At 240, that is damn impressive. Cook ran about the exact same but weighing much less.

Doubt Fournette makes it out of the top 5 now unfortunately.

 

Then we can get an elite safety or DE???

While I would love to see Fournette in a Panther uniform, if he doesn't slide, then I'd be happy picking many of the other players.  He just makes so much sense for us, it's almost like we're starting to have a relationship with him before we even talk to him.  That break up will be terrible for me!

I tend to think the same, I think the 4.5 will turn some teams off also, by no means is that slow when you consider what he brings as a total package. But it won't entice or excite teams in the top 5. 

CLE / SF / CHI / JAX / TEN /NYJ / SD

All of those teams have needs at the other elite impact positions available (DL/S) and you have to anticipate one QB is likely to go in the top 7 as well, IMO the fact he ran in the 4.5 range almost guarantees he lasts until we select at 8.

Not sure his timed speed really changes much of anything rather than confirms what personnel staff already saw on tape. One could see the home run speed in the open field when he often pulled away from opposing players in the secondary. He looked like a 4.5 guy on film and ran that way today. I think regardless of what he did at the combine his stock would remain within the same 2-10 range and that still holds. His medicals will be more important for teams.

      Canes vs Panthers 7pm

      If it’s all the same to you guys, I’d like to use this thread for Tuesday nights game as well to keep this hate going. I have a feeling Tuesday vs the panthers is going to be violent in that arena.    @LinvilleGorgecan you please add “and Tuesday” to the game thread?  They play the Panthers again Tuesday. Thank you sir!

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      Nobody on the huddle is saying we have an elite group offensively across the board. They aren't great. They're young. If you are expecting someone to agree with your position of blaming everyone around Bryce Young nearly three full seasons into his career you are going to be left holding the bag save for a handful of people who act like they are paid to defend his honor. Bryce Young is not a guy who has had to claw and fight his way into starting jobs in football. He's had the best to work with and been gifted roles since he was a teenager. The Panthers have one of the youngest rosters in the league and with us needing an infusion of young defensive talent in the upcoming draft we're only going to get younger. We need a QB who possesses the ability to elevate those around him. If you can't agree with me on that then there's nothing further to discuss.

      All Bryce and the Panthers had to do was split with the Saints and a rookie QB. The bar was so low. They even had a whole bye week to prepare. The time for singing kumbaya was before that game. Anyone still talking about Bryce earning a second contract 43 games into his career is living a fantasy. He might get one from the Tepper owned Panthers but he's damn sure not earned it.
