I hate JR so much now. The man was clearly not like this before his heart transplant. I don't know what happened to him.

 

I would say that every major life event impacts us in one way or the other. It changes our priorities, attitudes, personality, and philosophy....I wouldn't rule it out having some sort of impact.

I was going to make a thread saying basically the same thing.

 

JR had the choice to get a quality coach and put us in a position to win.... or keep Rivera and save money. He chose to save money. Same thing he did in 2010, cut all the vets and keep a coach that doesn't want to be here. An entire year goes out the window with absolutely no chance of a championship. But he doesn't care, he's making more money this way. That's what he cares about more than anything. And we as fans just have to suck it up and deal with an inferior product for another year.

      Draft Grades

      First on T-Mac, I 100% expect him to be the top WR from this class, however I think expecting him to put up 1k+ as a rookie isn't necessarily fair, especially since you're putting it in perspective of how many other rookie WRs have done that in recent years. And Thielen is the reason for that. Not many (if any) of those 1k+ rookies had someone like Thielen there when they were drafted, and no matter how good T-Mac is this year, Bryce is still going to lean on his existing chemistry with Thielen unless he's drastically lost a step this offseason and just can't get open like he's been able to in his career. As I pointed out in another thread the other day, looking at MHJ last year is the way to look at T-Mac's season if Thielen plays a full and healthy season.  MHJ had McBride "steal" 110+ catches and 1,100+ yards in what was a pass happy offense (Kyler was 9th in the league in attempts), it's going to be hard for any rookie to put up more than the 800ish yards he had last year in that scenario.  Especially if we follow a similar game plan to last year and be a run heavy team. In terms of XL, you're completely right, jumping up to get a project 2/3 isn't smart, and if we knew we needed a future slot from that pick, yes, Ladd would have been a much better pick. But at this point, those are all sunk costs, even taking T-Mac at 8 is now considered a sunk cost. Forgetting the past or who we maybe should have taken last year now knowing future roles, I still think T-Mac, XL, Coker can be one of the Top 1-3 WR rooms in the NFL in a few years, I honestly think they really do have that potential in them.

      BREAKING: Panthers claim CB M.J. Devonshire off Waiver Wire

      Maybe we should have just drafted a corner?  Crazy, I know.  One of the few positions we knew had to be addressed in the draft and nadda.
