How Would You Feel If Gettleman picks Marshon Lattimore with pick #8?

There's been alot of talk about DEs, the top safteys, and Fournette, but there's not been much talk about the top CBs. Is everyone just assuming there's no chance we take one early because of the picks we made last year? I'm curious as to what you would think if we took Lattimore with 8. 

Or how would you feel if he made an otherwise curveball pick that no ones really expecting or just very low prob? Like Mike Williams, Corey Davis, Lattimore, Charlton, Rueben Foster, John Ross, Jabrill Peppers, OJ Howard or any OT ? 

As for Lattimore I wouldn't hate it. I'm guessing he'd overtake Worely's stating spot and Worely and whoever our other backup CB is could spell them coming off the bench. Having two lockdown corners isn't really anything to complain about but its most certainly not the sexiest pick considering most fans want either a DE or an offense player like Fournette . 

The only pick I wouldn't like is Ruben Foster or Jabrill Peppers. Pretty much any of the other guys in the top 20 or so I'd be okay with .

I'd much rather go John Ross over Lattimore if we go with a curveball type pick.

Ross is fun as hell to watch and I can only imagine the possibilities with him paired with a guy like Cam. Ross can also make guys miss with the ball in his hands which is a lot of these "burners" can't do. 

Adoree Jackson is someone I consider one of the most athletic guys in this draft and John Ross put him on his ass at the LOS

Adoree looked great at the combine but I'm not really a fan. He's a good returner and probably nickel in the NFL

So do I.

If I'm New Orleans this is who I draft and let him control the D for years 

If I'm Jacksonville or Tenn, Foster is who I'd draft. But they're too stupid to do that. That's why they'll keep drafting in the top.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.

      Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
