This is the Huddle's 13th draft week.

As is tradition on the Huddle, a mod or myself will be making a topic for each draft pick Thursday - Saturday. This keeps people from trying to make the first topic and preventing 20 from getting created as a result. 

We will be cracking down on personal attacks and other general dumbassery. 

 

Things you can look forward to from your fellow Huddlers.... 

 

  • Irrational knee jerk reactions to unpopular picks. Here is a fun link for reference...

 

  • Gettleman hatred for not picking (insert your fave local prospect name here) in the (round number here). 
  • 20 threads started for each draft pick, most of which pretty much say the same thing. 

 

What you can do to help make this joint a better place to be....

  • Use the official thread for general individual draft selection discussion. 
  • Keep topic refreshing at a reasonable rate. Refreshing every 10 seconds is really hard on the server. Maybe try every 30 seconds.

Looking forward to Dex's full fanboy mode video after the first round.

The Star pick is one of my favorite picks of all time and we all probably felt exactly like Dex did in the video. The 2016 equivalent would be a guy like Treadwell falling.

That draft day and prospect thread needs to be posted too. It was insane.

Oakland was sitting in the top three in prime position for Star and traded down to 12, right before us and the Jets. With Star's medical issues I figured they knew he would fall right before the DT-needy teams came up. They took DJ Hayden instead.

The Panthers website interviewed Eric Washington and he couldn't stop smiling. He said he'd never seen such a strong concensus on who to take.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
