Matt Rhule doesn’t look happy.  Maybe he is just tired but there does seem to be something.  Also, he said all the best QBs in the NFL are old.  Over the age of 35.  That it’s an older players position WTF? 

Rodgers and Brady were among the best before 35.  They just happen to still be playing lol. 

He also conveniently ignored guys like Mahomes, Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson.

As far as his disposition, he looked even worse yesterday.  I honestly think its because his role has been minimized and he's been relegated to being just a hood ornament at this point.  I figure its because its had to have been a pretty big shot to the old ego to have gone from complete control over everything to having minimal input in everything as your job hangs by a thread.  In both pressers, its clear Scott is in the driver seat and is commanding the room.  Rhule is just there and even the reporters seem to sense it because when they address them, it tends to be directed to Scott first.

It’s a future 3rd rounder for a young QB with potential. We come out if this draft addressing two of our biggest needs with really only our first and what might as well be a fifth round pick and all we did is lose next year’s 3rd over it. That’s minimal damage all things considered. At worse we have a backup with potential on a cheap 3rd round contract. At best we have our new QB. Very low risk high reward pick. Even if it’s a high 3rd next year, those picks are far from sure things. Who was ours last year? Marshall and BC? Marshall might have been a 2nd…

The Panthers are having a phenomenal draft so far. I'm still in shock.

Felt like Fitt even read the room and added a don’t forget about Rhule handout.  Everyone we had Matt call Bill with what we wanted and he didn’t fold.  Good job Matt.  Matt can do things!

Our third is likely to be a top 5-10 in the 2023 draft. Why trade that? Why? For Corral? Is he better than Howell? Is he better than Strong? Is he better enough to be a starting QB in the NFL? If the answer to a single one of those questions is no, then it is a dumb trade. 

Just fuging wait or trade a goddamn 4th for another 4th. Don't let go of 1st-3rd round draft picks. That is the meat of the draft.

They believe he is better than Howell and Strong and, TBF they aren't alone.  Howell and Strong were regularly listed 5th and 6th QB and Corral was often in the top 3 depending on what draft network you were looking at.

We used:
a 2023 pick 65 at 265 points (assuming we come in 32nd)
and a 2022 pic 137 at  37.5 points.

For a total of  402.5 draft points for Corral, equivalent to pick 49-50... mid-late second round.

The real question is, is Corral worth a mid second round pick?  We're going to find out.

Its like that moment when you are a kid and sit on your parents lap and they let you hold the steering wheel of a parked car in your driveway and you think you are driving.

Out of curiosity, what is the point total if we trade them next year’s 4th instead? Or if we’re a 8-win team with say, a mid-round 3rd?

Man, there sure are a lot of extra salty UNC fans in here

i think howell is the safer pick. has less risk of flaming out and will likely be solid for a long time. carroll has a very high ceiling, but could also be gone before we have a chance to take a 5th year option on him.

IMO, he isn't enough better than Howell or Strong to waste that pick on.

      No, but considering that over a third (~35%) of their schedule are the other three teams in the NFC South and all three have strong starting (and back-up) RBs that the offense leans heavily on to open up the pass game. ATL: Bijan has this season and next season before the Falcons have to make a decision on his fifth-year option, Tyler Allgeier is a proven back-up RB that could start for some teams, and 2024 sixth-round selection Jase McClellan returns from a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season starting in early September. Combine that with their QB situation, and that's a team that is going to lean heavily on the run just like they did last season when they were 8th in the league in rushing attempts, 10th in rushing yards, 8th in rushing TDs, 9th in rushing attempts on 1st down, . NO: Similar situation as ATL, but for different reasons. Derek Carr is in the second to last year of his deal and the QBs behind him are Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci. However, they also have Alvin Kamara. One thing that we know about Kellen Moore from his stints as an OC is that he likes to lean heavily on a versatile RB1 while bringing in an arguably equally versatile RB2 to keep their foot on opposing defenses. When Moore had Zeke in Dallas, Zeke was 4th in the league in touches during those four years but Pollard still averaged 10 touches and nearly 60yds a game. Look for the Saints to shore up their RB room in the draft with Kendre Miller, CEH, Jordan Mims, and Xazavian Valladay all competing for touches behind Kamara. TB: Bucky Irving exploded onto the scene last season, but we can't forget more than capable (now-)RB2 Rachaad White. White is on the last year of his rookie deal, but Irving is under contract until 2028. Last season, the Bucs were 10th in rushing attempts, 4th in rushing yards, 3rd in YPC, 7th in carries of 20+, 8th in carries of 40+, and 7th in first down rushing attempts and that helped Baker Mayfield be one of the most efficient passers in the league with a 71.4% completion percentage (good enough for 2nd in the league).
