He made a point in saying this..Probably laying the ground work for some real tough cuts and letting players walk.Also could mean no franchise tag for Hardy.Hope he has some tricks but those big FA signings may not happen..another season of one year rentals and low level signings.We will see..draft will have to be the way again. Going to be tough once again to fill all the holes with quality players. Also Shula isnt going anywhere so kill fhat idea....hope Hurney is enjoying the golf course.....son of a bitch.

Yep those rb contracts have really handcuffed us. I could see having one big contract there. But 2? Nothing personal, stew and deangelo are great guys but we now have glaring holes elsewhere that we can't easily fix. Sent from my SPH-D710 using CarolinaHuddle mobile app

I took it as Hardy being a goner. 

 

Truthfully, our defense still has the ability to be solid without him.  He's a great player, but with our set of DT's we still may be able to generate a rush.  I'm not sure whether this catapults the need for a DE high in the draft or not, most likely the middle rounds.

 

Either way the most important thing this team can do is fix the offense, and create room for resigning Cam.  If Hardy gets in the way of that, then we need to thank him and move on.

Didnt sound very reassuring about keeping Hardy...

 

read between the lines.  That was the first shot sent at Hardys agent.  Hardy wants to stay here.  If we tag him, hes getting traded to possibly a non contending team.  DaveG isnt gonna overpay hardy with his cap as fuged up as it is.  Hardy will push his agent to get a fair deal done.

i hope youre right.. but he definitely made me feel worse than before about our chances of keeping him.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
