Lance has been a bust. A little off topic but I went back and looked at the 2011 NFL draft class.. What does Nicola Vucevic, Klay Thompson and Kawhi Leonard have in common? They where ALL still avaliable when we decided to draft Kemba.. Why!!?' :(

Please tell me we have a new scouting dept from then and now.

Kemba was a fine pick that year. The problem was we picked Bismack over all those guys you mentioned based solely on potential over actual production.

Here's an interesting trade....

Scola, Stuckey, and Copeland for Lance, Taylor, and a 2015 2nd round pick?

All three are on expiring contracts and would give Charlotte a chance to go after a pretty solid player with $11 mil in cap space.

PG: Walker, Roberts, Pargo

SG: Stuckey, Henderson, Hairston

SF: MKG, Williams

PF: Scola, Zeller, Copeland

C: Jefferson, Biyombo, Maxiell

Bc Vucevic, Klay, Leonard, etc were low profile guys. Kemba was college basketball great and at the time a really good pick. College great just doesn't translate to the pro.

      I encourage you to go back and watch his college play. Notice how he immediately backpedals to 10 yards behind the LOS on almost every snap. You can't do that in the NFL. Your OTs have no chance of keeping those freak show edge rushers off of you. You can't create a pocket that deep. If you drop back like that in the NFL on a regular basis you're basically on your own. Your OL can't do a whole lot for you. Bryce can chuck it when he has an airport runway in front of him to step up into. There's a reason why "ease of generating velocity" is such a talking point evaluating QBs. It's not how hard or how far you can throw the ball given a perfect situation. It's how hard and how far you can throw the ball in a typical NFL game situation and that's where a lot of my concerns with Bryce were going into the draft. There were way too many plays in his college tape that if you were watching that purely in terms of translating it to the NFL it just didn't work.

      Yeah, like I said I get it. From a revenue perspective I'm not a good customer for them. They've probably intentionally tanked offline franchise mode to try to get people online. Again, not a terrible strategy from a pure business perspective. I can't really be mad at them for doing what's good for business but yeah, from my perspective it still sucks.

      Ok let me be more specific. Smith was a stud before Newton got here do you not agree? Yes, LaFell improved under Cam but then had his best years after leaving the Panthers with Cam as the QB and going to NE. So he improved playing with someone else. Olsen was in Chicage the year before Cam arrived and statistically had the same numbers his first year with Cam.  Hope that's clearer for you.
