What strengths are we referring to specifically? I mean when you have a guy you can't trust to throw to the middle of the field with confidence for physical and not mental reasons I think that has to go into the equation when you're talking about people losing jobs. If there is someone who should be losing their job present day in year four it's anyone that had a voice in the process of willfully choosing to limit themselves and cut off their nose to do so. *looks at Dan Morgan*

Well if we're going down that rabbit hole then most of this subforum and a majority of the fanbase would be barred from participation because they didn't want Kon Knueppel they wanted Ace Bailey or someone else. And none of this is unfolding the way it is without Kon Knueppel. Just reality.

I don't see the logic in focusing on perceived negativity for a franchise that hasn't won a playoff series in about a quarter century. Let's get in the playoffs and win and go from there. If these Hornets can finally get over that hurdle and win a playoff series you will see a different vibe from the fanbase that is for sure and it will have been earned.

Yeah.....and so many never wanted him..... Absolutely hated the pick. Same with Miller. We should be very glad the Hornets front office finally trusted better judgment in both instances. For whatever happens from here at least we finally have some young promising talent reminiscent of the 90's Hornets.

Dan Morgan is very likeable. He's a very notable former Panther. One of the best LB's I've seen play. But he is the GM now. Have to learn to separate the two. If he is unwilling this offseason in Bryce Young's 4th year in the league to address the QB room in a meaningful way and have a viable fallback plan at the most important position on the field then he deserves any and all criticism. I would say the same for any other GM in the same circumstances.

This logic legitimately disgusts me. I could see if this were a QB who had more often than not flashed consistent top arm talent and had shown instances of taking over games but this is not that at all. It's time for the fourth year #1 pick to elevate the moving parts around him rather than need everything to not only go perfectly but those around him to make herculean efforts and the other team to implode to be successful. No sir. Build a complete roster and focus on the defense primarily. Do what you can on offense without making all in moves to the detriment of the rest of the team as we have already done. The steep investment behind center either rises to the occasion or we go another direction.

Field = F Locker room = D+ Woof.

I obviously agree we should have been building through the draft at OL all along. Not in in swoop. Just each year addressing it. That would have been the prudent approach. But like everything with this franchise from the owner on down they have had the "get there itis". The bad trade they made to select Bryce Young meant throwing out any and all logical pathways. They cannot make this mistake anymore. From here on build methodically and allow QB to resolve itself organically. When the time comes if we need to draft one we will have a well rounded roster with which to develop him in.

This is welcome news.

Sexton was very likeable and played hard but he also had his cons. I agree this is a big upgrade all around. Hopefully he ends up sticking around too since he has local ties.

I'll believe it when I see it if a deal actually happens. But if so great. Go younger in the QB room altogether.

What would significantly help serve the next QB is a balanced roster sir. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total Here take a gander at the salary cap totals to the offensive line for each team for 2026. Take note of how far down the list a number of playoff teams and the current Super Bowl champions are.

Blowing out the Bulls in Chicago is always nice. Looks like Coby White is going to fit in here nicely.

I can see the logic but the glaring issue remains. His hands are not good. I remember when we tried to make Swole Bones a thing at TE. If it were that easy we wouldn't have had such a void at the position over the years.

I am all for BPA this draft. And no trading up. Let the chips fall where they may.
