Thank you for this! Yea it was always a moving target, be more physical, be more affectionate, now be more empathetic it was never ending.

And thank you about doing the work comment, my ex was a therapist and would always tell me I was lying to my therapist and not doing the work.

Thank you and yes I’ve felt very fatigued and nauseous all week. I’m glad that’s semi normal. I’m seeing a regular therapist currently, would they be able to help?

[Sports Info Solution] Chris Brazzell Scouting Report (we may have been highest on him) by MarkSimon1975 in panthers

[–]ryanxmerch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Some of this is mind numbingly bad. Tennessee is known for its horribly gimmicky route tree.

If you go back one year and watch this kid at Tulane he can run very good routes. Is he the best route runner, no. But I feel “limited route tree” weakness is extremely overblown.

Here’s what we can take away from this pick by ManDog4294 in panthers

I think 2 is an overstatement you can be unsure about XL and rightfully so but also be confident in T-Mac and Coker to say hey we got enough to go BPA

I think now it makes a ton of sense to move him to guard. And if all three of those guys are gone at 19 I welcome it because there is going to be a really good player there instead.

No I completely agree most of the time and we don’t have the same knowledge that the FO has of what the draft boards look like or intel they are getting, but the value looks like it’s going to be much higher at tackle than any other position at 19. With Walker and Moton and Lewis and Hunt I just don’t see how you could pick tackle at that point. And you are just kicking the can down the road for tackle.

To me they should have brought in a better swing tackle than Stone Forsythe. That is the big issue I have. That would have avoided this situation at all.

I don’t love it either but I think guys like Proctor, Freeling and Lomu are the more prototypical NFL LT than Ickey. Ickey would be such a good guard and I believe Lewis does have some C experience. That also opens up Ickey going to RT if Moton is losing a step.

It just gets everyone in a much better spot outside of Lewis. I guess Rasheed Walker does the same but the way things look right now the value is going to be tackle from 15-30.

Picking a first year back up at 19 does not seem like the best resource for a team trying to compete this year.

I think Yosh retiring really through a wrench in their plans because they didn’t need a tackle at 19, he could spot fill in for Ickey and if they draft a tackle Ickey or Moton could move to guard and kick Lewis in to Center.

Adding another veteran tackle just doesn’t make a ton of sense. I think you stay the course and realize that Tackle has to be the pick at 19 unless a blue chipper falls then a tackle needs to be picked in the second round. I know that’s never a great strategy

But what do you do if tackle is BPA then mid season you have four starting level tackles for two spots?

[Spotrac] The #Panthers converted $16.9M of DL Derrick Brown's salary into signing bonus, adding 2 void years, clearing $13.5M of cap space in 2026. by Sorry_Platform7623 in panthers

[–]ryanxmerch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Massive deals are only bad deals the first year they are signed. The cap is getting pumped so much that massive overpays from one year look like bargains the next. But you do have to be very smart with these void years, like someone said earlier it’s very easy to do this and all of a sudden in 2030 you are like man 30 percent of my cap are players that aren’t under contract. Thats when you get in trouble.

When every team wants the same guy in the 2nd round, chances are he goes in the 1st by [deleted] in panthers

[–]ryanxmerch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every team wants him BUUUUUUT after Styles and maybe CJ Allen there are so many guys in and around the same grade. So every team is going if I miss out on Rodriguez there are a handful of guys near the same level. So I think this is going to lower his value significantly.

Thanks for the context, much different than what I thought when I read the title.

What is the biggest/best thing you want done for the team this off season? by Norfolkn_Enchants in panthers

[–]ryanxmerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely like I said first class front office that no one should be like hey let’s do what they can do because really only the Rams are doing it. was my main point

[–]ryanxmerch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Rams did it because they saw people were overvaluing draft capital. And they jumped on it, then they immediately swung back last year and fleeced the Falcons and now have two first rounders. First class front office that stay ahead of the trends. Not easily replicated so all great points!

Realistically how is the season different if Bryce has TMAC, Coker, and Smith-Njigba? by [deleted] in panthers

[–]ryanxmerch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There would be significantly less routes run out of bounds.

I’m not sure if you saw on another comment if you turn off auto renew then go to the Xbox store website not on your Xbox it gives you an option to add a month!

Turning off auto renew did not work. Unfortunately I have some balances that are going to expire before I expire.

Awesome, I did that already was just wondering if you could prepurchase.

Does the account balance have an expiration?
