Please tell me you’re joking 

About which part of the post?

Blazing Saddles would get made today and be a vastly different movie if the studios thought it would make money. And considering Brooks' age, he wouldn't be the writer, so not as funny.

As for the Space Balls sequel, Brooks isn't writing it. He's getting paid for his name and a producer credit. Josh Gad and two-three others are writing it, so yeah, it's not going to be that funny.

The space balls part. It sounds not funny.

Even though a ravens 5th and a panthers 6th is like 3-7 picks apart?

Even if they win it all and we have the #1 pick, it would still be about 10 picks because of the compensatory picks

But it still was a terrible trade, just sayin, it’s probably going to end up about a dozen or so picks better, not that it means anything at that point in the draft anyways.

Addition by subtraction. He did not want to be here and we were not resigning him. The unbelievable part is we got a 4th for Mingo.

A rare win for the Panthers in a trade, though I will stand by what I've always felt about Mingo.  He's got potential that this team simply could not harness.

Dallas sure as hell won’t

I hope his career works out for him. I personally don't feel he is a very good NFL caliber WR at all and a complete wasted draft pick but no reason to hate on him. I don't know what kept Mingo from putting it together and becoming something here but I definitely think it was time for him to move on away from here especially with Coker's potential coming to light. I sure hope that 4th rounder we got for him is used on a pick that will make a difference with the team to somehow feel better about drafting yet another WR that just didn't work out here.

Yeah. Great athlete. Not an NFL wide receiver. Honestly think he'd be better on defense. In the future, carolina needs to make sure receiver prospects actually have ball skills. How does he track the ball, does he catch with his hands, does he highpoint balls, does he catch low passes, does he catch in traffic? Maybe start there. Then field awareness and route running. All of that is infinitely more important than size and 40 time.

Been saying this, it fits here: the guys running the offense have their roots in WRs. We should get different evaluation moving forward.

I think the XL pick had helping Bryce as the top priority, but it is looking okay. The Coker acquisition shows they are competent at least. I am more a cynic than an optimist but think some optimism is in order at least on that count.

      I don't see the Wallace speed ratings on the field. Not once have my eyes been drawn to him from any suddenness or explosiveness. Kind of like looking for a flash out of Bryce Young last year. I am aware that he is a rookie and his recognition and processing will be slower but if you don't close ground once you have finished recognizing and processing I worry about it. Now this, I think, disregards the new offensive staff's experience with WRs and their influence on who gets added. It isn't the old staff people and they are the offensive deciders, Morgan shouldn't be exerting his will over people whose focus has always been offensive football, and I don't think he will try to do that.  We'll see, but the two we added this year don't look like busts.

      Not comparing the players just the use of analytics which has been and remains a key part of the structure of our approach in the draft since David Tepper became owner. All I'm saying is going forward we just don't know if this team will stop drafting Jonathan Mingo type prospects because the scouts are largely the same and the approach largely remains the same. Morgan has said he seeks players with a certain mentality (I refuse to type the phrase because this team has gotten taken to the woodshed too many times this season so it falls on deaf ears now) that's really the only key difference I can see as of right now. Next years draft will tell us what we need to know.
