Mr. Scot

Honestly, I think a lot of it is just that you overestimate how good Hakeem Nicks is now. And I'd say you're severely underestimating Kelvin Benjamin.

Checked. Harry Douglas actually had better stats last year.

Could be. Only other reason I could think of is the league takes a dim view of racial slurs. Still, that's a reach.

Actually just took a quick look at the Titans depth chart... It's highly unlikely he starts. Kendall Wright is established as one starter and they want Justin Hunter to be the other, though there is some sense that he's underachieved for where he was drafted. Number three? Not necessarily. The Titans signed former Falcon Harry Douglas to a three year contract. Douglas could be expected to push Hunter for the other starting spot, meaning the loser would likely be the number three. So barring a surprise, Nicks may well be looking at another year as the fourth receiver (and technically fifth receiving option behind TE Delanie Walker). How the mighty have fallen...

So now apparently someone asked Roger Goodell about it Ian Rapoport retweeted Bob Glauber @BobGlauber · 3m 3 minutes ago Goodell said he wanted to know more about reported verbal altercation involving Greg Hardy and Cowboys teammate before commenting further. I'm not a Hardy defender, but this strikes me as overdoing it a bit.

Not calling you that, but I do think you're overreacting in this thread.

Benjamin was one of the guys I had most in mind when I posted this a while back...

To be clear, I was speaking of general reaction. Not what I thought you specifically would say.

Very possible.

I'm not used to a practice scuffle meriting a 'full story'. Wonder what that's about.

Remember when the Dolphons shook up the first round of the draft a few years back by taking Dion Jordan at pick #3? Well... Alex Marvez retweeted Luis Zabala @thewiwitos · 9m 9 minutes ago Dolphins Brass tounguetied when asked about Dion Jordan... My Opinion... He doesn't come out of the Draft a Dolphin

In other random news... Joe PersonVerified account ‏@josephperson RT @MikeGarafolo From me and @alexmarvez: Greg Hardy involved in verbal altercation with Cowboys teammate Davon Coleman today, per sources. Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo · 16m 16 minutes ago Sources say the argument between Hardy and Coleman began during conditioning drills. Teammates separated them. Full story coming.

Seeing how well he did his rookie season, knowing that per his own admission he hit the rookie wall late last year, and knowing how guys tend to improve quite a bit from year one to year two, yes. I have no problem going into this season with him as our number one guy.

I wondered if he was any relation to Sherdrick Bonner (Arena League guy that spent a little time on a couple NFL rosters) but apparently he isn't.

Please tell me you don't seriously think that analysis you gave of Benjamin was an example of reasonable discussion about team building philosophy.

I can already see how Draft Day is gonna go. We take a tackle..."WTF?! WE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A RECEIVER! GETTLEMAN DOESN'T CARE ABOUT GETTING WEAPONS FOR CAM!" We take a receiver..."WTF?! WE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A TACKLE! GETTLEMAN DOESN'T CARE ABOUT GETTING PROTECTION FOR CAM!" We take defense...Aaaahhh, screw it

Panthers GM likes depth of receiving talent in draft And come on, you can't be serious with that analysis of Kelvin Benjamin.

And again I ask, did I miss the draft? Why pay vet minimum for average guys like Nicks and Jennings when you can probably get better on a rookie contract in a week?

Sad thing is that's the name I was actually going to mention

The draft is already over? You might recall commentary from analysts a while back stating that many teams were bypassing free agent receivers because they saw how successful last year's draft class was, and how good this year's class looks to be.

We drafted a guy named Kelvin and signed a guy named Philly who've looked pretty good so far.

Ficksed.

If the Panthers do as Zod suggested and look at another QB as a number three / project guy, here's one that impressed Daniel Jeremiah Chris Bonner Daniel JeremiahVerified account ‏@MoveTheSticks Watching a really interesting QB right now. Colorado St. Pueblo QB Chris Bonner has great size and throws an accurate ball. Zierlein lists him as a priority free agent. Sean Mannion is better, but from what I'm reading Mannion might go higher than I'd want us to take him.

Jags reporter Ryan O'Halloran says that if the Jags draft a receiver high, they'll likely cut ties with Justin Blackmon. (ironic wording there, I know)
