Round 5, Pick 33, 169th Overall The Carolina Panthers Select LB David Mayo, Texas State

[WUnderhill]

I get not every guy will be a starter, but this guy is gonna be buried so deep on the depth chart. Not so sure about this. Seemed like there were opportunities to get a guy here who could compete to get actual playing time.

Here's a good write up on him

David Mayo is describing life in a shed while he was at junior college in Santa Monica. All he could afford. Incredible.

I'm going to crack the fug up when Shaq ends up on the practice squad and this guy is the starter.

So I'm guessing we may not want Klein to be the only guy for backup MLB. This probably puts Jacobs & Reddick off the roster.

 

My guess:

 

Starters: Shaq Thompson-Luke Kuechly-Thomas Davis

 

Main backups: Mayo, Glanton, Trusnik, Klein

 

We carry 7 total.

lol at ppl complaining about this pick. 

 

this dude def could be a diamond in the rough. 

 

he was very productive in college. 

 

if he has NFL athleticism than is is def a nice potential pick that could come in and contribute right away.

The ghost of Karl Hankton.

I'm actually warming up to the pick, mainly because I trust G-man. Mayo seems like a very hardworking, determined guy. I feel like he'll fit right in with the blue collar demeanor our coaching staff and players try to exemplify.

from the youtube vid, this guy gets to the ball quick and has some violent hands for causing fumbles.

D.G loading up competition at all possible positions including LB. Let them all fight it out for the backup spots.
