Heeeeere's Danny:

My spin:

Expectations don't sound too high. Just thinking about taking things day by day, working the plan. 

Believes in Bryce (sounds real, but still coach-speak). Thinks he has all the tools to succeed in the league. Morgan did have a "we'll see" pertaining to Bryce.

His philosophy is to churn the bottom of the roster. 

The best teams are player-driven, including the team culture. They've drafted high character guys.

Hard Knocks do what it do. There were more phone calls on the Burns trade than they showed. It's good for fans.

Media/fans may be sleeping on D.J. Johnson.

 

Like I said...lots of believable coach-speak, but I have a gut feeling that there will be real competition for spots. I get the sense that Morgan is keen on adding upgrades from the waiver wire. I'd look for us to upgrade at least the CB position if not the EDGE.

I mean, that's a no.  And yeah, the Panthers knows exactly what he weighs.  As does Bryce.  If he bulked up, he would be tooting that horn.  

"yeah, you know, its like, you know, and uhhh, its uhhhh........"

 

I see Panther PR just said fug it in regards to his pressers and public speaking

The "bottom of the roster churn" comment was what Fitterer used to say.

Sorry, guys, CRA posted while I was posting (I began with trying to post the X link live broadcast, then a regular link, then checked YT which was about 10 minutes later. Anyway...

I merged them.  I meant to have yours at the top but accidently did it backwards.

You're talking about Bryce, I presume. 

Morgan's eyes are mesmerizing, but kind of discomforting at the same time.

Why would expectations be high? We've been the worst team in all of sports the past 5 years lol

I mean, I think it's relative. I mean, personally, I'd say that .500 (8-8-1, LOL) is a high bar. Hell, five games might be a stretch. My mouth about fell open when Joe mentioned "playoffs," and yes I immediately (like CRA) thought of Jim Mora. 

So, in that spirit...".500? .500? You talkin' about .500?"

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
