Panthers trading back for the THIRD TIME
SmokinwithWilly replied to Zod's topic in Carolina Panthers
I was really hoping for Meinerz. Now I feel a little disappointed -
General Friday Draft Discussion - Rounds 2-3
SmokinwithWilly replied to Zod's topic in Carolina Panthers
Meinerz is who I want next -
This feels like a really bad mock draft from first pick with these trades. Except first pick gives better trades
-
I like our options for round 2. I was hoping we could have moved down and picked up an extra second but oh well. Koramoah, Jenkins, Moore, and Radunz are my choices.

"Verge's Draft Day Thread" or some such.
SmokinwithWilly replied to Verge's topic in Carolina Panthers
Don’t take criticism from those that won’t put their own neck out there. Predicting the draft is hard to do especially when you aren’t in all those draft rooms. You’re still better at this than Mel kiper and don’t need 50 cans of Aqua Net every morning. -
General 1st Round Draft Discussion

No he won't. Most of these guys will be on IR before the season starts. -
BREAKING: A.Rodgers wants out of Green Bay
SmokinwithWilly replied to firefox1234's topic in Carolina Panthers
Big difference between FA and a trade but I'd give away 4 1sts for a Lombardi. Nobody cares how you won, only that you won. -
BREAKING: A.Rodgers wants out of Green Bay
SmokinwithWilly replied to firefox1234's topic in Carolina Panthers
If you think it gets you a SB you can. TB did it and it worked out ok. Things shift so fast in the nfl winning now when you're close is sometimes the best option. -
Where a player lands contributes so much to his success or failure. David Carr is a perfect example. He got sacked so many times he saw ghosts everywhere because he landed behind such a horrible offensive line. I'm optimistic about Darnold because I don't think he's had a real chance to develop bad habits. He's spent the majority of his time trying to fit into Gase's system which was throw it at the wall and see what sticks.

I bet Ron chews the same piece of gum all the days of the draft, without it ever losing flavor.

The value of rock / paper / scissors
SmokinwithWilly replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
I guess maybe there is some psychological stuff to a simple game like that. Me, I'm only playing after a dozen shots of Jaeger and it's rock/paper/scissors/shot. -
If he is there in the 3rd I would be happy to watch them call his name as our pick. I don't think he makes it to the 4th. He needs to be developed and 2 years behind Darnold would give time for that to happen. A promising young QB in the stables would be nice to have.

And for Snyder forcing the Haskins pick. They took Sweat a few picks later.
-
If we go Sewell/Slater in the first, I would like to see Humphrey or Meinerz in the second. I do expect the pick to be Grjant though. I would be content with Jamin Davis too.

Teams ranked by the last 5 drafts
SmokinwithWilly replied to ladypanther's topic in Carolina Panthers
A single pick comparison doesn't really establish much as far as drafting talent. Hurney whiffed far more in the 2nd and 3rd where it really matters than Gettleman. It will be interesting now to see how not having JR influence will affect our new GM. -
Grief affects people in a lot of different ways. He was never the same after that loss.

Teams ranked by the last 5 drafts
SmokinwithWilly replied to ladypanther's topic in Carolina Panthers
Time will tell if Butler was a bad pick or Rivera wasn’t able to use him right. He played well in Buffalo this year, which makes me wonder if it was Ron trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole. Rivera was anything but adaptable and constantly forced players into his system instead of adapting his system to the players. Gaulden was a failure from the start and Little, that was just Hurney being a dumb ass trusting his gut over what anyone with a set of eyes clearly saw. -
What 1st round position do you NOT want to see drafted
SmokinwithWilly replied to CanadianCat's topic in Carolina Panthers
I don't want a LB at 8 because the positional value is not there. Parsons may be legit, but we could probably move back to 15 and still possibly get him. There's far more chance of him being available than Sewell, Slater, Chase, Waddle, or Pitts -
Your Carolina Panther 8 player Big Board
SmokinwithWilly replied to MHS831's topic in Carolina Panthers
1. TL 2. Sewell 3. Slater 4. Wilson 5. Chase 6. Pitts 7. Fields 8. Trade back - since we're talking big board, I'm adding trade back as my option at 8 if these players are gone. Wouldn't want to move further back than 15 at most. 9. Waddle 10. Lance - merely based on positional value 11. Surtain/Horn - these 2 are neck and neck IMO 12 Parsons - based on talent alone. I dont see LB holding the value in this years draft -
Also the sound of his gut feeling kicking in

Teddy only had 2 2nd-half TD passes in 2020, none after Wk 4
SmokinwithWilly replied to KSpan's topic in Carolina Panthers
You can't mold around a QB that won't/can't take the necessary risks. 4th and 8 passing for 2 yards isn't going to cut it. Saying that he wanted to check out of a play where he missed a wide open receiver for a touchdown because he didn't like it is a problem. Teddy likes to play it safe and in this game you have to be willing to take risks to win. Teddy has shown he isn't that guy. -

SmokinwithWilly replied to KSpan's topic in Carolina Panthers
It brings up a more important question though, rather than just does Teddy suck. Should we cosider keeping T2G for a backup. The hope with any backup is that they have the ability to win a game if your starter gets hurt. These stats show that he likely isnt going to be able to come in in the 2nd half and lead the team to a win. Granted most everyone already knows this, but when considering the backup role, how much value does he even have there? -
You know what this reminds me of?
