Yeah, sure he's going to walk away from millions in a hissy fit... LOL, c'mon man... nobody believes that poo.

Mel Kiper can't be wrong. He can only be failed by prospects he liked and prospects he didn't like can only be carried by great circumstances but either way, just know that Mel Kiper was not wrong.

That motherfuger said Jamarcus Russell had the same skill set as John Elway. LOLOLOLOL

Mel Kiper's long illustrious history would also indicate that neither does Mel Kiper. It's almost like this poo isn't an exact science or something and that there's a lot of different variables that go into whether or not a guy is successful. It's just that according to Mel Kiper, everyone else is an idiot and he's perfect. LOL

This. Both were dumb and disrespectful of the pre-draft process in different ways. You're going on job interviews for potentially massive multi-million dollar gigs. Don't go out and get hammered the night before and if they send you a sampling of the playbook put in some time to get to know it.

Anyone who thinks Hunter is going to be a full time two way player in the NFL is delusional.

Sounds like a potential 3-4 DE to me

And constantly posting about his MMA fights until he started losing them all. LOL

Why not just get rid of the 30 visit limit? Seems dumb and arbitrary and it seems like you'd want to give prospects the opportunity for as much exposure as possible. Borderline draftable guys probably aren't getting much attention at all on top 30 visits but that would likely change if you get rid of it.

Derek has always looked up to his big bro and I think that's really cool. Never had any issues with either. Sucks Derek went to the Saints but whatever.

Oh yeah, I distinctly remember the "Kracken out." sign offs with every post. LOL

Didn't our current GM make a brief appearance and dickheads dragged him for his pizza joint and history of head injuries? Some people just don't deserve good things in life.

Oof. LOL

Good lord that's insane. LOL It's insane to use over a third of your top 30 visits on prospects at any one school much less a middle of the pack P5 school. It's not like South Carolina is Ohio State or Alabama, etc. They're basically half a step up from UNC. Hell, we beat them last time we played.

This is the only reasonable approach. He played much better down the stretch last season. Well enough for us to commit to him this season. Let's let this season play out and see where it goes. There's no pressing decision that has to be made right now so it's a non-issue.

Welcome to full off-season mode. LOL

I mean, even if Graham was their A and T-Mac was their B it's not like they'd say anything different after the fact. They're going to act like they got "their guy" either way. Without someone with legit sources chiming in its impossible to know the truth and even then, people are gonna choose whether or not they want to believe that "truth".

Based on what? Directly leading up to the draft there was a rumor that the team was split on whether Graham or Nolen was their top DL. It's hard to know what the intentions were simply because for the first time in seemingly forever we didn't just advertise the hell out of our 1st round intentions. I like it and I hope that starts a trend.

Yeah, some people are still bitter about how we never surrounded Cam with good receiving talent. But repeating that same mistake simply because we made it work with Cam would be peak idiocy. Cam was a unicorn in that he could legitimately carry an offense without a lot of help. He could lead your team in passing and rushing both. There are just very, very few of those guys out there and no QB has ever failed because he just had too many weapons. LOL

a whole poo pie LOL

Arguing against the next war is like betting on the sun to rise in the morning. You're just guaranteed to be right. LOL

Overall I'm happy. We've never drafted a receiver this high and that's probably a big part of the reason why we've only had one elite tier level WR in franchise history. Scourton looked like top 10 pick material playing at a lighter weight then bulking up hurt his sack number while he overall still played well. We're going to play him at the lighter weight. Princely is a guy a lot of folks were hot or cold on. Hopefully the hot folks were right. But he has NFL measurables, had double digit sacks last year, and most importantly to me he showed steady progression as a player throughout his college career. The arrow is pointing up. Etienne surprised me. I wasn't expecting us to go RB this early but I think he's a solid compliment to Chuba and most of us expected us to draft a RB at some point in the mid to late rounds so it's not shocking. I don't love the Ransom pick simply because he's not the type of safety I wanted us to draft. I wanted us to draft a deep coverage specialist. But, that's the type of safety the Panthers have never seemed to value and it doesn't seem like anything has changed there. It is what it is. I didn't expect us to wait this long to add a DT in this strong DT draft but Cam Jackson was a guy we showed a lot of interest in throughout the pre-draft process so this clearly wasn't a panic move with DTs flying off the board. This is a guy we liked all along. Mitchell Evans is a well rounded TE that probably projects as an NFL backup which is fine at this point in the draft. Like Etienne, he's another guy with an elite 10 yard split time. What he lacks in downfield ability he makes up for in initial suddenness. That can end up being a lot more important on a football field than deep speed. Horn seems like a guy added at least as much for his return ability as his receiving ability. I like that for a late round pick. It gives a guy multiple paths to making the roster.

The Panthers did briefly have a forum for the fans on their site. Yeah, they probably got tired of getting clowned on for doing dumb poo and just shut it down. LOL

I came over from the old Scout Inc. site. Quite a few of us did. Not sure how many folks are still here from there now. It all kind of runs together in my head at this point and I can't really distinguish one from the other anymore it's been so long ago.

If Caleb Williams doesn't work out it's definitely his fault because the Bears are ALL IN. They went out and got an offensive coach and they've put an embarrassment of riches of skill positions talent around him. It's on him at this point.
