Carolina Panthers yesterday. Carolina has the 25th overall pick.

1st Team All-American for the Noles last year. Projected 1st-2nd R. NFL.com rates him as the #2 run-stuffing DL prospect:

Need that elite d-line back like 2013. If Ealy turns into a stud and we get this guy, holy sh*t. Don't even bother trying to run on us or drop back to pass. Just kneel every play so you don't get your players killed.

He's a stud but he and Star play the same position and outside of goal line situations there would really be no reason to ever have them on the field at the same time. I know Cole has to be replaced sooner rather than later but doing so with a 1st round pick is terrible value in my opinion. There just aren't enough snaps for a 1 technique DT to justify having two 1st rounders there for me.

He definitely fits the blue goose, BPA mantra though so I can't say I'd be shocked if he was the pick at 25.

They could be looking at him as a candidate to fall a bit to 57, kind of like Ealy. Would be great value there in the 2nd.

It worked for the Giants. Twice.

Get used to it. Gettleman will draft DE/DT in the 1st/2nd round yearly.

Goldman fits the BPA at 25 profile much more so than he does as a candidate to fall to the late 2nd.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
