LOL second round rb pick to miss first two years. This team is just so bad at drafting. They should farm out the process to a private firm or let a draft simulator do it.  AI can't be worse than this bunch.

TBH, Huddle consensus has been far better than the Tepper Panthers.

Huddle poll option for each pick and we would have a better team right now than what we have with Fitt/Morgan/Tepper doing the picks.

I feel bad for this kid...but I feel even worse for Morgan.

We'll, looks like we're keeping Sanders another year. If he can play like he did against Atlanta, I don't have a problem with it.

Or draft another guy. I don't care.

I think we are all disappointed that he will miss maybe two years but truth of the matter is matter is if he comes out balling then we will forget that fact. In limited reps he looked pretty impressive (that one screen where he stopped on a dime and picked up 10 yards was faulk-esque).

 

hope he gets healthy and doesn’t miss another game in his career.

We could get a guy in the 5th to replace him, TBH.

From the team perspective, you move on. If he ever does recover he can have a role as a 3rd string RB until he gets back into gear. If it never happens, you can cut bait.

It sucks for the kid but we can't put too any eggs in the basket of another player that may never play a meaningful down again.

Probably.

We just need to have a double threat at RB. Or a triple threat. Just beat defenses to death. And have super squirrel Bryce squirt and squirm randomly through holes just to piss them off more.

I don't think we have a coaching staff that is remotely interested in a dominant rushing attack, so we really need to get a #1 WR.

We certainly botched the handling of Brooks’s rehab and/or his return to play decision.

I’m still not giving up on Brooks becoming an important contributor to our team. Unfortunately, I don’t think that happens until 2026. 

Likely a botched surgery or rehab issue before he got here. It shouldn’t have taken 12 months to be on the field. Something went wrong and likely early on

Watching these highlights really hope the panthers get him.  His balance and power look legit, most draft analysis I see actually compare him to Hubbard with better hands.
