Honest Question

Before yesterday, had there ever been a healthy but inactive first round rookie for the Panthers?

 

I can't think of one. The last two years first round picks barley see the field when healthy. Why? We know Shaq can play well. Vernon has shown flashes, why not give him more chances?

Could placing Butler on the inactive list be a shot at Gettleman by Rivera. Pointing out to him that he did not need a DT as much as, say, another TE like Hunter Henry?

Don't think Ron works that way, never know - maybe the kid was late to a meeting or something?

I'll ask another question .. If Greg caught that pass on 4th down did you honestly have faith in Gano to make the FG? 

No but I'd have a little bit of faith in Cam getting a TD after that. Still a lot of time when that happened. And it was 3rd down, the sack was on 4th.

I don't think so. Rivera is so locked into his veteran starters that he wouldn't pull Dickson in favor of Henry even if he had drafted him.

Honestly with all the other stuff from this season... having a huge cap surplus and not spending it, drafting 47 rookie CBs, moving Remmers to the left, Shula and RR doing the same poo over and over and hoping for different results... nothing surprises me.

 

Does anybody know WHY he was inactive?

If we had beat writers worth a damn they would ask the question instead of 500 questions about Luke's concussion

Oh god, I hope so.

I need Stoic Ron to take shots at and do whatever he possibly can to piss off his boss, Da Gahdfahda.

I NEEDZ IT.

    • Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.
    • I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.
    • Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
