Bucs have been smarter about free agency lately, they won big on the Brady bet. Aranus learned a lot in the league from past mistakes over the years I guess. Hell I didn't think Brady had enough to make it through the year. 

The Jags spend tons and piss it all away while picking top 5 every year. It's been incredible. Jets up their too. Miami gets a nod. 

It may or may not work either way we wont be worse than we have been for the past half decade.

No worries QB is the only reason teams win, look at Watsons career year this past season.....

Wait.... Im being handed a card{puts on reading glasses....doesnt have reading glasses..} Hmm it says here the Texans were 4-12 last year.....Hold on being handed another card..... They already traded the 3rd overall pick the year before.....well poo.

Literally no one has said this, you're trying to talk us out of the idea of trading for an elite young QB, you are not the rational one in this equation lol

It has 99% of the attempts.  The only time it has worked was with GOAT coming in, without giving up ANY capital, to a team that was ready for the GOAT.  I'm struggling to see that scenario here in Panther land.  Not even the GOAT himself could get THIS team to a trophy with the assets you are suggesting they give up to get him much less Watson.

It should also be mentioned that starting in 2022 Watsons cap hits will be 21% of the projected salary cap.... no draft picks and certainly no FA spending sprees.

1% chance for us then? I think that increased our odds!

Which team that made a run in the playoffs was doing it with a subpar QB? Packers, Bucs, Chiefs, Bills were the final 4. Saints and Ravens are usually in the mix. It’s not coincidence that the teams who are constantly in the playoffs making runs have franchise QBs. Seahawks usually are and the Steelers. So yeah he was 4-12 last year one year away from a 10-6 season, beating the Bills in the Wild Card round and losing the Mahome led Chiefs.

Not talking anyone out trading, just think trading Burns, Brown, three 1sts, three 2nds, two 5th for a elite 4-12 QB with 2 ACLs tears seems a tab much..

There is a chance we could be tho. The range of possibilities actually has a chunk which consists of worse than the last 5 years. Again look at the Jags and Jets. If we fug up we could end up in a couple of years of cleanup before we talk turnaround. I would use the Texans as an example of how bad it can get but they are special bad right now.

When 8 of your 11 losses were directly a result of your failures at QB, then yes, you are one player away.

There's no real comparable situation to this, honestly.  Hard to know the outcome. 

This is definitely a gamble. But I'm happy to have an owner and GM willing to gamble to win. Playing conservative hasn't gotten us a superbowl yet.

      OFFICIAL Undrafted Free Agent thread

      I think we’ve learned that if we’re relying on David Moore, we’ve got a problem. Youth can be a problem, too, but at least it promises to fix itself with time.

      Should I buy the huddle?!?

      By TD alt · Posted

      Do you remember the asking price by chance?  I would assume Igo has to be making some money, or the site wouldn't be worth buying. The site must be at least have to be self-sustaining. I wouldn't even want it if it wasn't at least that.  The only way I would figure that Igo would neglect the site as he has is that he has lost interest, but the site is still making money on a small margin, enough to pay for itself under current conditions, and/or he needs the money--- or is simply using the money for other things and bleeding it dry. It may be to the point that he doesn't want to put any more resources into it because it would actually cost him money. I don't know, all I can do is speculate. I do know that the site needs to be fixed. I just got my year's badge under an alt. That's crazy. It's been a year since I lost access to my regular account, and nothing has been done. Well, I guess "Top Dawg" is no more. LOL  Igo probably just has a lot going on. At least he says he's going to right the ship. We'll see.
