why?

because I am bored at work and the huddle is my main source of fighting the boredom. Figured I would try and spark a unique conversation on here.

But if you prefer we can talk about how racist the media is or talk about how everyone on the planet knows the read option is killing us or the 80 million dollar backfield we have or cowher or cams attitude or Riveras emotionless demeanor or you get the point or what a cheapskate Richardson is.

I'll bite.

Cam

Gross

Kalil

Bell

Smith

Olsen

Kuechly

Nope, couldn't do it. Can only get these 7. However, guys that I think will become part of the new core are Keek, Alexander, and Norman on defense, and Silatolu, Cam, Kalil, Olsen, Stew and Bell on O. Smith and Gross are on the list above because I think we still need them next year, but beyond that, not so much.

As far as I'm concerned, the following players have a spot on this team next year:

QB: Cam

Receivers: Smth, LaFell, Adams, Olsen

Running Backers: Stewart, Tolbert, Poole

OLine: Gross (good leader/teacher), Campbell, Bell, Silatolu, Hangartner, Kalil

Dline: Alexander, Hardy, Keisier, Dwan Edwards, Ron Edwards (both Edwards are good for depth, should not start full time)

LB: Kuechly, Beason (only if restructured contract), Davis, Anderon,

DB: Gamble, Norman. I'd be fine keeping Nakamura as a backup safety.

ST: Medlock, Nortman, Jansen

Sooooo....we need backup quarterbacks, depth at TE and FB, at least one good WR, a decent OT and OG, 1-2 good DTs, at least 1 good DE, 1 good CB, 1 good FS - - and some options on the return game. I'm fine keeping Johnson if we can restructure his deal but Dwill and big money are better to us on other teams. Rather have picks.

    • Depends, if we would have hired Wilkes and kept darnold were probably be right about where we are now. An average team fighting for a winning record and nfcs crown
    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.
