Tom Grossi's 30 NFL cities in 30 days tour for St. Jude's Hospital. It started in Los Angeles, and he has been to Phoenix, Vegas, SF, Seattle and Denver so far. KC is the next stop. Somewhat interesting if you like Grossi.

I agree. That was a free story. I think they gave up trying to charge a la carte prices when they recognized they didn't know any more than us stupid fans.

They need to check-in at Panthers Reddit Re-education Camp.

I think many people believe he will have about as good of an environment to grow into a being a good qb, while sitting behind Stafford for a year or 2 or 3 and being coached in the McVay system.

No, no, no I don't want to give the impression that I am being critical of this draft. I will counter that by saying we all suffer from what I call the Preseason Swoon, when we see players that we think are going to be contributors, and they "flash" potential, and tantalize with these dreams of what they could be. Then they get in a real game and promptly disappear, or worse, get roundly abused. The only pick I am skeptical about, to put it nicely, is Brazzell. Not a great track record coming out of that program, and I don't think we have the necessary personnel, or person, to take advantage of the skill set he may have.

Pretty good summation, although I would caution just a bit that there might be a little of over-enhanced expectations. I do agree with the assessment on BPA. It was exceedingly clear they had a specific shopping list. Early on when there was some discussion about the tackles available, Morgan was asked if he was willing to give up a 5th to get Freeling, if it came to that. I think the only way it wasn't a left tackle with that 1st pick is if none that were valued as a 1st were still available.

Better do it now. The price is only going to go up.

They are off-season, propaganda, fluffy, hype videos for sure. I found this to be much more interesting, and revealing though than the 1 made after we drafted Young and it opened with Fitterer declaring how the plan was always to get the team assembled AND then drop the superstar rookie qb in and be immediately taking the league by storm.

It's something. Playoff team from the previous season. Defending division champ. 26 out of 32 teams. We all know the reason why.

Well, it's Superbowl odds, and while no one in their right mind was really expecting a Superbowl run, I am more bothered by giving better chances to our division rivals, and ranking us once again, among the dregs and bottom feeders of the NFL.

I think he could transition to guard and be very effective. He is middle of the pack at best in pass protection, and what is asked and expected of a left tackle. While no salary in the NFL would be considered peanuts, guard is not 1 of the premium positions. Because left tackle is a premium position, he might very well test the market. As stated, his health and mobility will be a big determiner as to what he might get offered, if anything. Personally, I have thought that he would/could/should move to right tackle after Moton is retired, and not to be blunt, but that should happen very, very soon.

I don't think we are done with him. I do think we are done with him as a left tackle though. Guards and right tackles are easier to find, so I think there might be the offer presented to stay on at 1 of those positions, with the appropriate contract numbers, or to hit the market.

Superbowl chances are pretty low, near the bottom of the league. They do state upfront that offense is more consistent year over year, and is more impactful in this model. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48845972/2026-nfl-season-football-power-index-projections-super-bowl-chances-simulations

This was a very good and worthwhile watch. A mild spoiler..the pick was always going to be a LT. Even if it meant some wheeling and dealing.

I'd give them Young. As it is the Panthers are not 1 player away from the Superbowl, and the Browns like collecting ineffective starting qbs.
