Why I feel like we should trust Gettleman more

So the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft is over and many Panthers fans are wondering what in the fug were doing as an organization. We didn't select a LT or a WR in the first, we took Shaq Thompson and now everyone is losing their fuggin minds. Do me a huge favor guys, look at Dave Gettleman and his past drafts he's had with Carolina and find more than 4 terrible picks I bet nobody can do it. Tyler Gaffney doesn't count since now the patriots basically stole him from us, and he got injured anyway. It is understanding that you really can't gague Gettleman's success until about 5-6 years aka long term. What I want y'all to do is look at the short term, all the players he drafted last year started or at some point they played.

I challenge those who said Benjamin was a bad pick because of his drops in college to eat crow now, okay some of you say that he still drops easy passes but find me one rookie in last years class of WR's picked after Benjamin who's stats compared. I bet you can't do it, because it was not even fugging close. Mike Evans, Odell Beckham Jr and Kelvin Benjamin were the best in no order but obj obviously killed it last season. So was there a better pick ??????? What about last season ? I'm not saying I agree with everything the man does because I thought letting Steve Smith go was a mistake, but look at last seasons draft and tell me one pick of whom there is no hope for?

So now this guy who can play Rb, LB, Safety, and possibly CB gets drafted a tremendous athlete and now y'all lose your fugging minds ? Give me a fugging break!! Who else were we gonna take at 25 ??? Did you really expect Flowers to fall in our laps ?? Wr is so deep I don't even wanna hear it. Cooper and White were out of our range because that's the fugging price you pay for winning your division and making the playoffs. Two years in a row never done before in the NFC South, when Gettleman took Kk AND Star everyone panicked OMG OMG we don't need two tackles !!! Just where in the Capital FUG are y'all at now??????

So what about the potential girlfriend killer ?? Were we gonna take that guy ? Hell no. Oh Jesus let's see uh the Cardinals took our boy humpheries too eh ? Were talking about a guy who has "size" issues for LB in the NFL. Bull shiz look at Sam Mills and any other undersized LB it don't make a Fug.. The kid can get bigger if the panthers need him to Jesus, there's this thing called a fugging weight room for Christ sakes. What about Shaq's instincts ? So the Fug what ? That can come with film study and can be coached. What can't is what we have in Shaq Thompson. He can kick return run the rock, tackle, pick off passes and cover man to man.

Of course we should! If he listened to the experts, we would have taken Morgan Moses or that USC WR over Kelvin.

Fans only know what the media can present or by what they saw on the one game viewed on CBS.

There are plenty of reasons why he does what he does

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
