This was a really good segment. All fo the rookies profiled seem like they have bright futures, although the announcer's foreshadowing on Cam says it all:

"Cam Newton may have rewritten the rookie record books, but he seems destined for greater things. He may soon be the face of the NFL."

I liked the part where he was talking to d-low before the pitch option that he scored on. Great behind the scenes stuff but heck you guys might be right,maybe we should trade up and get rg3 or luck.

Overall it was some good content in the show but we all have seen it before, though it was nice to see. They could have put together a 2 hour special just on cam.

he's not good though i mean he threw all those interceptions in the pro bowl

LOL...Some fans are quite threatened by your QB, aren't they.

Cam throws interceptions and they act like it's the end of the world. Peyton Manning threw 28when he was a rookie and it was barely a blip on the map of conversations.

Welcome to the world of the NFL. Where nothing is ever what it appears to be.

      Smitty on TMac

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
