How many freaking TEs are on our active roster??? Having 4 of them, you would think that at least one of them would be average...

We play musical chairs with them it's hard t'say if they're building any consistency. Both Steph and Tommy have flashed the last two weeks though so here's hoping. They're both in their 3rd and 2nd years respectively.

We need a TE

Yeah. We should've made that trade for Hock, could've probably given up a little bit less than the Vikes did so they could move him out of division. A legit TE is a great safety blanket and weapon for a young QB. Everything we do this offseason needs to be setting up for a rookie QB (Young or Stroud ideally) to have success. Coaching, FA, rest of the draft, etc.

 

OL is pretty well set but I'd like to add some more legitimate depth there. DJ is a good start at WR, we'll see how TMJ does the rest of the year but ideally we upgrade on him at WR2 and TE significantly this offseason. Also, I'd like to see us take a shot on a mid round RB to pair with Foreman, especially one who can catch the ball. Chuba was fine a few weeks ago but he's really not that explosive and very mistake prone. Foreman has been great since we traded CMC but I'm not sold on him as our mid/long term starter at HB.

Chuba had a higher average than Foreman in that same game, and that's with Foreman even breaking one. He's certainly more explosive, and has the speed to boot.

I'm trying to find that graphic they displayed on the screen during the game. 

I just remember seeing Derrick Henry as #1, Cmc as #2, Donte and Chubba also listed among the qualifying college running backs. I just cant recall the title they were talking about. 

As for Chubba... he is the more explosive option. Foreman is who you bring in after the defense is gassed. He's a bruiser that's sneaky fast. Chubba is the speedy - can run one in if he hits the hole type. If he has an initial hole to run through, he's actually pretty dangerous. He hasn't had that enough here to show that ability since we drafted him. The last TD he scored comes to mind.

Chubba behind this line is a different player. Or at the least "should" be. Foreman is who he was last year, Rhule just didn't have the smarts to use him. I thought at the very least he'd b used near the goal line and in short yardage situations... nope.

I don't even know where to begin...this is the NFL and average means sucks.  You would be correct, our TEs suck.

      Panthers sign a... basketball player

      Just admit that you don’t follow all the draft discussions on here. If draft results were so random, how come some teams tend to be perennial losers like us and some teams are perennial winners and it all starts with the draft? It’s almost comical these type of stupid responses. Oh, why aren’t you the GM? Gee I wonder since I work in a completely different field. How about you give us some examples of where the huddle consensus drafting was worse than our drafting from 2018 to 2025? I know I’ve given a ton of examples and you just shoot this generic poo of oh you couldn’t possibly done better as an armchair GM. Why don’t you dispute any of my examples? Let’s go to Brooks. I wanted Frazier at C because I still feel like that’s a hole. Other Huddlers mentioned DeJean at CB. Here’s why many of us didn’t want Brooks because 1) he might not play due to tearing his ACL late in the college season, 2) any scout/GM worth their salt would know that the 2025 RB draft class was loaded and 3) trading up multiple picks knowing 1 and 2 seems silly. Heck, after the draft, pretty clear that day 3 was where the RB value was. The huddle was right on Brooks and at most, we’ll get 2 years of Brooks while Hubbard is still under contract. If you know so much about the underlying machinations of the draft, you should be able to dispute the actual examples and how the huddle’s picks were just plain lucky and how Dan, Scott and Marty’s picks were just unlucky. Pulling the why aren’t you an NFL GM is a much repeated response when an actual reasoned response isn’t possible. Our drafting hasn’t been unlucky the past 7 drafts, it’s just been bad with lost of idiotic moves that were far worse than the huddle consensus.

      100%!! Last year we focused completely on offense, and it made leaps, especially when Bryce settled in for the 2nd half of the season. We kept all those players and improved our RB stable this free agency! This year we focused almost entirely on D, specifically our run D. I expect it to jump to at least average, which would be awesome considering they are starting at dead frikin last. Our draft class from last year, however, doesn't exactly make me tingle. I know, I know..."traded away our first round pick, give them time to develop", but still. The 1 gem was Coker, a UDFA who I really like, but he ain't exactly Randy Moss. We have to do better! We can't afford to only build via Free agency.
