list of prospects we've met with: 2017

most of these guys I've never heard of, which is probably to be expected.  I have watched DE Rochelle listed as DT here) fall in most rankings since the season got underway, but he was well thought of going into the season, and his size fits us.  Banner is interesting because he's 6 feet freaking 9 inches tall, which I don't think has ever been done before at the OT position.  But he's a hog molly for sure.  

Elijah McGuire is very interesting because of his size at RB.  And after drafting 3 CBs last year, we're still looking (as we should be)

I don't care. If Adams and Fournette are gone by 8, it will be Reuben Foster. 

 

 

Jabrill Peppers will be talk about once again after the combine. Kid is going to post monsterous numbers. Draft guys just don't want to talk about him anymore bc that's how it is every year. Gotta hype someone else up. Peppers is a top 15 talent.

Basham and Banner will be day 3 picks for sure. Basham is intriguing because his measurables look like a 3-4 guy, but his length and scouting profile definitely claims that he can play in a 4-3 DE. If he bulks up a little bit, could be a late round gem. 

Banner is interesting because we need an OT and he comes from a pedigree school like USC. However, he looked pretty pedestrian at the Sr. Bowl practices, so he's pretty 'meh', IMO.

The Carolina Panthers plan to hold a private workout with University of Washington wide receiver John Ross, according to a league source.

Ross is one of the fastest receivers in the draft, although there are concerns about his size (5-11, 188) and health history. Ross has had surgeries on both knees, and will undergo shoulder surgery after the combine and his pro day.

 

 

 

 

David Newton ESPN Staff Writer 

Washington wide receiver John Ross posted an unofficial combine time of 4.22 seconds in the 40-yard dash. That would be a combine record. Ross told The Charlotte Observer at the combine he has a private workout scheduled with the Panthers, who have the No. 8 overall pick. Speed and the ability to play the slot could make him attractive there.

Ross would plug right into Ginn's previous role and absolutely kill it!! Already plays drawn up for him in the playbook playing to his strengths. 

The rareness of his speed seems to be SERIOUSLY going under the radar. He's faster than Ginn ever was, and that floors me. Matched with his solid catching (noticed a lot of body catches though), playmaking, and being as quick and athletic as he is fast, I don't see how he falls to us, or how we pass on him if he does.

I know he had bad injuries on both knees, but, you just simply don't run a 4.22 and perform like he did at the combine, topping off a season of performing as a human highlight reel, unless your knees are in outstanding health. Not a concern imo. Size? Not a concern, he has speed nobody else ever has, and will be deadly when used correctly.

    • I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner. 
    • How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.
    • I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
