I dont know how many time that it has to be said. There is no way that DGB was on our board. Just no way.

But yeah, we'd probably have picked Humphries in the first had both been available

 

Kind of like theirs was no way we were trading up?

gettleman Said in his presser that their guys Was Being tanken fast and it Was time to make a move.

Do you Think he would go out and say 'looking at the way the board fell, the organisation decided to change it views on domestic violence.' After picking DGB?

Gman was likely working the phones well before the DGB pick. Even if he wasn't, it's probably all a big coincidence. It had nothing to do with DGB, and everything to so with grabbing Funchess.

Gman's hands were tied by Jerry Richardson on DGB.

Kind of like they said this draft would be about speed...

We have 5 picks left.

We've added Ginn, first and foremost. That being said, we worked out Jamison Crowder and Marquez Clark, with 4.4 speed, maybe even 4.3 with the latter. Stephon Diggs has 4.4 speed, as well as The McBride who ran two 4.41s at the Combine.

There is still some legit speed out there, some with special teams ability to boot.

They never said the draft was about speed, that was the offseason and getting Ginn added speed. Added speed to ST as well.

Funchess isn't slow, he has a deceptive speed and didn't run well in Indy. He plays fast and that's what matters.

    • Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.  
    • I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.
    • Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
