Mayock/Eisen talk Mixon and the Combine

Recommended Posts

Guys we're talking about whether Joe should be allowed to compete at the Combine, Mayock said there are a few guys who did the same thing Joe did but because they settled out of court were allowed to compete. 

Both agreed that since someone is going to draft him, why not invite him so that teams can talk to him but not let him compete... 

One thing is for sure... he won't be wearing A Panther uniform.

I like Mayock plan of extreme vetting..

If you commit a crime you should have benchmarks to past to get to the combine and more benchmarks when drafted..

It is a horrible thing he did. He will live with that the rest of his life. I am not too up to date on all the details, maybe someone could help me out: he was punished right?

Yes.. Suspended for a year, sued for damages, and did community service..

Now he we'll lose millions as a player and will never see a endorcement deal even if he's good..

Ok thank you. So he's paid the price of his deed. Don't people deserve second chances? Shouldn't he be given a fair shake since he has been punished already? I'm not condoning his behavior, what if he had turned a new leaf?

That's my opinion..

Plus the fact he was a 18 year old kid who made a very dumb mistake.. so yes he deserve a 2nd chance to make good out of a bad situation...

In the end I live in a glass house so i shouldn't throw stones.. At 18 i don't know what i would have done in that situation..

I'd prefer us stay away but it's dumb not to invite him to the combine. Let him come and compete and get grilled by the teams. Hell, maybe the guy changes some minds. Maybe he doesn't, but it's a way for teams to vet the guy without having to use a visit to fly him in. That's a big part of the combine. This is just a bullshit PC move.

Mixon would be considered up there competeing with LF and Cook today in the draft if he were there.  I personally am on the Leonard Fournette train all the way, but this kid Joe Mixon, aside from his terrible action he took against that lady, will most likely put up comparable if not better numbers come his Pro Day since he wasn't invited to the combine.  There are guys at the combine with just as heinous crimes/altercations/allegations,etc.  Kid has paid his dues.  Second chances should be given to the guy.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
