He only really carried it alot last year. Its not like he did it all 4 years and is burnt out. Seems to be alot of Bama bias here, and I hate Bama. I think he has fewer carries than all the top backs coming out. I hate the Jacobs comprison too, i just dont see it.

Yeah I agree. I'd hate for him to be like Brandon Jacobs.

 

Not that I want Henry in the 1st. I'd take him in the 3rd or later. But...what does this even mean?

 

Jacobs had a pretty productive career in NY. He may not have played 10 years. But how many RB play that long? He had 6 pretty good years. Not bad.

Actually enjoyed this one.  Most seem to put a player with the team of their choice and then backfill them to justify why a particular player will end up with whatever team.

What I found interesting was Henry would be available here.  Only thing that scares me is I heard someone mention his name in the same sentence as Eric Shelton, our 2nd round bust many years ago.

Henry and Shelton have literally nothing in common. Its a ridiculous comparison, just someone citing a player we drafted at rb that was a bust. Hurney drafted lots of those in round 2.

Actually I have heard that Henry runs upright just like Shelton did so it isn't a ridiculous comparison.

A lot of runners ran/run upright, including Eric Dickerson (and I could go on). That's not a litmus test.

    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...  
    • Canes are so fascinating. Despite inconsistent defense and poor goalie play they keep winning. 
    • I like Morgan's approach but I'll wait for a few winning seasons before giving too much praise.
