Panthers will pick 8th


stirs

Recommended Posts

I think the Panthers win tomorrow.  I also previously attached a scenario which the Panthers win the last two and still pick 11-involved are everything from likely scenarios such as Buffalo winning out as they're favored to do, to the Bears beating the Redskins which increases the Bucs SOS over us just enough if we both finish 8-8.

I truthfully believe the best of all scenarios is winning tomorrow and losing the last game-the Falcons miss the playoffs, and we still get our top 10, maybe even top 8, pick.  Philly over a Cowboys team that's clinched and San Diego over the Browns then Chiefs in the last game ever in San Diego are very possible.

Bradberry and Worley are playing well and improving. But, if we are picking in the mid 11-18 a cornerback could possibly be the pick. We still need a nickel badly. 

Cam Robinson is questionable both on and off the field but he's another option. 

Barnett, Cook, Ramczyk, Ross and Davis are the other options depending on their stock now till combine.

Barnett is so insanely above those others from a position premium and talent/value perspective it's not even funny.

Ramczyk is at least mildly intriguing based on the obvious need at OT and Wisconsin's ability to produce them.  But he's likely going to have hip surgery and miss the combine.  That, combined with limited reps against top competition and the need to add more strength, and he hardly sounds like a 1st rounder to me, as much as even I'd like to warm up to the idea.

Ramczyk has not declared yet and will have surgery right after their bowl game or the combine, if he declares, which will keep him sidelined for a minimum of 4 months.

Think he will be a second rounder

That's why I said Corner could be the pick. Teez, Sidney, Quincy, Lattimore, Humphrey, King, etc. are all very intriguing prospects.

We are back up to 9th at the moment and pulling hard for Cincy, who, with a win, will put us at 8th

Then there is one week to go

Cincy should win against a scrub no name backup QB.  The Chargers should win in the last game ever in San Diego after the embarrassment today.  #7.  Fingers crossed.

Any word on whether Mike McGlinchey has decided if he's going to return to Notre Dame? I know Charlie Campbell from Walterfootball.com said in his recent mock that his sources at N.D. expect McGlinchey to go pro. If he does, he'd be a great pick for us, IMO. He's got legitimate franchise left tackle potential.

My only concern is that, if he does declare, he could shoot up draft boards and be gone before we pick.

Everything I saw in Oct and November said he was coming back to school.  Maybe insiders know better.

Is he a bit smallish?

The fact that he's even so wishy washy about coming out after so many years in the program, struggled so much after switching from RT, and struggled so much with penalties as he is supposedly a high strung personality, are all major red flags as a first rounder.  Zero chance he's our top 10 pick.  Maybe if we trade back multiple times and/or use our 2nd round pick.  But if THAT'S GMan's answer to our OT problem then everyone better show up at BOA demanding Berry AND JPP.  I'd honestly feel MUCH better with Remmers out of the gate until he'd be ready, a scenario that I hate since we must come out guns blazing next year.

Seemed like the Bengals and Chargers were playing for their pick with 3 missed FGs to win or tie/win. I'd like to say we were as well, but I think we just played like crap.

Irks me even more since Barnett is so often mocked to the Bengals.

Truthfully, a great case can be made, right now, that we will pick 9 regardless of whether we win or lose next week when you look at the slate of games.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
