stirs

If you wanted the league, and at least the fans, to think you were interested in a player, what would you do? Maybe send the GM and HC to a public event? Nice way to have teams and fans think they know what you are up to. At the end of the day, we could very well be interested and take the guy at 8, but again, we might be there as a diversion? Not certain. If he were the slam dunk pick we wanted, would we not be having Brady there? After all, the questions in Treys game are the short passes, the closing window passes, etc, which are a huge part of Brady's offense. Could be wrong, but I see it as a show.

Smoke and mirrors

I think a trout stream and tree stand don't have the same effect on your physique as the gym.

Weekly rolling average daily deaths has been cut in half in the last 5 weeks

Without the Mayo now

Panthers trade down to 12th w 49ers. 49ers get Bridgewater and take Trey Lance with the 8th pick Panthers get 12th pick and the 43rd pick from 49ers Panthers take Slater with 12th pick

It's Monday, time for the new columns

Value 1st is the QB 2nd is protecting the QB and getting to the QB - OT and DE 3rd more skill level - WR, CB 4th LB, RB, TE, S, DT, Interior OLine Very general overview as an outstanding player that fits your system or where you are only one seemingly great player away, might tilt things a bit as LG said

Number 8 pick Lance, Teddy, CMC, 2022 1st rounder to Texans Watson to the Panthers

I remember they hype about Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith. Both were looked at as Number 1 prospects. Who would it be, was the big question. Then Rodgers fell all the way to 23

Keep in mind that Mahomes was taken at 10. Lance will be there. Maybe Fields also unless someone falls in love

rinse, repeat

Well, just not sure. The big news, not big news thread was about physical limitations. So I guess we are left to wonder. Teddy much quicker on his feet than Stafford, so maybe the talking head should have said the Panthers were looking for a big arm.

This place is getting so Pizzy now. Even thread titles are darts at others. "my thread is better than your thread" It's like Jr High in here

Thus the question about a highly athletic QB. Not sure anyone in the NFL would have Stafford in their top 5 when speaking about someone athletic.

So how did the Panthers view Stafford?

Unfortunately, gaining respect through disrespect is a thing Glad he apologized.

Peter King on the Texans payroll with that absurd column

"I'd be surprised....." equals BIG NEWS? How about..."thread number 427 in 30 days on D Watson" This would be more appropriate At this rate, and it being a Monday, much more BIG NEWS is probably to follow as all the talking heads have to get their columns in.

2 - 1sts, CMC and Jackson seem a fair price

And a lot of from well known Huddlers who just want another way of talking about Watson. Why, who knows. Somebody new comes along and what do you expect?

Again, if the cap drops, there will be many many guys available if you have the cash. Shaq, KK, too. They might end up back here on smaller contracts. I expect a ton of 1 and 2 years deals this offseason.

Houston needs a CB pretty bad If they draft Lance, they would need a tutor of sorts with Teddy. Not sure how Shaq or SF works into the equation

Like every other NFL reporter?

Shaq more likely to get the KK and Tre treatment. Guys making way more than their skill level would dictate.
