhule · Posted

      I still think it's too soon to say last year's draft was bad. I think those who do are the eternal pessimists. We had 4 players who contributed last season. Two were starters. It's possible all 4 are starters this season. How is that a bad draft? I know it's because our roster was so bad but still, they are on this roster so it's the only one that counts.  Before I say it's a bad draft I prefer to wait and see how they play this season. It's possible we may have FIVE starters from that draft playing the season. Anyone who thinks drafting 5 starters by season two is a bad draft should visit a psychiatrist where they can get a prescription to help them live happier lives.    I'm not saying it was a success yet but I damn sure ain't calling it a failure yet. Most players don't make it. Most of those who do need a little time. One season isn't enough time which is why they are still on the team Leggete, Coker (UDFA but still we got him), Sanders, Smith-Wade and Wallace all showed promise last season. If they all take a step forward then it was a great draft. If only 1 does than it was an average draft. If they regress then and only then will I say it was a bad draft.  Fans often have unreasonable expectations compared to the reality of draft results. I believe this draft will shine as I think it's going to better due to the depth of the class but I also believe we will look back at 2024 and say that was a good class too. I think we have 5 players from that class who will be starters or rotational pieces for the next couple of years at least. That's a win.
