There's a chance that any QB we draft will stink.

I'm not going to sit here and worry about it, though. "OMG what if we pick the wrong  one !!!!!!!!" What a waste of energy.

I've said it before many times and I still mean it. I'll be happy with either one and Ive got confidence in this coaching staff and FO to make the right decision. 

If we draft a guy and he sucks, then I'll deal with it then. Until I see reason not to be excited, I'm going to be. 

I've been on this forum for a while and tend to side with just about everything you have input on, so I was just curious, being someone else close to stepping away from the Rhule show myself.... hopefully whoever we get balls out.

This may sound strange (on the Huddle, strange? HA) but considering that we will draft the right QB for us (I trust the FO, scouts, & staff), I'm most excited for training camp. So many questions! New head coach! New staff! So many new offensive skill players! A new promised defense! New QB!! How does Reich conduct TC? What are his priorities? How does the staff teach the playbooks? Do all the new players mesh well? How fast will our rookie QB get the timing and feel down for those skill players? Where will they line Chinn at in practices? Has CJ Henderson improved? This year we should be getting film and pics from camp (with mein Rhule gone). I can't wait! 

But, to answer the question, yeah I'm excited again. Haven't been this excited in years. Never liked Rule.

This team isn’t even being given the credit they deserve for this offseason from the media.  It has been absolutely masterful IMO.  Everything is definitely not going to go perfectly but this team is the most improved team in the league considering the coaching changes and moves

No disrespect to coach Wilks but Imagine that if Piniero made the field goal vs Atlanta and we made the playoff. Then now Wilks is our head coach .............

…and I still would have been excited as long as McAdoodoo wasn’t retained. Wilks was that transition manager who cracks skulls and hits the reset button after the last guy fuged everything up. 
 

 

That being said I love where we are at. But nothing but love for coach Wilks.

I was sinking into the pit of apathy and was pretty much done with the team until they fired Rhule. Then Wilks got me back to ground zero and made it ok to be a fan and I'm grateful for that 

With this coaching staff, I'm feeling good about the future for the first time in a long time. Being in this position to draft.... whoever it is they draft...I'm really excited and yeah, it feels good  

I survived fifteen years of Marty Hurney, but three years of Matt Rhule was arguably even tougher.

It's a wonder I'm still here.

This feels like 2011 all over again 

i'm not as excited as i was about the idea of drafting Cam back then, but i am still pretty giddy and a bit anxious. i know it's going to be a great pick that's going to have us set and competitive for years. and i feel good about most of the options that are available.

with the cam pick, i knew that there wasn't any real competition...because it was really just cam, yo gabba, and locker and those last two i knew were going to be bad. there really was only one name that had any real chance of being called. 

with this year...i just can't wait to hear whoever's name is called and have some clarity to my dreams.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.

      Self described anti-Bryce dude wants us to fail to take a major step forward     Yeah that lines up.
