Offseason finally here. Let's get down to business.
firefox1234 replied to Zod's topic in Carolina Panthers
I am fully expecting Rhule to go into self preservation mode this off-season. Throwing stupid money to fix the OL and throwing future draft capital to get himself into the top 100 in the draft. I like to think it’s always darkest before the dawn but I except it to get darker. -
He will use the same analytics that convinced him that Darnold is basically a rookie.

Albright: Panthers circling on Pickett
firefox1234 replied to electro's horse's topic in Carolina Panthers
I’ve more or less accepted this. If it works out I’ll eat the crow like when I was wrong with Cam but if he doesn’t he will be Josh Rosen’d and we will pick #1. -
I’m hoping if I hate Pickett as much as I hated the Cam pick I will be proven very very wrong.
-
The problem wasn’t that everyone was surprised that Darnold sucked. The problem was why did t professional coaches know that Darnold sucks.

let's see your top 6 selections for Carolina's 1.6 pick
firefox1234 replied to BlitzMonster's topic in Carolina Panthers
I don’t really get tied to draft prospects anymore. Trade down/OL is my preference. -
Na, thats a bad comparison. Darnold has four year body of work that shows he isn’t the guy you want. Even his first three games hardly moved the needle to say otherwise.
-
But it still doesn’t change the fact that CB was a luxury for the place this team is at right now. The fact that we were able cover that position by later acquiring Gilmore shows that we did not get the best value for our #8 pick last year.
-
Yikes. Worst take of the year front runner….
-
I think one could easily argue we thought we were contenders before the draft. That is the only way you explain trading for Darnold and exercising his option.
-
I thought when we left the Hurney era we would start getting more value for our top picks but it’s obvious we haven’t…
-
The issue is not with selecting a CB but the fact we did not get proper value for that pick. Starting corners can be found later in the draft. A team with obvious weakness at OL and QB should not be selecting a corner in the top 10.

LaCanfora asks evaluators about Pickett...
firefox1234 replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
Exactly this! Huddlers misjudging draft prospects is hardly a big deal. We’re nobodies that’s what’s supposed to happen. But if paid professionals are getting it wrong more than right then they are probably terrible at their profession. -
Panthers hint they are playing a regular season game in Munich

Good thing they’re doing it when we’re trash. Don’t need to find an excuse to sleep through a Panthers game. -

I’ll never understand why some huddlers think that professional evaluators being better than some random fan on the street is some sort of thing to be praise them for. -

We would be but not Rhule. -

We gave up our top 100 picks for Darnold and paid him 18m. It’s safe to say we are currently using anti-analytics. -

If Rhule gets the sack there is a good chance the new guy will want his guy especially if we’re picking in the top 10 again. -
Hire Brian Flores as a coaching consultant.

I’d rather have Jay Z. -

firefox1234 replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
I have the same concerns. I am slightly on the side that Pickett was a big fish in a small pond. If he played in a better conference like the SEC instead of being in Pitt for his five years I would have less doubts. The plus side about him being 24 is that you are getting a mature young man who can lead the team from the get go. -

Why would Tepper not be cool with Rhule taking a Pitt guy like Pickett? It’s very much likely Tepper may even tell Rhule to get Pickett. Especially since Tepper will be as desperate for a potential franchise QB as Rhule is. -

To be honest half the issues people have with Pickett isn’t his fault but Rhule’s. He whiffed so hard with Teddy and then Darnold that Pickett get dragged down. Not saying Pickett is worth picking at #6 but if we didn’t have a lame duck coach like Rhule peoples perceptions would be a lot different.
