Green-Beckham makes Josh Gordon look responsible. I wouldn't count on him being on our board at all.

 

He has the most pure talent as a receiver in the draft.  He spent a whole season at OU riding the pine and on the Scout Team and didn't get into trouble once.  Please don't compare him to a complete moron like Josh Gordon.

Let's not make him someone that he isn't, and that is worse than Josh Gordon. Quite the exaggeration here. If anything DGB is headed on a similar path, but he is so young, his story is just starting to be written. It is not like he stole a laptop or threw anyone on a bed full of guns (just a joke for those sensitive types.)

 

He smoked marijuana; a substance that I guarantee most on this forum have tried at least once in their life if not more.

 

He just got caught...and was in the wrong state.

 

That is all any of us know. We can assume he has a problem and that he is a bad person like the media does, or we can try not to further tarnish the namesake of a person that very well may be doing all he can to seek the help he needs.

 

Would I draft him? The talent is insane. Closest thing to Calvin Johnson that has come out since the man himself. On the other hand, 1st round guaranteed money would be hard to do.

 

I think the Panthers will pass...especially since they sat a man for an entire season for a crime that he MAY HAVE committed.

 

In my opinion though, Hardy should have played until found guilty by jury, and the Panthers would be stupid to completely write off DGB without a second thought. Schedule multiple workouts and dinners/interviews and decide face to face if this is a guy they should take a gamble on.

 

Biggest boom/ bust player in the draft...but sometimes you have to take risks. Only Gett, Rivera, and Rich can will be able to get close enough to this guy to see if he is worth it.

 

So...would I do it? If I was in a position to talk with the young man, and I see he has taken sincere steps to distance himself from that past.......Hell yes I draft him. Worth the risk to me.

No one is that desperate. If his former coaches are calling him a moron, then what makes you believe he'll pass the combine tests? Come on man...

I don't recall anyone at OU calling him a moron this past year.  Stoops (a way more reputable coach than Missouri's) came out and said nothing but good things about DGB.  Anyway, moron or not AJ Green got a 7 on the Wonderlic and KB got a 5 I think or lower.  He'll be a first round pick, wayyyyyy too much talent not to be.

      Many layers my frend- Panthers had a draft recently. They picked 4 defense players. Each player picked 11, 22, 33, 55 as their number. For some players that number match the round or pre-draft round rank, example- Prince was a 3rd rounder and choose 33. Nic was a 1st rounder on some mock drafts and Dan Morgan said they had him as a 1st, he picked 11. Cam Jackson recently switched his number to 55, same as draft and has been telling Dave he wants to be special over and over.  The 44 was to add GOAT feels, thoughts, and more intrigue to this rookie phenomenon. X files cause it was a great TV show and maybe it was playing when this theory came together.......   I hope this helps!

      The best things Purdy has are certainly important tools for any QB. His accuracy his timing his decision making etc. I feel like he is a high end Teddy Bridgewater. You can compete and win in the regular season with this especially in a weakened NFC but where his limitations come into focus is when you are trying to contend for a Super Bowl you are going against elite and in some instances generational QB's like Mahomes. And when the time has come for him to go up against Mahomes he simply can't get it done. Now certainly he is not alone in that regard and people will point to another highly regarded QB such as Josh Allen who also cannot get by Mahomes. But the difference I see is Allen is not IMO at a phsyical disadvantage in that matchup whereas Purdy is. And that is with what had been to this point a comically stacked roster around Purdy and let's be clear we cannot understate that regardless of which side of the fence we land on in this debate. Purdy has had a top 5 roster and a top 5 coach. And the last time they went to the Super Bowl they leaned on McCaffrey extremely heavily. Now with what they are having to pay him and divert limited resources elsewhere they face a steep climb to get back to the Super Bowl let alone actually win it.

      Lonzo mentioned Melo going to the Clippers, but he also said we would draft Dylan Harper and he isn't making it to 4.
