Would there be a double standard if..

For some reason Dorial Green-Beckham is selected by the Carolina Panthers in this year's draft? Signs are pointing to Hardy not coming back mainly due to the domestic violence events that occurred last year.

DGB is a once in a lifetime prospect. At Missouri he was a student. On the field he is everything you look for in a wide receiver. 6'6 230, 35" vertical, 4.49 forty time, it's an intriguing prospect. If he falls to the second or below and the Carolina Panthers are there and select him, would you think of it as a double standard? In case you haven't heard DGB has been in some off field issues. Being caught with marijuana, allegedly pushing a woman down the stairs. Red flags.

Personally I'd be ecstatic with the pick due to the potential wr Corp. I wouldn't be quick to judge. I just hope this franchise values talent when they see it and takes a risk from time to time.

if we gave him $13 million and he gets in legal trouble and the front office cuts a deal with the commish to put him on a paid vacation instead of unpaid leave and he declines the opportunity to be on panthers property and work out in our building in favor of his rap career and we still tried to retain him and sign him to a long term deal...

 

then it'd be a double standard.  but we're not touching him with a ten foot pole so it's a moot point.

in the end only one team is going to draft the kid and the panthers will be one of 31 other franchises that either passed or, if he doesn't make it out of the first, didn't trade up to get him.  there are probably good teams that don't even have him on their board so shove your snarky "har har only choir boys here in carolina" bullshit

 

the panthers aren't that weird, different, or special in spite of your limited perspective

The hype on this guy is getting ridiculous.

People have him as the next Jerry Rice, Michael Irvin and Cris Carter all rolled into one.

C'mon now - his last name has both 'Green' and 'Beckham' in it. Kind of like how every DB with the last name 'Cromartie' is an All-Pro.

Maybe I wouldn't question it as much if it weren't coming from the same crowd that proclaimed Stephen Hill to be the answer to our receiving woes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
