Gurley: Ready by training camp


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

#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.

    • I don't think working from memory is going to be very productive or useful. You would need to compare them all, which is far easier to do from the breakdowns of each game. That has tiered charts that give real data.  But, even then that wouldn't substitute for a trained eye(s) doing detailed film analysis to attempt to determine if we are modifying the offense dramatically for Bryce.
    • I think front office and general team culture under new ownership is sort of on the right track. The rookies all look incredible compared to where you'd expect each one of them to be right now. Lee's in game coaching is awful, he might be ok as a culture and developmental guy but that can't outweigh the in-game miscues and bad game plans. If LaMelo can't figure out the ankles then I think you gotta trade him for a haul, can't keep having your seasons lost every year because he can't stay on the court. And I say that as a big fan of him. Miller I think is unlucky, he looks likely to be an elite core player for us, but if he can't put together a stretch of healthy seasons he would trend towards LaMelo and need to be moved. I used to like Miles on the court a lot more but nowadays he's just an empty stat guy who needs to go. The short lived hot start to the season was fun but unless LaMelo and Miller both get and stay healthy within the next few weeks I can't even see us being a play-in team this year. And even if they do get healthy, we're probably looking at play-in at best, maybe barely compete for that fringe 6th seed.
