Either his job is safe or he is a completely unselfish person who isn't trying to cover his ass so he can save his job.

The facts are there to support a few scenarios.

Either he is putting the franchise before himself, he really believes he will be here next year or someone else is calling the shots on draft day and completely ignoring him. You don't draft a QB with your first pick and move up to draft a project WR in the 3rd if you don't plan on sticking around. I tend to believe he knows he will be coaching in Carolina for the next few years.

Fox never calls the shots on draft day.

Fox and Hurney call the shots together. They reach a consensus with the director of scouting and the assistant coaches before making every pick

And neither Fox nor Hurney acted like they were going anywhere, given their actions in the draft.

Fox is a good coach, he needs an owner or GM who will ride his ass (in a gay way) and make him mix things up sometimes. if the organization is conservative from the top down, you're going to have things happen like keeping Jake 2 seasons passed his expiration date. a conservative coach is fine if you've got a progressive owner coaxing him along.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
