"Oh my godddd it's like Hurney all over again!!!" Or maybe...just maybe.......Hurney did things (some of which were very stupid) that every GM in the league does. It'll be even more hilariously ironic if we end up drafting Parsons at 8th overall...even though I have it on good authority Hurney is the only GM in the history of the NFL who has ever drafted a LB or RB in the first round.

All the Huddlers who still think Hurney is their GM are gonna be really disappointed if nothing happens.

What exactly did he do for the Eagles? Putting up 9 points in their playoff loss to the Seahawks? Is that where we’re setting the bar for performing?

It's amusing when he uses emojis deliberately as an attempt to project this image of being unbothered and indifferent by a heated exchange, when it's common knowledge that the emojis come out when he's madddd lol.

I read into it a little more and the allegation is that this Hensley fellow was cheating on his wife at the strip club, and these photos allegedly prove some kind of infidelity. Otherwise simply going to a strip club isn't all that incriminating for most people lol.

It'll still all boil down to the scouting/evaluation of each individual QB. What round a QB was drafted in is ultimately meaningless as a standalone metric; the only reason we reference it, is because it's convenient to make these types of generalizations when we're looking at things at a macro level. Think of it this way: if we draft Mac Jones in the 1st round vs. the 2nd round, does that mean he's more likely to succeed? Arguably less so, since we'll presumably be getting a lesser complementary player in the 2nd round as a result (i.e. WR, o-lineman).

Our o-line is a million times better than what he has had to endure throughout his career in Seattle lol.

It’s not difficult to understand what you meant to say. But you basically did the equivalent of a “You’re grammar is bad” post lol.

Well...? Don't be rude, answer yourself!

Good ole Gettleman getting his choice of the top 4 OTs and picking the worst one at 4th overall.

Lol you guys know Hurney isn’t their GM...right?

Good for him...defied all odds for a 7th round pick and had a nice career.

It would be cheaper to just trade for Jordan Love and have him elevate Teddy Bridgewater to MVP status from the bench this time!!

Just seems like your anger is misdirected when you lash out at people who say they cheer for wins no matter what (I mean you in the general sense, cause there are tons of people here who do that). If you accept teams winning meaningless games and dropping their draft position as the norm in the NFL, then why dwell on fans who adopt a positive outlook from a bad situation? All these "BuT WiNnInG CuLtUrE" posts in here in every thread just come across extremely salty and petty. Either it is what it is, or propose what the coaching staff should have done instead, to subtly secure a loss without it being egregious enough to draw attention like with Philadelphia. Anything outside of that is extremely unproductive and a waste of time.

Was Rhule a loser and a moron for coaching to win? Were our players losers and morons for playing hard and trying to win? Should we fire/cut/reprimand them all, in your opinion? Cause their actions are what actually matter...not what we sit around and say on a message board.

Hell yeah guys, Bucs have officially TANKED their draft position! What losers...sucks to be a Bucs fan!!

They should trade us Watson + a 1st so we take his bloated contract off their hands!

Huh? Are you thinking of the Texans/Browns Osweiler trade? The Jets traded Teddy and a 6th to the Saints for their 3rd. That wasn't a contract dump; he had a pretty inconsequential contract. Teddy's contract is not that crippling for us to give up a mid-round pick for someone to take him off our hands. That would be terrible.

Heard he has pointy elbows. Would...not...sign.

What does a GM even look like? You’ve got anywhere between Brandon Beane and Dave Gettleman, and this dude looks smack dab in the middle.

What's "fuging weird" and a "Q theory" is the idea that you've actually sat on this information for 9 months while everyone spends the entire season referring to Teddy as a "Brady signing", which you sit idly by and allow to propagate throughout these boards, only to wait til Hurney gets fired to chime in "Oh btw guys, that was actually a Hurney signing". Thank god we are blessed to have true insiders like you to grace us with these generous morsels of information 9 months later. The actual Joe Person special!! Maybe that is why you defend him so much. It's obviously your call whether you want to share things here, but your decision to do so comes with the tacit acceptance of any pushback or questioning that follows, especially when it flies in the face of logic. I'm sorry that not everyone slurps up everything you say and treats you as this deity whose word is gospel. Whether what you're saying is true or not, how you handled this from start to finish was weird as hell and deserving of skepticism.

Hmmm Good one. Even funnier when you consider 3,000+ of those posts were you trying to convince everyone the entire season that Teddy was actually really good.

Hmm, let's see....who were by far the two most hated members of the Panthers this past season? Teddy and Hurney, yes? Boy, it would be awfully convenient if we could tie those two together somehow and inject new enthusiasm into the fanbase moving forward....darn....IF ONLY THERE WAS A WAY!! *Enter RoaringRiot* After Hurney was fired, he is conveniently fed this narrative from his source that Teddy was actually Hurney's signing....woah! What a bombshell revelation! What an effective way to wash the stench of the disastrous Teddy signing from Rhule/Brady moving forward. That makes a hell of a lot more sense than the narrative you're pushing. During the season, many people here thought it was plausible that Hurney was kept on this long only to be used as a scapegoat when the time was right. That seems to be exactly what happened after three consecutive losing seasons. Fortunately, scapegoating is only effective if you have a naïve audience who is willing to suspend all rational thought...unfortunately, that certainly appears to be us.

I think the point of contention here is with the presupposition that Wilson is a surefire elite QB. Those types of question marks you highlighted in your first paragraph with those other prospects, certainly exist in some capacity with Wilson too. Not the same question marks, but things like his injury history, level of competition, unorthodox mechanics, etc. He is nowhere near a perfect prospect. So teams will weigh those risks against his enticing traits and that'll decide where he's placed on their draft boards.
