#Georgia RB Todd Gurley (ACL), who had medical rechecks yesterday & today, checked out fine, source said. Viewed as good to go for the draft

Does this effect your opinion of the Panthers possibly selecting him?

( Yes yes, he may not be there for you morons that like to point that out in every topic. Him not bring there is a given, it may happen, we get it, now stfu)

Let's just say I'd be cautiously optimistic if we drafted him. I'd love the upside and the possibility of landing an elite workhorse back... but if can't stay healthy it's not worth it. His running style with NFL defenders banging him repeatedly is worrisome. I'm just not sure he could handle 20+ carries a game once Stew is no longer a Panther.

Ultimately I'd much rather take a healthy back with #1 potential in rounds 2-4.

I am fully on board the Gurley train. I might still wonder about the "what if" if Shaq Thompson isn't ours. But the first time Gurley scores some spectacular TD I will forget haha.

thats good news, hope we draft him . i wouldn't mind trading up and jumping sandiego and arizona to get him because i feel they are our biggest threats in getting gurly.

I saw a mock somewhere that had the Falcons taking him. I'm not sure we could really move up even past San Diego. Not without sacrificing picks that Gman could use to draft more gems. This draft is loaded with great talent in rounds 3-5.

i seen that too but idk if anyone will reach on gurly that early in the draft. im thinking he falls to the 15 - 17 range and i think we can get away with trading our first and maybe a  3rd rounder to trade up . all depends what players are falling.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.

      Totally agree with you, if we had invested in drafting a corner or two I wouldn’t even ponder adding Ramsey. But, to be honest we legit added nobody to our corner room this offseason we have nobody worth developing. Even if Chau Smith Wade is better then what I think, he is the only guy we have invested draft capital into outside of our starters.

      Look at his snap counts, your telling me that his entire college and pro football career every coach he has had has misused him? No offense but I don’t think you understand the role of a slot corner. Mike Jackson is the literal definition of an outside zone corner, he would be totally inept as a slot corner. Ala why he has been an outside corner his entire career.
