  1. Meh, just draft some guys. We just got capital back, don't immediately give it up. We're in full demo mode anyways. Join the fire
  2. Christian Wilkins is a guy who will make a big impact for his next team. Miami is in cap hell so there was no re-signing for him there. Houston has been mentioned but if they land Armstead instead, Wilkins is a dude to watch. Will be one of the more coveted FAs
  3. A bit higher than some projected but not ridiculous given his performance (and a playoff win) Dominos are starting to fall
  4. Guard wise, Javion Cohen could be an interesting later on target. He was a Bama transfer to Miami this past year so he's got the experience & relationship w/Bryce. And doesn't have much uncertainty at position, he's an LG.
  5. Also, note that on top of the Badger being a fit, and from a reputable OL program, his nickname can be Tortellini which is just perfect for a center.
  6. Diontae Johnson trade speculation seems to be heating up. X news on a guy I know a few on here like for us:
  7. Top pick would be Biadasz. He excels at what Bozeman did poorly (stunt protection, pre-snap communication, & combo-blocking) which seems like those could be priorities for Canales' staff. He's also only 26. He's a guy to throw some money at. I'd also imagine we're looking at Evan Brown from Seattle.
  8. This team has so little sure things that you can start anywhere, and grab anyone, anywhere in FA and the draft. This feels so different than other seasons...we are as bare bones as it gets. I would say Center is much more important these days with calling protections and helping out inexperienced QBs, so it's a good one to prioritize at start. Get a guy you know you want for your scheme. Bozeman wasn't it.
  9. Powers-Johnson is definitely not making it past 33, but he could shape up not making it past 25ish. With center, you can land a starter all the way to the 4th round..and there's a few instant-starting quality centers in this draft after P-J. Barton is interesting. Limmer, Frazier, Van Pran-Granger, Nourzad, Samac, Bortoloni all legit candidates in the 3rd-4th. Kind of drops after the Wisconsin kid.
  10. If they aren't McCarthy/Penix/Nix fans, it definitely makes things interesting. And it also is interesting the Bucs are willing to have Baker look around. Per Vikes insider, they're eyeing him. https://heavy.com/sports/minnesota-vikings/baker-mayfield-kirk-cousins-nfl-buccaneers/ Could be a wild FA & build up to this draft.
  11. Our implementation of it and players used for it sucks.
  12. He's about the only target that seems like a good addition longer term. He's got great ball skills, great downfield tracking ability and is aggressive. And Indy does have a pass rushing need. Burns for Pittman and a 3rd-ish could be an interesting approach, albeit, a bit of a pipedream.
  13. The way I see it, 2 teams have huge pressure to land a QB somehow and get it right - the Vikes and Giants. Those two teams are going to be more aggressive than others with a new HC. Daboll and O'Connell need to find their guy and get those teams in shape.
  14. For sure with the Bears and WAS. I'm just unsure about NE. They're still a bit of a wildcard in my eyes and I think teams covet MH Jr. enough to at least call them. Part of lying season is having this chatter about Odunze and Nabers being on par with Marv. It's all fun/meaningless speculation but my 2 cents of it.
  15. I just think the market for MH Jr. is purposely being deflated and there's a bit of movement that could happen for him as much as a QB.
  16. Players we drafted still on the team since 2016: 2016: (0/5) none 2017: (1/7) Taylor Moton 2018: (1/8) Ian Thomas - likely gone 2019: (1/7) Brian Burns 2020: (min 1/7) Brown pending, maybe YGM 2021: (4/11) Horn, Brady, Tremble, Hubbard - TMJ will be gone momentarily 2022: (3/6) Icky, Mays, Barno 2023: (5/5) In tact but DJJ, Zavala and Jammie aren't long for these parts
  17. Damn man, you're right. 2nd in DROY votes after 2020, then follows it up with an excellent sophomore year, becomes a fan favorite, and then falls into obscurity. Just wild. He's a guy that could end up elsewhere and we look wildly foolish in how we used him.
  18. It's just what I gathered, take it what you will. I place a lot of stock in how coaches manage the week and run Monday through Friday. Rivera & Wilks together were the best we've had in this respect. All TBD in my eyes, nothing to judge yet.
  19. Possibly. They could also be movers if a team wants MH Jr. over AZ (I.E. the Chargers or Giants) Could still end up landing who's left of Maye/Daniels ahead of ATL, Minny, and DEN
  20. He is in the NFL sphere, and knows his way around an NFL locker room and staff. Rhule was a true outsider that had no idea what he was doing. Canales definitely has this softer/super-positive persona that seems a bit of an act. I get that. But digging in, where he's different seems to be on the practice field. He's a lot like McVay in how he engages during practice. Runs with the units, is pretty hands-on and detail oriented with the play and execution. It is all a TBD; have no clue what it will turn up and produce yet.
  21. FA is kicking off and there's an abundance of candidates on the block this year. Gonna be an active week my amigo.
  22. *This is for all news around the league/not just Panthers Let's kick this off-- Mac Jones traded to JAX per Adam Schefter
