It’s not saying much at all, but I don’t see a better option for the roles I mentioned.

Be that as it may, he’s still the best QB we’ve had since Cam’s shoulder died. edit: to clarify, I’d be fine with bringing him back cheap to be a bridge/backup to whomever we draft in the first this year, not as a long term plan.

Good luck to him, I wish him the best.

I’d have to disagree. We never in three years (to my recollection) got embarrassed like we did THRICE under Wilks: Bengals, Steelers, Bucs the second time. Stats can be manipulated to push whatever narrative you want, but the stench of those three games was undeniable.

There were some other testy twitter exchanges between him and a fan too. Dumbass fan whining about Shaq not being at Reich’s intro presser.

Great video, love all those Burns run defense plays. Our D is going to be nasty this year. The only real missing piece is a true NT, but we have a guy or two that might be serviceable there. Brown could also do it but that might not be the best use of him.

So much for the old “guys only want to work with their buddies” myth that gets floated around here so often

Ok buddy.

And our defensive players.

It’s not because he was interviewing for HC, it’s because he actually was briefly the HC. You can’t have the guy the team was previously taking orders from drop down the chain of command. It causes potential conflict. This does absolutely nothing for any possible claim of wrongdoing.

Of the two concerns for Stroud, the scheme one is stupid because all you have to do is actually look at his throws to know that he’s the one making that scheme go. And the other, if the biggest legit concern is that he’s too chill…well I’ll take that heh

I hope not. It’s walterfootball, so take it with a grain of salt.

I love these QB school videos, by far the best tools for us regular fans to educate ourselves about QB prospects on YouTube. I’ve been watching everything available on all four top guys for months now so my opinion is mostly formed and these two videos didn’t shift my opinion at all. My top choice is trading up for Stroud by far. Levis just doesn’t do it for me. He often looks lost as a QB. Doesn’t seem to have command of his college offense so I don’t have much faith he’ll command his NFL offense. He has tools to work with, on the surface he looks like he has potential but I’m not sure he’s got it between the ears. It’s possible he develops into a really good QB and if he can nail the cerebral part of the game then his physical tools give him a high ceiling. My QB4 for this draft though, I don’t like his chances. Richardson would be my preference if we can’t get Stroud and Young doesn’t make some crazy fall down to 9 that would be highly unexpected. I’d be happy to take Richardson at 9 or thrilled to drop down to the 12-15 range and grab him there. He’s a peaks and valleys QB, his peaks look amazing. He can run with the best of them, that’s something that should translate right away, and some of his throws are just beautiful. He has really good snap and power on his throws and sometimes his placement is really good. But his valleys are just horrible. His decision making has a long way to go and his accuracy is poor overall. No consistency. If we take Richardson, we as fans are going to have to be patient. He’s going to look like trash in year one. He might not even play. In the preseason he’ll have some runs that wow us but look terrible passing the ball. We’re going to have to be patient and not call him a bust just because he looks terrible the first year or two. He’s young and has really high potential though and I like his chances better than Levis.

Pretty poor list of FAs overall, really.

Hey the first car I bought myself was a 97 prelude vtec. Loved that car

Has Reich said he’ll call plays? Last I saw he said he’s not sure, but it seemed like he won’t.

Chubby Cole Hauser looking fker.

I didn’t watch the video all the way through the first time, just finished and they circle back around to the Panthers at the end. Smitty brings up more points, including how bad Missouri’s defense was under Wilks and the clown keeps making excuses proving he doesn’t know wtf he’s talking about and is just trying to push an agenda and/or parrot a narrative. By the end he is STRUGGLING to keep up with Smitty in the conversation.

And then all the bs about “not going to throw my guy under the bus for a job I’m not gonna get anyway”. Lol gtfo here. What a joke.

The other guy don’t k ow the Panthers. He’s probably never watched a Panthers regular season game in his life. Every answer was “I don’t remember that game”. Of course you don’t, you didn’t watch it. “They were a dead team” “give coach Wilks some good players and see what he can do”. He had a bunch of good players. There is talent all over the defense, the unit he made worse when he took over, and in addition to a very good line there’s a few good players on the offense too. This guy just reads headlines and makes opinions off of that. Total clown.

The only thing Young has on Stroud is escapability. Stroud has been my #1 from the beginning.

AR does not have the arm talent. He has the arm strength sure, but the talent to put the ball where it needs to be, he’s the WORST of the top prospects by far.

No thanks. He’s good but too injury prone, too expensive in both cap space and draft picks, and too specific a skill set imo. If it was just one of those three problems I would say sure. But all three is too risky. Rather go with a rookie of we’re going to throw a bunch of draft picks at someone. The risk of not having proven it in the nfl is lower than the combination of cap space, injury risk and risk of not being able to utilize him properly in my opinion.
