it's the in thing.

you should try it and be like the cool kids.

Yeah, it's sad when the "in thing" is the exact opposite of staying calm and using common sense.

BTW, can anybody tell me how many rookie DT's actually made a big impact last year? It usually takes a season or two for rookie CB's and DT's to really stand out even if they're 1st round picks. Hell, there have been very few 1st round DE's that have even made much of an impact as rookies in the last few years.

Where is this ability you speak of? I haven't seen either of them make a play in any of the preseason games.

Corvey had some good penetration in the 1st and 2nd game. But beyond that it was his and Sherrod 1st games of their career. How can you or anyone know how they will be as players.

Hop I ask you a ? What is the panther track record when it comes too secondary picks in the draft?

the only thing that really pissed me off about the past draft is that after brown we really didn't go after any pure athletes.

at that point in a draft like that I think you just take the blackest, meanest, fastest SEC pipe hittin niggas in the draft you can find and worry about teaching them a position later.

every single d lineman the giants draft, for example, looks like something from that mutant league football. as long as they don't have any outstanding warrants, drug problems, or family advice from travis henry, do it.

We're even considering writing off rookie 2nd day picks before the 4th game of preseason?

LOL, it is amazing how impatient and irrational most posters are behaving. I have never seen so many otherwise sensible people be so ridiculous. The 13th can't get here soon enough.:eek:

lol, I know. No comparison. But Dwayne Jarrett? Hmmmm...

i mean what can you do

he's huge, has good speed, and put up great numbers, albeit in an unreal offense against subpar competition.

i wish i could have been there during his interview with the team.

Martin has made some plays. The people that say otherwise either haven't been paying attention, or they're just so mad that their guy wasn't drafted, that they refuse to see it.

I didn't have a guy at that point in the draft. I'm just saying. Really, you never questioned either of those picks?

As I said, we ALL knew DT was the weakest/thinnest position on the roster. Regardless of what happened to Kemo... What if we would've added another 320+ lbs. guy right next to Kemo and brought in Lewis and whoever in the rotation to help with pass rush.

And from what's been written, Vaughn Martin can rush a passer at 330. So we could've drafted a guy who was good in both areas. Almost no one on this board knew who either of those guys were when we drafted them. So, naturally, you question it to a degree.

I haven't counted either of them out. And I believe Martin has great ability. Generally he's been right there on his guy even if he allowed the catch. I think the switch to safety will help. But, both of those picks could've been used more efficiently...

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
