So glad we stuck it to the WFTs for culture. Seriously, we need to deal with Miami or Cincinnati to get a QB. Giving Trubiski a shot and trading back for a first rounder is starting to sound better and better---not a huge fan of the idea, but if we trade back after nabbing Trubiski, (2 years, $20m, est) we can use the 2 firsts in 2022 to grab a qb. If he works out, great. I know we want a QB now--but it is not playing out well for us at this time---looks a bit uncertain.

We are going to the "Run and Shoot" people. Heard it here first.

At East Western Georgia Tech State A&M Community Military College for Those who Identify Themselves as Men (The Haberdashers), Armah played some TE. I did not think he was used well here, but I was never impressed with his lead blocking.

As these teams start signing QBs, it seems Houston would think, "we are losing leverage" Right?

I think Ewing is going to be the OL's "sixth man" and they like Elfein as the LG. Aside from that, I think we are about to offer contracts to a goalie and shortstop next week.

We should just go to the orthopedic surgery wing of the NFL Hospital (I am sure there is one) and start writing checks.

I see that and we could go that direction. I think it depends on whether or not they feel Jackson can take on the #1 WRs. Hartsfield, according to Fua, played the slot some and he is the kind of athlete you want there in this defense--I can't recall it, but the secondary is not always shown on TV. I think it would be great to have Pride, Jackson and a stud on the #1-- and I see a potential need for 2 slot cbs on the roster--it is getting that wide open. I think CB will be our big signing this free agency. So let's see what happens.

In pre college season ratings, he was (foolishly) given a first round grade. He is from Graham, NC, so maybe he will sign as an Undrafted FA near his home.

I am getting pissed off with the Panthers because I need them to finish signing people so I can be more accurate in my mock draft game. Flyin' Blind here, Fitts--let's make a move.

I think we could free about $2m in cap room by cutting him. The draft is not good for TEs, but who knows?

I am glad---never a fan. They overpaid, but they have the cap room. Protection for a franchise QB?

So rounds 1-3 are the only rookie OL? If you add all the rest, then roughly 15 of about 50 started for half a season--fewer started from day 1, which probably was the point. I would not call 30% a lot, but I see your point.

Glad you said this--it is correct And Elfein is a better run blocker and puller than Reed was-- and I think Erving could be the RG--not the LT. They targeted these two players--knowing they were on a budget. I am starting to get it. They will be good in this system. Imagine if we upgraded both G spots with about $8-9m per season?

Are you all talking about Cam Erving? I think he could be the RG---not that I have heard anything--speculation-- Of course, they could let Daley, Scott, Little, and Erving compete for LT--but I think he is a RG. I think we might draft LT-- BUT if we have to trade the first and second rounder, we would have not really addressed LT. Erving gives us depth/competition at LT and a starter at RG, imo.

I think Elflein will be the starting LG, and I think we will like him. He is good in the run game he can pull and block in the flats or cross the formation and kick out. He is young, and needs to work on pass protection, but I think he will start. About Cam Ewing. He actually played C at Florida State for a season (I think his final year). He is 29 and I think could be the next RG. At KC, he looked good at G and played both sides. They paid him more than a backup, so I think he will be in the competition at several positions (LT, RG, C)? If we got 2 starting Guards out of this and they play well, this could be great. I know many of you are bummed--so was I, but these were not leftovers. We went out and got them--we targeted these two "diamonds in the rough"

Injury history. A lot of people are turned off by this, but I know that injuries tend to come in bunches--so they better low ball him because his stock, with the six game suspension, has to be a bargain. I mean, if his own team refuses to negotiate, we should not throw top dollars at him.

I read something recently that stated they may bring Trubiski back. Who knows, but that ship seems to have sailed.

we may already have our 2 guards. Not sure how they will be used, but...

I did not think they had the room. JuJu might be gone.

I LOVE this time of year.

Nah. It is a good thing the cupboard is full of LBs here in Carolina. Whew! We are heading for another year of major changes.

But everyone, I have a theory. Gather round. We basically had 3 NTs here last year, and we were not sure about Roy, who has since proven himself. I think Kerr does not fit the mold, because we want a 3T or two. We are going to add one--which is why Obada became less valuable. I stake my reputation as a person who is never wrong on this.

I lied about the 40-53 Huddlers so that people would think I am in the know like Verge. I checked my inbox. crickets.
