Worst part about the pick is that the 2025 RB class is way the fug better. Only 3 RBs were rated as 2nd/3rd rounders including Brooks, and none had a first round grade. This year there looks to be 10 RBs with up to 2nd/3rd round grades and a couple with first round grades.

It’s very likely that some of the 2025 RBs in round 3 are as good as Brooks and they aren’t coming off ACLs so we’d have them at a rookie deal for 4 years instead of just the 3 years we’ll have Brooks due to the injury.

If we ever get a GM with brains, we would have had a future anchor at C with the 2nd round pick last draft and our Chuba helper with an early 3rd or 4th in 2025 and had better overall draft value.

Fitterer (and Hurney) were the same as Morgan and liked to pick positions that were weak in the draft. That's like thinking Pickett was a better QB option than Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson because he was the 1st QB taken in the 1st round. One day we’ll have a GM that realizes drafts are weak/strong at different positions and it can change every year.

the 2025 class is an embarrassment of riches.  Morgan was a fuging moron drafting this kid and most certainly the way the did it.  But hey he punked the cowboys.

Reminds me of when Fitt punked the Saints by taking Marshall one pick before them or when Hurney stole Grier from the Patriots when Maxx Crosby was on the board and was one of our private visits. We draft scared and worried about other teams instead of just drafting well with what your given.

      BREAKING:Panthers re-sign Chuba Hubbard

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      I love paying guys who prove themselves coming into their prime.  Also, it very easy to structure a 4 years deal with 15 guaranteed to be very team friendly and good for both sides.  It's pretty much 12-15th ranked RB money.  We also traded around in that round and got an extra 2nd rounder next year and still got Brooks, who I might add would have been an easy first round pick had it not been for the injury.  It's still all educated guesses but you've adding some cover you ass insurance with these moves in case of injury or just being wrong about a guys talent.  Longer seasons.  You had in all these factors together and this is exactly the kind of move very smart GM's make.  I forgot to add how much Canales uses RB's in his system in the run and pass games.    Chubba is currently tied with Legette for 2nd on the team in receptions.  He is one behind Sanders for 3rd in targets. Canales also loves efficiency and his 5 ypc are elite. And that isn't to say about the guy as a teammate and team leader.  That's worth money too. ESPECIALLY, when you are a bad team and you're a new coach trying to build a new culture. Hell, man could be the lynch pin to this team's chemistry.  Unless Dave and Dan make some extremely stupid move they deserve to build this team like they think is best.   Keep pounding.

      Rookie Tracking - Some Good Signs

      By strato · Posted

      I like the thinking but have to ask, you think he had those notarized in anticipation?  Okay kidding but if Tepper is as involved as people think he would know who Morgan liked.  Also, if Tepper would have been happy with everything Morgan had done in cahoots with Fitterer, well he already had it and fired it. So I think there has to be some divergence from Fitterer somewhere in the timeline, or he wouldn't be here.
