Its a tough pick to get excited about TBH. If we took a defensive guy who was fell to us at 25 (like Star or Ealy) I'd feel better about it.

 

Instead, we took a guy at a position we didn't need help at (yeah yeah I know TD is getting older and we didn't have an absolute stud for a 3rd LB, whatever, don't tell me LB was one of the top 5 spots we needed help at) right around where he was expected to be picked at, if not earlier.

 

Gonna trust in the fact that Gettleman is way smarter than the average NFL media writer/scout for the time being, but its hard to feel great about this pick.

B.

 

Not a need, but improves our D. Gives us a guy who can cover HBs, TEs and Slot guys. Can tackle well.  I expect us to use him like a hybrid Mike Mitchel/Thomas Davis kind of deal.

Rate: 8/8 mate

The draft didn't do us any favors. It didn't fall perfectly where a player we really liked dropped to us... But Gettleman took the top player on his board. I like it. We got better today.

I have a friend that works for a draft website and he told me he has a 3rd/4th round grade on Thompson. But I trust Gettleman much more than this guy.

TD said that Shaq is a better version of himself, and he was a great 1st round pick.  You haters are retahh-ded.

 

And just because TD says something means its true or will come to fruition? 

 

Lmao

 

As for the Grade. 

 

Id have to go with a B. 

 

Shaq has come question marks. This could turn out great or so so. 

 

Gotta give it some time.

I think TD has a much better concept of who is a better version of himself than any of us do, yes.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Basbear · Posted

      Brother re-check that guarantee...my page shows 30mill.....thats means he's staying in my book for at least til the end of 2026.  Im going to be my normal honest self, besides watching like half of the SB, I didn't know the guy. My guess is Panthers have a "planned model of paying players" and they almost had to spend a chunk of space on a DLman after Dbrown injury season gave them a nightmare out-come of worst D in NFL scoring. Once Milton got above Dbrown payments, they went with the plan B. A player whom the "co-GM" put his name with. Brad said turk would not be a problem off-field and leader, which the Panthers need badly. I dug in with the google-fu, I found out  I also found him playing lots of NT, which was shocking given the small frame. He seems ready for a bigger role and had a great SB too. IDK, I feel Dan Morgan was dead set on not going into this season without more DL depth and its there. The real deal is this, nearly all FA take one year to "adjust". I think turk is trying too hard and causing injuries as a result for his contract. Dbrown called turk "strong as hell" and I know for a fact Dbrowns has insane core and strength numbers. They lift together with the 50 LB difference...... you always lift with a guy who's similar in strength cause you can leave on the 8 wheels, let the other guy lift while you rest and go after him.  I do wish he had a better beginning to his panther career, 3 games for him to do so and it would cover up the low points if he made a few plays.... Again it felt like they almost had to make move/spend $$$ and Morgan was going to have DL depth this season no matter what...My best guess.

      There's a reason DC wasn't getting calls to be a HC. He wasn't ready. His indecisiveness is infuriating. His lack of awareness is mystifying. He jumped at the chance to grab the David Tepper retirement plan and who can really blame him. Maybe with time he can grow into the job. But we're on year 8 of our 7 year rebuild. I think I'm gonna need a hip replacement before we get a decent HC.
