This thread is addressed to a certain portion of the huddle population. Specifically, those who would wish for 20 months without NFL football just so that they could choose first in the draft again and land Andrew Luck. If that is you....keep reading.

You are fuggin crazy. I'm not being funny. I believe you to be certifiably insane. Check yourself into a mental facility today. You are too far gone. You are a danger to yourself and those around you. You are one step away from writing Andrew Luck's name repeatedly on your wall with your own excriment.

There are two elite QB's in this league. That means 30 teams make do without one. The last 3 superbowls were won by those teams.

To wish for an entire season to be scrapped for one player who may or may not be an elite QB? How can you call yourself a football fan?

Here is your chance to come to your senses before the rest of us laugh at and mock you repeatedly.

:out:

I don't want there to be a lockout, but I can understand why some would. If you want what's best for the long-term success of the team then I suppose some would take it that far. I personally don't see the point if there's no football being played, but that's just me.

If they think drafting Luck guarantees long term success then they have very little understanding of the game. Just ask Dan Marino.

No, its not ok. I am taking a stand here. If you are hoping for a lockout you are not a football fan. Period.

Well, I suppose that depends on if you consider yourself a football fan first or a Panthers fan first. I personally could give a sh** less about the rest of the league. Now the lockout is a whole other issue as it could have a very negative effect on every team INCLUDING the Panthers.

No need to flame, but you should look at it from other points of view. They might think your the one who needs to be put into a mental institution.

They very well may. But the guy on the street corner with the bull horn proclaiming god resides in his own rectum probably thinks I am nuts for not believing it also.

No actual Panthers fan would be willing to go 20 months without a Panthers game for the chance to draft on rookie.

Yeah, a lockout would likely result in them shaking up the draft order somehow anyway. We've got a better shot at Luck playing out the season and going down fighting again. But then we start with the 'do you REALLY want them to win this week?' talk, which is a whole other can of worms.

      Trading #8

      some of my favorite mocks i do are trading back with Indy or Miami, but not Arizona, as that lets Hotlanta pick before us.

      Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Carter, Graham, and Hunter for me. Other than that I'm listening to offers. Hell, I'm listening to offers anyway. I'm not doing the Gettleman thing of submitting the pick immediately. If the phones are ringing there's no cost to listening. Maybe someone has an offer so good that I can't refuse.

      These numbers do not measure a player's prime. Do these numbers include OL pulled up from the practice squad for a game or two then cut?  Do they include players who might have been injured or cut for reasons other than they were past their primes?  The average career for an NFL lineman is 3.63 years, and that is because there is a lot of turnover--regardless of a player's prime. In fact, if only 55% of Offensive linemen drafted in the first round succeed, then the failure rates of most offensive linemen drafted and undrafted would be much lower, cause them to skew the average age of the OL.  This suggests that most players' retirement from the NFL is not based on their prime, but other factors.  They are cut, released, injured--and that is based on their level of play compared to others, not their levels of play within their personal skill range--something that peaks during your prime. In this case, I was talking about Moton, an elite offensive tackle, one that avoided the factors that shorten careers unrelated to their primes. I identify Moton as the team's best offensive lineman on an impressive OL--that distinguishes the type of player being referenced, so I did not provide a lot of qualifiers--as you didn't with your stats.   In this article below, one that evaluates established Offensive tackles, it states the following, which supports my comment:  "Most elite offensive tackles start to decline at roughly the age of 32 if they haven’t already."  So to say that Moton was at the end of his prime was not a reach or careless speculation.  If a player has the skill to be competitive and they can avoid injuries, their career expectancy is much higher than an average of all offensive lineman on a fluid roster. https://www.milehighreport.com/2017/2/27/14724674/age-wall-for-offensive-tackles-nfl
