I am not sure of where Sanders will go. I would be surprised if he is there at 8. Dart would be a Panthers/Browns/Jets level of stupid at 8. A tackle at 8 I could see. Of course, a tackle would not be terrible choice for us. Move Ikey and his pass block deficient self to right after next year and put our 2nd year left tackle, that can hopefully pass block in his spot on the line.

I will agree on that 1, but maybe not for a rb. There aren't too many teams these days that are looking to trade draft picks to move up for a rb. Well. There are couple of teams though.

The problem with trading down is that it needs a team willing to pay some sort of premium to move up for a player they feel is worth the spend. If we are sitting at 8 and every player available is an unworthy garbage reach, what team is dumb enough to move up?

What wr prospect is big, not too fast, can't catch and has an injury? That has Panthers draft pick all over it.

Defense. We are so deficient on that side of the ball. You have a strong defense, you can muddle up games and grind things out and punch above your weight class a little bit. I am fine with Walker or Graham. If it is offense, Warren or a tackle.

He has had to expand his lawn mowing business now that Richardson has passed on.

I think we go back to square 1 on another multi-year rebuild.

I think this probably closer to the truth. As fans, we are often invested to the point that our expectations are unreasonable. I believe it was here that someone wanted to argue with me how Hayden Hurst would be a meaningful pickup and he was player on the verge of breaking out. With that in mind, I think that may be the driving force behind information like this. Did we add any impact pieces? Did we get significantly and measurably better at any spot? Did we just tread water a bit and complete a zero sum exercise in +1/-1? I think the Rico signing might be the biggest potential impact we made, especially considering the potential production in regards to the player replaced., but nothing is for certain.

According to this, things are getting worse. https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/news/nfl-projection-model-panthers-loser-territory-offseason-moves Personally, saying farewell to Ian Thomas and Miles Sanders should be seen as positives.

From a scouting report on of the mock draft sites. Sounds like the next great Panther draft bust to me. "While there is no doubt that Stewart is a physical freak with an excellent combination of height, weight, and speed, Stewart was an underachiever in college as he is a better athlete than a football player. Stewart lacks instincts as a player, has vision issues, and has struggled to finish some plays. All of those issues are seen in his career sack total of 4.5. With his speed, strength, and size, Stewart should have had some big seasons and multi-sack games in his career. Instead, he had zero big seasons of production despite being more talented than the players he was going against. Stewart is going to need to learn pass-rushing moves for the NFL, as he will not be able to win alone on being strong and fast. Stewart was an underachiever for the Aggies and never produced up to his skill set. Thus, he is a very raw project entering the NFL. It might take him a year or two of development, and his pro coaching staff is going to need patience. Stewart also is going to have to be very dedicated and work hard to play up to his ability. Some team sources said they graded Stewart in the second round, and some said they graded him in the third because he is a raw developmental project. However, team sources believe that Stewart could go late in the first round based on his tremendous skill set. He has first-round talent and plays a premium position, so he definitely has a shot at getting selected on the opening night of the draft. Stewart could turn into a tremendous pro, or he could be a bust. It really depends on the coaches he lands with and how hard he is willing to work to turn his talent into success on the field."

Many Saints fans were annoyed when we signed him. They said he was good player, and they were not pleased to see him go. Overwhelmingly, they thought we overpaid him greatly, and he just wasn't worth that money. But what do fans know?

I think Dart looked/performed better than he was, within Kiffen's EZ QB system. He shouldn't be a 1st rounder but some foolish team will probably take him anyway.

He could waive it by choice, as Watson did to facilitate the trade to Cleveland. Why would he? Exactly. At this point in his NFL life I am sure he would rather control where he goes rather than the Falcons shipping him off for a 6th rounder.

Pretty certain Cousins has a no-trade clause. They will cut him and spread the massive hit over 2 years. Well, that's what they should do, but it is Atlanta, so who knows.

He would be a good pick in the mid-rounds. Not sure he will last until then though. He would certainly be an instant fan favorite.

Superbowl champion Kenny Pickett.

I haven't seen any cut aways to her. There have been a few of Kelce looking completely bewildered.

I think we are going to be treated to some Kenny Pickett qb play very shortly.

The Chiefs defense has played mostly ok. The offense has been dreadful.

Agreed. They also have to stop the Eagles as well. A trade of touchdowns is meaningless at this point.

Their oline is not exactly a strength!

I am not the target audience for this, and that is ok. I have no idea who this is. That said, I would be happiest watching the Lopez and Shakira halftime show again.

It's close to being over. We've seen teams get stupid and blow big leads before though in this game. Are the Eagles as dumb as the Falcons?

Well, it does demonstrate the importance of having an effective pass rush.

The Eagles defense is better than the Bucs defense when they beat them in the Superbowl, but so far, the tactics and strategy is similar. Pressure Mahomes constantly and relentlessly.
