You think Watson is wants to take the field behind this OL? Houston's failure for years to build an OL is a big part of why they arrived at this empasse to begin with.

Dolphins have a worse O-Line then us somehow lmao

If we land Watson we would also have Sam Darnold's 18 million dollar cap hit next season. Might as well trade away Brian Burns an/or Donte Jackson since we would not be able to re-sign them

Jackson and Burns can go. We need to build up the offense, and Burns is totally neutralized by chipping TEs and RBs. Jackson is not needed with what we already have at CB.

I was just thinking, Rhule said Darnold will indeed be the starting QB next week. He also swore up and down the offense would look different and we would run more...

He has given several players votess of confidence, a then proceeds to cut/trade them, Dan Arnold comes to mind. Says Gilmore might play, he doesn't. Says CMC is 50/50, he goes on IR.

Just sayin...

You guys do realize that Panthers were one of the places that has the OK from Watson right.

Also the Dolphins have a poo OL without the weapons or defense that we have.

Neither seem like a yippidy dood da spot but it's just a fact we are one of the places he'd go and the Dolphins have less talent than we do. They have more picks than we do though.

Reeks of desperation though and also would put the final bullet in this whole rebuild in 5 years thing that seemed to be a plan at some point. FFS like I said how bad did that 3-0 start fug this whole organization up lol.

Mans bout to give up an amount of picks that could make us look like Mike Dikta 
In other words it's a very Panthers thing to do.

I don't want Rhule telling our real plans to the media. Do you?

      Dan Morgan is an awful GM

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      1) Signed 2 high profile guards to big contracts. Did we need guards? Yes. But there's a reason you draft guards and pay tackles. It's easier to find solid guards in the draft. Now we have the most expensive line in the league and still can't get 100 yards passing before halftime.  2) Traded up to get a RB when we didn't really need one. Chuba is one of the better RBs in the league right now and while it is a contract year, we had a crap ton of holes all over. Brooks was a luxury pick we didn't have the luxury to make. 3)Spending a small fortune to build a supporting cast for BY. Bryce didn't even put the work in himself during the offseason by his own admission. We didn't need to build an offense specifically for BY. We brought in DJ and drafted XL. These guys need a QB with a live arm. That's not BY. Speed kills but not when your QB can't legitimately make an accurate, deep ball strike without putting a ton of air under it and floating it.  4. Not looking for a true center. There were several available and it's been a position of need for years. We could have had our choice but we rolled with Corbitt, who did look good at the spot, but had an injury bug that struck again this year.  5) He didn't bring in any serious competition for Bryce. Now you can say that BY needs time to develop and we needed to show we had faith in him, blah blah blah. But the simple matter of fact is Bryce looked like a PS QB last year, Andy has one foot in the QB grave, and there was never an attempt to actually compete for the job. If he genuinely believed that BY was going to magically make it all come together watching YT and chillin for 4 months to unplug, then there's nothing else that needs to be said.  The goal of every GM should be to build a winning team. Players are commodities and loyalty leads you to an early walk out the door. We've tried to build a system to work around the most limited QB in NFL history. 60 years of history should have told him it was never going to work. And benching BY after 2 games is the real truth, he never should have been starting anyway. And either Dan should have known that as the great MLB that he was after watching BY's game tape, or someone else is making the call and Dan is just rubberstamping that decision.  Either way, doesn't matter. We're screwed because we've devoted 2 years of resources to build around a player that didn't put in the work in the off season after one of the worst NFL QB seasons ever.

      Offensive Starters (Where are they found in the draft)

      By BrianS · Posted

      Something I find interesting is that you are more likely to find successful players as UDFA's than you are to find them with a single pick in any round past 3.  Those 3rd round compensatory choices?  Largely worthless.  Yes, I get it, there are a lot more UDFA's than there are drafted players in later rounds.  Basically, if you're fishing for starters you are simply not going to find anything in Rounds 4 - 7 with any regularity.

      the argument that Dan Morgan was assistant GM for years while running counter to everything both his bosses signed off on (who look down at him and his staff for info).....is a tough sell.  I feel we do a variant of this every year.  You aren't this bad...becuase of 1 person.  You are this bad because of LOTS of bad people.  It was never just Joe Brady.  Which is why firing him didn't lead to better offense.  It was never just Matt Rhule.  It was never just Fitterer.    As bad as we are, we need to scorch Earth this puppy and quit letting people who were part of making the mess be the designed folks to lead us out of the mess.  when David Tepper and Jim Caldwell found the answer on the roster......it was clear from the jump nothing had really changed.
