Wow. That's crazy. My house is in the South Mountains about 25 minutes from the park. Hell, it's a pretty obscure little state park. I'm surprised he even knew about it. Back in the day I was really hoping we were gonna draft BYU QB Jon Beck. He's a big trout fishermen and we had an agreement that I was gonna take him out to some of the NC's best spots (that I'd already warned him we're gonna suck vs. everything out west). I didn't think he was serious until he called me out of the blue a few weeks after Miami drafted him to apologize for the Dolphins screwing up our plans. LOL!

Honestly, not excited about the Horn pick but overall it looks pretty damn good. Like last year, so much hinges on an uninspiring move at QB working out.

Well, if it's all already been poached then I'll definitely pass on this guy.

Give me Dan Morgan, please. God, I loved that guy as a player. Absolute wrecking ball of a LB. That's pretty much what prematurely ended his career too, but like a wild brawling fighter with no pretense of defensive responsibility, you know it's not gonna last but sure is fun to watch for as long as it does.

LOL! That's quality.

Probably headed to Washington or Buffalo like everyone else.

I'll take undersized with ideal athleticism all day everyday over the guy who everyone drools over his Inspector Gadget arms but who can't actually move.

Sounds like he has a ton of potential? Wonder why he dropped? Here's to hoping he pans out.

Probably. But we signed Erving to compete at LT first and foremost. He's going to have to get best out there to end up playing somewhere else.

If we had a crystal ball that this would've happened I wonder if we would've signed Cam Erving?

If you just change your signature to: "I have no opinion to offer, but I think yours sucks" then you'll never have to type again.

That could either be awesome (he's good AND ready to go) or uh oh (everyone else just plain sucks).

I'm just hoping for boom or bust. Either be the one or be the one who gets us the one.

It probably seems worse than it really is for Panthers fans because Skye is one of the worst XP kickers in the league, then again his sample size is among the lowest too since we can't score TDs.

Yep.

Well, I mean XPs went from 19 yards to 32 yards. Still a high percentage kick, but not the total gimme it used to be. It used to be 99% plus. Since the change, it's hovering in the 93-94% range.

Misperception. FG make percentage has been trending upward despite the distances also trending upward. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/NFL/kicking.htm

I get that Skye is intriguing because of his huge leg, but the guy has always been wildly inconsistent. I just don't see that getting any better.

Yeah, I was definitely expecting to add a kicker at least as a UDFA and the way we were picking up late round picks a draft pick wouldn't have been surprising, especially since we spent one on a long snapper.

That was one pre-draft hype train that baffled me. There were a lot of Panthers fans wanting him.

Yeah, Nagy is basically looking like Gase 2.0 IMO.

He got injured. He actually came into camp already injured and it got worse leading to surgery. That lingering knee injury probably played a significant role in him going undrafted.

My favorite two QB prospects in this draft were Fields and Wilson and both ended up landing in awful spots. We'll see how that pans out. I don't think Nagy will get a chance to fully ruin Fields though. If he doesn't get his poo together he's probably gonna get fired.

I have about three acres I have to mow currently with another couple in pastureland. I'm gonna expand the pastureland to get down to around an acre or so that I have to mow.

I just hope that when we're looking at the last few spots, particularly at WR, DB, and LB that special teams ability weighs heavily. I'd like to see us largely move past the days of retaining "core special teamers". Ideally those special teamers should largely be developmental guys. I'd like to see us stop burning valuable roster spots on guys like Karl Hankton and Colin Jones if we can.
