Chris+Hackett+SE+Louisiana+v+TCU+AU14w50

 

Chris Hackett, is listed at 6'2 195 pounds. This looks to be close to his size, based off when I watch him in games. He is from Tyler, Texas, and has been playing on a very good TCU defense. Hackett is a very instinctive safety that has the ability to play single high, on a hash, in a two high look, and in the box as extra run support. Very good open field tackler, and wraps guys up, rather then going for the kill shot. Does lunge tackle, but grabs cloth, and legs to secure tackle to the ground. Had 75 tackles his junior year.

Has played some robber, when he starts high, and fly’s down to play the intermediate middle of the field. Reads the quarterback very well. Does not take many false steps, when breaking on the football.  Have ball-hawking abilities, as exhibited with his 7 INTs.  Takes the proper angles in run support, as well as tracking the football. I think his versatility will intrigue the panthers because he can play both safety spots really well.  Has very fluid hips, and pretty clean footwork with no extra steps when reading and reacting. Will have to show his deep speed, because I do question it. Has to run a decent time 40 at the combine.

Carolina likes to play both of their safeties in both roles, and one of the reasons why Charles Godfrey started. Hackett has shown the ability to play man-to-man coverage, and has the height to match up with tight ends over the middle, and outside. Can blitz from the edge, which Carolina does with its safeties as well. Hackett would be perfect for the panthers. Draft media thinks only 1 safety is worth a top 75 pick, but I think Hackett is a solid 3rd -4th rounder. He is also my 2nd safety, behind Landon Collins.

With the release of DeCoud I'd say it's a sure thing we draft another safety somewhere in this draft. I like Hackett.

Thoughts of James Sample out of Louisville? Like his game as well.

 

i got to find some games of his. Louisville has been producing some DBs lately tho.

      I must apologize, my sarcasm at times doesnt translate well in text form lol. At this point I would welcome us signing him, Trey Lance, trading for Jameis Winston, asking about Deshaun Watson and playing phone tag with Tom Brady before I ever fully entertain a season of Bryce Young being the defacto Starting Quarterback of the Panthers.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.
