I didn’t want Stafford but it wouldn’t have been a horrible decision to bring him in. My only concern with him is his age and durability. People pooing on Rhule are overreacting. I still want us to go all in on Watson but not give up any of our young players.

Dude, have you seen Cam throw? He’s done as a starting QB. Stop living in the past.

Monk just balled out tonight. Keep him!

Made SportsCenter facebook page.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want this guy in the first or otherwise. I'm actually kind of concerned that Rhule is giving him so much praise. Perhaps, it's just coach speak.

I think it will depend how he does in combine and pro days.

Interesting article that could see us potentially trading down to grab Mond in mid-late first round. https://wbt.com/6196/matt-rhule-impressed-by-kellen-mond-at-senior-bowl/ Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule gave high praise to Texas A&M quarterback Kellen Mond. The MVP of the Senior Bowl was coached by Rhule and his staff this week and left a strong impression by throwing for 173 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday’s college All-Star finale. “We’re talking about a really, really football smart guy here,” Rhule said after the game. “You give him a play and he knows it. He kind of got into a rhythm there in the third quarter, just ripping some seam balls, making some plays. I think he’s got a bright future.” Mond finished an outstanding 2020 season, leading the 4th-ranked Aggies to a 9-1 record with a 41-27 Orange Bowl victory over No. 13 North Carolina. The San Antonio, Texas native threw for 2,282 yards with 19 touchdowns and three interceptions. In CBS Sports’ latest Round 1 mock draft, analyst Chris Trapasso has Jones and Mond going in the first 32 picks, but not Trask. We’ve seen plenty of projections for Trask in Round 1, but these are some of the first projections for Jones and Mond in the first round.

Well we tried the other route and never had a back to back winning season. I'm all for it.

Bring back the 100 post requirement

Yep, the biggest reason is that Watson wanted Texans to hire Saleh

Makes sense but you may be underestimating what it will take to trade up to 5. In a normal year, that may be fine but there will likely be competing offers

Even if that’s true, those two teams will be receiving trade offers

I was really hopeful he would be there at #8. But all indications are that there will be a feeding frenzy in the draft with an unprecedented number of teams looking for a QB. Our biggest risk is someone trading up to grab Lance who I think is the most promising prospect after Lawrence. Am I overreacting?

27 pts, 9 assists in only 31 minutes against the Bucks. His plus/minus was +37 He needs to start

You think Watson decides what Texans want in return?

I feel proud watching that clip

https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/gm-report/watching-matt-rhule-at-the-reeses-senior-bowl-is-a-treat-you-dont-want-to-miss The hiring of Matt Rhule by the Carolina Panthers seemed to have upset a good portion of the fanbase and after a 5-11 season, there is doubt from that portion as to whether or not he is the guy to get the organization turned around. We've mentioned many times before on here that Rhule has the blueprint to succeed in rebuilds. He did it at Temple and Baylor who were both in far worse situations when he took over than Carolina was in. It took him a couple of years to establish the culture and winning attitude but he was able to do so and turn those two schools into championship-caliber programs. Rhule is someone that many people around the league believe will be great in the NFL because of how smart, passionate, and determined he is. If you haven't been watching the practices being run by Rhule and his staff at the Reese's Senior Bowl, you need to tune in. There may be only one or two guys participating at the Senior Bowl that will land with the Panthers but he is coaching these guys up as if they were his own players. That's something that these players will appreciate and will be something that will stick in their minds when their rookie contracts run out four years from now. Below is a clip of Rhule chewing out the team as a whole during Wednesday's practice. If his passion for the game doesn't excite you, I'm not sure what will. This is exactly why guys want to play for Matt Rhule. Most coaches are just out there doing their job to get paid. Rhule is out here coaching these kids up hard because it's what he loves to do and he wants to make these guys better so that they can go on to have a successful NFL career. Not only does being at the Senior Bowl help the Panthers' coaching staff help evaluate talent for this year's draft but it will help them establish relationships with many players. They're getting a taste for how Rhule and his staff coach and in turn, Rhule's staff gets a good feel for which guys they would love to have down the line if they are unable to select them in the draft.

I guess we'll see what Scott Fitterer is made of

Is that still true if he formally requested a trade?

I love that he waited until they hired their head coach. LMAO

Arm strength? Seriously? He was throwing to wide open receivers in college, he doesn’t have the arm to throw deep in the NFL

We talked about this all last week
