There's a couple of reasonably priced former OG starters

CRA thinks that all of our problems can be solved in one year when we went into the offseason 16 million over the cap. He likes to argue for the sake of arguing. He makes good points, but he is asking for perfection. No team is perfect, even the ones that win the Super Bowl.

 

It takes some time to be a playoff contending team year in and year out. We have made progress and I think we are not that far off.

Give me something that supports Amini, Piggy and Bell being something more than below average last year...

Something other than your opinion. An example would be say Pro Football Focus showing them grading out average, a reputable independent outlet, something....

Personally, I think Amini took lots of lumps yet with clear progress made last year, another offseason in the scheme, and full camp....he can make the jump. However, he hasn't made the jump yet and hasn't proven to be such yet.

Piggy is definitely below average. So is Bell.

False. You haven't read my posts. I have clearly said Gettlemen can't solve all problems this year.

I have said that in response to people posting that since we drafted 2 DTs in a row and not other spots ...G, secondary, WR must be solid and not weak areas.

I don't ask for perfection...it is just annoying people try to act like some pretty obvious weak links aren't such. I don't want perfection, I just wont go along with the everyone wearing a uniform is good approach. We still have areas to improve at....acknowledging those isnt expecting them all be fixed today.

I simply am not about buying the Baghdad Bob approach of viewing our team.

I think everyone is aware of our deficiencies, but we got off our high horses because it's a lot of fun down here. You should try it.

First. You are the only one bringing up Hangman. I guess that makes your point more valid

 

Second. The same metric you deny us, our opinions, is what your are basing your assumption upon. Something is wrong in Denmark.

 

Third. You may not ask for perfection. But you are negative about every aspect of the team but Cam and Stewy. This guy is too old, these guys are below average. We don't run our team properly because we misuse all our assets. It never ends with you.

 

Lastly. You make broad sweeping statements that cannot be measured. And then act like they are holy writ because they are almost impossible to refute.

 

You are at least consistent. Got to give you that.

Yeah, it's like, facts be dammed, I have my opinion.

 

CRA is like a lot of the kids on here. They just know their perceptions are right, and all who oppose them are wrong. For some reason or another, they feel they have to be negative in their approach. I guess negativity gets more responses, so it is the approach of choice.

1. Lots of people bring up Piggy...it started last year when he sucked. That isn't a unique CRA soapbox

3. Simply not true. I am more optismitc about many aspects of the team than many Huddlers. Also, pointing out games like the Seattle game and saying Smith still has major flaws....isn't being a hater of Smitty. Outside of the right side of the OL and secondary our team looks strong for 2013...that isn't doom and gloom. Big picture I do think we need to do a better job of actually drafting young talent around Cam bc our talent isn't young and really is from another Panther era.

Lastly, saying Piggy, Bell, and the secondary are below average isn't really a broad crazy statement. Again, it is supported by those outside Carolina. There are plenty of outlets that evaluate those things and have echoed it

And I do realize opinions are opinions. That is the point of the board. To discuss them. I can handle different views and prefer to talk to those who think different. IMO it often provides the best insight and causes me to think in different ways. Many here simply can't handle opposite views....they go into insult mode (and that isn't directed at you )

    • with arm strength people often get stuck on the distance  arm strength in the NFL is moreso measured in speed / velocity .which of course is how long does it take for  the ball to travel from the time of release until it reaches its target ? & u beat world class speed with more speed on the ball...just saying  
    • No GM hits 100%. I'm well aware. But what a GM has to do is look at the roster, what's available, and future contracts and go from there. XL was a one season wonder in college. He has speed. Who cares. He body catches and his hands are bricks. Speed doesn't matter when you don't actually have the ball. There were other receivers available with better resumes. XL was a project. Fitts loved projects. You don't have the luxury of projects when you just traded away DJ for a QB. 1st round WRs need to contribute now.  Brooks was a luxury RB pick we didn't have the luxury to make. Who cares if Dallas was going to pick him. We had holes all over our defense. Chuba was coming off a fresh contract. We just inked 150m interior line and then centered it by moving a guard to center that had suffered 2 season ending injuries. The most critical area on our line was being held together by a bandaid and a prayer. No surprise when it didn't work.   Wallace is getting better but Wilson was sitting there waiting to be taken. DPOY for college football right there for the taking. That was a gimme pick. If you're going to take a risk on an injured player, the 3rd round for Wilson made a whole lot more sense at a position we were rest stop TP thin at.  4th round and on aren't going to be heavy contributors unless you're lucky.  He did well on the trade for Jackson. Coker, I believe he offered the largest guarantee. He actually got more than some late round picks make.  Those 1st 3 picks, IMO, were straight up whiffs.  Looking back at Fitterer's picks, I think he tried to plug holes because we had a ton of them. Problem was, he wasn't very good at it and he loved RAS scores and developmental players with a coach that couldn't develop a Polaroid. He tried to do too much. He was impatient. His other problem was he panicked during the draft and couldn't read or understand the flow of how drafts tend to go. DJ Johnson was the prime example. We needed an edge rusher and he jumped in at the end of the run instead of starting it.  Morgan's first year looked exactly like Fitts to me. Lots of projects.  2nd year looks better.  We'll see how 3rd year goes. FA also plays into all of this as well but that's a whole different topic of how it played out and planning with regard to drafting. 
    • I judge how good our players are by the way a defense covers them. XL draws no special coverage. Coker on the other hand always has a man over the top. It still doesn’t matter. You be the judge.
