Good write-up thanks

Mark Sanchez says that Darnold hasn’t been given a real chance, per Joe Person at the Athletic.

Interesting. I could see that. Many "draft experts" have Sewell and Slater graded very close to one another

Good point. The issue here is that if we take Pitts or a WR at #8 we would then HAVE to take a OT at #39 But what if Richie Grant or Asante Samuel or Trevon Moehrig are there in the 2nd round? If any of those player are graded higher than an OT we would then pass up a better player to fill a need. BPA goes out the window and we would reach for an OT which is exactly what we want to avoid doing

Jesus!!

2021 CAP NUMBER: $2,287,500

@MikeKlis Details of A.J. Bouye's 2-year, $7 mill deal with Carolina: 2021: $2.45M sign bonus $1.075 salary, guaranteed Total: $3.5M 2022: $2.18M roster bonus $1.27M salary $50K per game roster bonus Signing bonus was good agent work as Bouye's 2-game suspension doc comes out of salary. #9sports 9:32 AM · Apr 15, 2021

I feel our TE position is a bigger need than our WR position. We would take Kyle Pitts at #8 before we take a WR

Current Panthers draft needs: OFFENSE - LT, G, slot WR, TE DEFENSE - FS, CB, 3tech DT

great work

Tony Pauline and Trey Wingo https://www.profootballnetwork.com/2021-nfl-draft-guide/

he's more attractive

Rather have Kawann Short

Cowherd actually predicted the Darnold trade a few days before it happened.

SAM DARNOLDQB, CAROLINA PANTHERS Ex-Jets C Ryan Kalil believes new Panthers QB Sam Darnold did not have enough freedom playing under ex-Jets coach Adam Gase. Kalil, who is now retired, was one of Darnold's centers in 2019. “It was a system that didn’t allow a lot of individual freedom. It was very, ‘You do it this way and that’s it,’” Kalil said. “A lot of the scheme was pre-determined (plays) based on what they thought they were seeing from the sideline. It didn’t give Sam a lot of room to grow, in my opinion, to make decisions on the fly. ... It wasn’t a system that allowed him to evolve and make decisions on his own. ... And I think that’s why ultimately the Jets made some (coaching) changes, too.” It's a charitable reading of Darnold's struggles in New York, as Gase was not the coach for Darnold's rough rookie year in 2018. Darnold showed modest improvement under Gase in 2019 before going off the rails in 2020. Something that is not up for debate is that Panthers OC Joe Brady will be by far the best coach to ever call plays for Darnold. The quarterback's supporting cast is also better than any he had in the Big Apple. 2021 is now or never for the former No. 3 overall pick.

Cecil Lammey @CecilLammey Ah, what might have been. League sources tell me #Jets turned down #49ers first-round pick for Sam Darnold earlier this offseason. Joe Douglas & co. had concerns about Zach Wilson's shoulder & wanted to see his pro day. Now, super confident & will likely be no2 pick #NFLDraft 12:56 PM · Apr 14, 2021·Twitter Web App

The Fly is so young here. I believe this is Independence Day one of his finest films.
