I mean, its possible, just convenient for us conspiracy theorists.

Yes--this is what I mean.

Not reading 6 pages of witty yet appropriate anti-Bryce one liners--so excuse me if this is this thread, but am I being biased or skeptical when I question how one sprains a thumb in a car accident? Never heard of that happening. It sounds like they want to start him again to see how he is fermenting, but without a reason, it makes them look wishy washy. Who's with me!!!!???

He has a limited body of work, but 8 receptions in three games in the rotation on 8 targets--that is promising. That is about an average of 36+ yards per game---over 17 games, that would be over 600 yards--with bad QB play, I'll take it. But he has not established himself by any means, but he has done all he can do.

Lotta WRs got hurt last week. I expect there to be some offers.

I thought I read that he recently criticized his teammates for not doing their jobs--that was probably to encourage a trade--what does he have to lose? Now watch him get injured Sunday. I think we could get a day 2 pick for him

Thanks for reading the real journalists' tweets to us.

No, I was referring to having the #1 pick already. I think, in that case, you have to take the best QB if you don't have one. Trading up? We have proven we can't do that.

The only way I would want #1 is to take Ward (if he turns out to be the real deal) or trade back.

You too. Well, we are usually in agreement, unfortunately. Thanks for the outreach.

Probably a perfect #2 TE. His blocking has been better than I thought

AT is not coming back regardless--offer him an extension, and if he does not take it, shop him. This business of announcing a player is not for sale when that player is a cornerstone of a franchise that has won 3 games since August 2023 is ridiculous. Apparently the QB position at Carolina is haunted--we should not have laughed at Darnold. But when your QB sees ghosts, who ya gonna call? Sorry.

I said that last year when I focused on him. He was slow to react and not a good blocker--if he were, he'd play some Hback and help block edge rushers or he'd lead on ISO--we don't do that.

They really are all over the place, but I think Ward will be (by April) the first player taken. I have not really researched them, but I am very intrigued by Rourke. Ewers just seems like an injury waiting to happen, but he is mentally tough. Beck has all the tools. I noticed no Allar for you....I like his upside.

he is our best TE and will only get better. It is hard to tell since the Panthers do not carry a QB on the roster.

Hope you are healing and well.

40% of the OL is out. Our starting ILBs are out. Our best DT/DE is out. Our top OLBs (Wonnum, Clowney) are out. Mingo is a bust. We released our solid nickel and substituted him with a fifth rounder making rookie mistakes today. This is like watching preseason football.

Not so fast. I hear we are going to put Mo in the game in the second half. Mo Mentum.

He is our "blocking" TE....Helping us block out what winning was like.

I have not seen a lot of Washington, but we are a trap game for them (between Ravens and Bears)---we could take em down. Grrrr!

if you look back at the OL we had then--whew!

Yeah, he is being compared to these others coming out--some with five or even six years of college experience. At age 20, he sure seems to have a lot to offer.

Out of curiosity, what do you have to say about his being sacked 23 times in five games? You probably know him better than I do, but that was a red flag for me. Try to be objective (I am). What are his biggest weaknesses, in your opinion?

That is how I feel. The word "entitled" comes to mind, and that may not be his fault. His dad has already made the comment to the media that he should be playing for the Dolphins. Any time a QB is sacked 23 times in five games (not sure how he did last night) that could be a QB problem--not an OL problem. Again, a lot of this was by watching a few videos, reviewing stats, measureables, a few comments--not what I would consider scouting on any level--first impressions. But I am not sold on him. Cam Ward? All day. The others? Not sold yet.

I am probably most fascinated with Rourke out of Indiana. I disagree that some say Gabriel is a later round guy--I think he goes day 2 at the latest--but I have not put in the research yet--and when I do--I am often wrong.
