Thank You Hurney

Say what you want about the guy, but the guy has had some solid drafts. Almost the entire 2012 draft by Hurney played well. And as much poo as hes been given about armanti, it seems that qb to wr project has finally paid off. I give the man mad props. He may not know how to structure contracts but he did set carolina up with some decent players for years to come

Good at making draft picks or not. Those huge contracts would have screwed us over for many years to come! Thank God Gettleman Knows how to do business!

He was good at drafting in the first round. In the other rounds? "Meh" at best.

 

Armanti may or may not be a good WR in the end of it all. But all the cap problems and lousy contracts far outweighed his draft "prowess".

 

He seems like a good guy to have a beer with, though.

2011 draft not looking so good (minus Cam, of course)

The problem with the Armanti pick was that we drafted him too high. We probably could have acquired him after the draft.  Now I hate to think about who we passed up to get him (perhaps someone else would like to entertain us with that), but suffice it to say that that deal will always epitomize anti-value (if you will).

From Armanti's pick to our next pick in the 4th round of that draft (Norwood), we missed a solid quadruplate of TEs (Jimmy Graham, Moeaki, Dennis Pitta, Aaron Hernandez), Navorro Bowman, and Geno Atkins. 

 

So...yeah.

I didn't really want you to take me up on it...(LOL).  

 

Talkin' about a total breakdown.  This thread should now be fail-.gif approved, but I guess it would be politically incorrect being that Armanti seems to have finally stepped up his game.

    • Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
    • Since your being selective (and somewhat deceptive) with your comparisons, I'll throw this up so we can compare apples to apples. Both Young and Shough have played against the Rams. Young went: 15/20 (75%) for 191 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a 147.1 QB rating Shough went: 15/24 (62.5%) for 176 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT with a 81.2 QB rating   Both Young and Shough have played against the Buccs. Young went: 21/32 (65%) for 206 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs with a 102.5 QB rating Shough went: 13/20 (65%) for 176 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT with a 65.4 QB rating   Both Young and Shough have played against the Falcons. Young went: 31/45 (75%) for 448 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs with a 123.2 rating Shough went: 30/43 (69.7%) for 243 yards, 0TD, 1 INT with a 74 QB rating   Seriously, in what world is Shough a better QB.
    • Freddie? For this game? Seriously? I don’t get it. Hope we get the best version of Freddie tonight.
