20 Of Our 22 Starters Were Originally Drafted By Us

So clauses and Armani were fox's fault even thOugh we drafted them knowing fox was leaving? The reason we can draft like those teams is for two reasons 1. Hurney is not as good as he thinks he is or our fans think he is, the other organizations have much better drafting. 2. Hurney and this fo are too loyal, contracts are big and we take care of our own rather than trade them and get value for them when we can. Teams like the eagles and pats and steelers cut and trade player instead of overpaying them. They are almost always on the obviously positive side of trades.

Hurney needs to stop being so loyal and learn to trade for value not for a player. At least that is what other teams are doing. These last few years have really sucked. My biggest thing with hurney over his whole time here is never touching the qb position until now. seems like a good team is being put together so hopefully he can redeem himself with a team he drafted. I'll be happy when I see wins.

The steelers and Patriots have basically traded their way out of becoming superbowl powerhouses. When they gut their roster for draft picks every year and then trade down to accumulate more players it left them devoid of superstar talent. I am not saying either of these teams are bad, however i would like to point out that getting rid of the players they had during there SB winning years has caused both of these teams to miss out on more superbowl wins.

I don't normally say anything about grammar but that is just too funny. And enjoying a Superbowl we have yet to win sounds more like a fortune teller than a realist.

You don't have to be a fortune teller to predict a Superbowl for the Panthers. Look at the moves we made this offseason. Wow. Look at his track record and tell me how many guys actually have a better record than him. Don't count the years that Fox held him back either. You can go sit in the corners with the rest of the complainers if you don't believe.

Which definition of "realist" includes predicting the future?

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
