Athletically, 100% agreed. I think Jones' ceiling is very low. 'Bama QBs flourish in college because of the 4 & 5 star talent all around them. Heck, look at Tua. Before his injury looked like the best thing since sliced bread. He went to Miami with mixed results, at best, and I don't think it anything to do with lingering affects of his past injuries at 'Bama.

We were not at the top of his list, but that doesn't mean he didn't want to come here. The only team confirmed he blackballed was the Patriots.

Well at least it seems Fitts is not predictable or settling for lesser talent players all-the-while gifting them overpriced contracts. *yet*

What Carolina and others offered for Stafford
45catfan replied to Calboyz13's topic in Carolina Panthers
I don't think it was a full tell. Honestly I think the Jets are in the market for a premier veteran QB. Unless they can get the Jags to budge out of the #1 spot for Trevor, I don't think think they necessarily draft QB and start from scratch all over again. Sets them back another 2-3 years. -
Rams tried to trade for Aaron Rodgers first
45catfan replied to Ja Rhule's topic in Carolina Panthers
Could LA get to the Super Bowl with Rogers at the helm, particularly in year one? Sure, but TB actually did it and LA is just trying to copy it. Imitation is the best form of flattery. However, when you are using THE standard as your reference point, be mindful that your expectations might not be met. -

This is dumb. Only 3 scenarios here guys and NONE of them involve the Panthers. 1) Watson plays this season in Houston (Most likely) 2) Watson sits out the season 3) Houston caves to Watson's demands (least likely). Even then it won't be until MUCH later in the off season, after the draft and FA (probably during camp) when they realize his threat of sitting out is real. -
(WE COULD USE A CB) Baron Browning (LB, Ohio State) - On two occasions, Browning made two strong tackles for loss in the run game. One coming early in the game was an effective job filling quickly and attacking downhill. The second came on a third and short play in the second quarter where he disrupted Larry Roundtree enough to slow down, allowing for his teammates to rally. KJ Britt (LB, Auburn) - Britt was all over the field during this game, with a plethora of really good plays. He was a strong tackler on rushing plays and tipped a pass in the red zone that was almost intercepted. (MLB IS A HUGE NEED) Amari Rodgers (WR, Clemson) - Rodgers didn’t do much in the first half, but shined big time in the third quarter. Twice Rodgers caught touchdown passes in the red zone, flashing his ability to create separation out of the slot. Demetric Felton (WR, UCLA) - Felton had an early touchdown reception that took advantage of a large cushion in off coverage. Felton also had other big receptions during the game, showing off his speed and route running. While Felton played running back at UCLA, he’ll likely be utilized as a moveable offensive weapon in the NFL. If SAMUEL IS NOT RE-SIGNED, BOTH PLAYERS MAKE SENSE https://www.bigblueview.com/2021/1/30/22257928/2021-senior-bowl-winners-and-losers-from-the-game-nfl-draft https://youtu.be/5Sqkcyv99lc I watched the game last night on YouTube. I agree with most of your guys. I don't know if Britt normally plays with that kind of motor and passion, but I liked his energy. I thought Keith Taylor played very well and was slightly better than St.-Juste. Big winner was Dillion Randunz. I think he may have given up one pressure and no sacks. He looked the best of the LTs. If we were in the market for a RT, Spencer Brown was solid and has a nasty streak. Dude got chippy with a couple of D-linemen. Heck if we miss out out our preferred LT, I wouldn't mind drafting this guy in the 3rd and moving Moton (almost a lock to get re-signed) to LT. Get sneaky and pay him RT money and hopefully receive solid LT play. Most of the IOL looked good except Deonte Brown. He will be a huge liability in the passing game. He played to his weight, meaning he looked slow and out matched in his pass protection. Athletic D-linemen will eat his lunch in the NFL on passing downs especially on stunts where he's going to need to move off his spot to pick up the unblocked rusher. Another disappointment was Paddy Fisher. He played slow...in actual speed and reaction time. I wouldn't be upset with either of the slot guys you mentioned, preferably Felton because of his 'tweener status, we could get him at least two rounds later than Rodgers who is a more of a pure slot weapon. Felton could actually fill the Samuel role if we lose Curtis in FA because he's played at bunch of RB and WR.

Rams tried to trade for Aaron Rodgers first
45catfan replied to Ja Rhule's topic in Carolina Panthers
My point went over your head. Let me use the NBA as an example then. You have a good team, but can't seem to get over the hump in the playoffs for the ring, so said team goes out and tries to get Steph Curry because the Lakers got Labron that lead to a ring. My point, trying to buy a championship just because it seemingly worked for another team. The Chiefs can ultimately screw up that plan for the Bucs. Rogers is arguably better than Brady at this stage, but not by much and Aaron's edge is purely in his arm strength. However, that wasn't my point. -
If that's the case and it comes to fruition, expect the 49ers to trade up to #7 with Detroit. As long as that trade occurs prior to draft day, I kind of wish it would. That way we know Detroit is out of the QB market (won't be moving up) and all be have to do is move 2 or 3 spots ourselves ahead of San Francisco to get our guy. The Bengals are not in the QB market and Philly seems to be trying to patch things up with Carson Wentz. If the 49ers move on from Garoppolo, they are the biggest threat to jump ahead of us.

Uh, he had a couple of D1 offers, but chose to go to NDSU because they are a powerhouse. He can't help that his conference chose to shut down the season. LOl! He won't last outside of the top 10. Teams could care less what you think of him. If we are dumb enough to pass on him at #8...assuming he's even available then, multiple teams will be on the phone to move up to snag him. Oh yeah, are you a Chinn fan...you never answered?
-
Yep, the same level of players on his side too, otherwise they would all be at FBS schools, right?
-
Good for you man. You a Chinn fan?
-
16-0, zero picks and a Natty as a redshirt freshman. Lucky, I guess.
-
South Dakota, another FCS school.
-
This is why you take Lance at #8. Some actual film breakdown.

Rams tried to trade for Aaron Rodgers first
45catfan replied to Ja Rhule's topic in Carolina Panthers
Yep, thinking they can replicate the Buc's meteoric rise due to Tom Brady. News flash: like him or hate him, there's only one Tom Brady. -
Slater falls to #39???
-
NO!
-
Not me and I'm arguably one of his biggest supporters here. In fact, I WANT him to sit at least the first half of the season and will be fine with the entire season. The one qualifier being he gets some game reps in clean up duty or if we're getting blown out. I would prefer he gets some spot duty before assuming the helm.
-
We may not be drafting a QB with the 8th pick but maybe later...
45catfan replied to musicman's topic in Carolina Panthers
Okay, officially garbage then. -
You don't sit the #7 overall pick for multiple seasons. Complete waste of valuable draft capital. If you think a QB needs 2+ seasons to be ready, you don't take them that high.
-
Me as well. I didn't hate the CMC pick, I thought we could have traded back and still got him. The only way I wanted to stay at #8 (ironic draft slot, right?) was if Thomas or Fournette fell. Neither did. I figured OJ Howard or CMC would be there if we traded back. Howard fell to the Bucs mid-round. Would CMC have lasted several picks later if we traded back? Again, I didn't hate the CMC pick, simply thought it was a bit rich at #8. This was the draft year when I began going hard core for a starting caliber TE to compliment and eventually replace Greg Olsen, not to mention the subsequent drafts. What a obvious, glaring oversight by the team brass.

Teddy will start the season folks. Trading for a veteran upgrade is straight up mortgaging the future and even if we draft a rookie, they aren't starting the first game if Teddy is completely healthy.
