Dave Gettleman's Shorts

so no more "kill Kill" WR check down to TMJ for 2 yards from 4th and 15 with game on the line?

typical panthers

but even if Brooks was 100% going into the season, don't think he would even receive much snaps to begin with. still has to improve as a pass protector and route runner

at least we have a 2025 1st round pick heading into this season

When it boils down to it none of us really know how highly the Texans valued Stroud. I understand why you think this was how it went down because it's what was leaked through the media but I would caution making assumptions about the Texans intentions and assuming they operate similarly to the Panthers ie absolutely zero gamesmanship and tunnel vision for certain prospects over others. There's a reason the Texans have been drafting fairly well as of recently and the Panthers have been..well.. the exact opposite. Whether it was all Fitterer or Tepper was meddling it doesn't matter we were painfully easy to read.

believed it was Tepper who spilled everything in a press conference regarding the potential 3 way trade with Houston and Chicago. IF Houston stayed or traded up to One, the Panthers were going to take whoever was available between the two. This scenario would have been better since trading up to Two wouldn't have required selling the entire farm and DJ Moore even if we still ended up with Bryce at Two.

But anyways, "hindsight is 50/50" - Cam Newton

if lovie smith doesn't have that Hail Mary, CJ would be a panther.

Houston wanted Bryce over CJ. The plan was for Houston to trade to number 1 overall and take Bryce while the Panthers trade up to number 2 and take CJ. That went out the window when Houston backed out at the last second.

zane Gonzalez is available. he was pretty solid during his time here. just don't let him go out during pregame warmups

Summary: Bryce is relearning the basics of the QB position.

 

 

 

you would think since he is only 5'10 and physically limited in all regards not only as quarterback but an NFL player, he would at least have solid basic fundementals needed to overcome his limitations.

the same Chris Simms that said Matt Corral would be a future hall of famer?

Luvu was a solid starter and brought a lot of needed energy on the defense side of the ball and I wish he still could have stayed, but Luvu was out of position a lot in the run game and was a below average coverage linebacker

Burns only cared about getting paid and was constantly taken out by a single TE during games. For the amount of money he eventually got paid, there hasn't been a single instance in his career were he fully took over a game besides the first half of the Falcon game last season. How many game winning drives by the opponent has there been that Burns misses a tackle/sack and/or doesn't make a game saving play?

these past few regimes would have passed on Ryan kalil

Note: I'm willing to concede NT probably is a bigger depth need than starter need, but I just never felt like Shy was a natural fit for NT and he is currently the closest thing we have still. I was hoping we brought in Robinson for that role but he repeatedly stated in his press conference that he has never been an NT and doesnt plan to ever be an NT.

shy did not look good at NT last season. I noticed the back up players (labryan ray and nick Thurman) playing more snaps at NT than Shy during games

$225k is a lower income?

lol most physicians don't even make that much

whether Corbert plays at an elite level or a failure at center, the guy is coming back from back to back knee injuries/surgery and is the final year of contract.

the backup plan as of now at center is Cade mays and Brady Christensen 

this is prob the best pick in our class both value and potential wise

Sander could have easily gone in the 2nd round but we were able to pick him up with a 4th.

Great size, good hands, and is only 21 year old

Okay.

Jon Snow's Ass - Tight End - Butte College

6th Round

 

Pros: 

Great size. Excellent Receiver. Always near the balls. Hungry. 

 

Cons:

Needs more time in the gym. Prone to spew poo on the field.  

 

Consensus:

Good late round prospect, but cracks and holes in his game taint his possibility of going any earlier. 

 

is this Ian Thomas scouting report?

they could have stayed at 65 and picked Colson if they wanted a LB but instead gambled for an extra 5th

dan Morgan about to use that 5th round pick from the jets to trade back up in the 3rd

dan Morgan must really love and hate his 5th round picks

every pick so far in the 2nd has been WRs and DTs

I wouldnt mind a running back in the 3rd round. Lots of talent available while picking BPA with DB's, center, Wr, TE at the top of the 2nd round

not how I imagined it with the panthers selecting with the 32nd overall pick

we really don't need Theilen living in the slot so heavily.  He lowers the ceiling and threat of the offense given how much Bryce likes those throws.  We need youth and speed in the slot that can actually do something with the ball. 

I'd like to see Thielen reduced in the slot.  

idk I don't see Thielen having the speed to work on the outside at this stage of career. he was deadly in the first half of season when he was going against linebackers and nickel corners. but once defenses noticed that and schemed against thielen, he was taken out of the offense. however, thielen is still a reliable receiver and hopefully with the addition of diontae and possible draft picks, we can spread the defense out more

Dionte at X and Theilen at Slot

Just need to find a Z and TE to step up
