Nah, didn't look good this year and bailed on his team.

Yeah the bailed on team part is the kicker. Not sure what happened but doesn't pass the smell test.  Very unfortunate because his measurables are off the charts good and he had the potential to be great value in a RB loaded draft.  Jalen Hurd's don't grow on trees physically.

Extra sad because the Supplemental Draft this year puts us in the top 10 of every round lottery while likely picking at the end of every corresponding round in 2018.

Pass, there are plenty of backs that are better.

Don't disagree, but we have multiple needs and the pick would likely be a late 2018 one, allowing us to keep our picks this year.

Haven't really followed his story.

Details?

5 star talent out of high school, dark horse Heisman candidate entering the year, off the charts physical height/weight/speed measurements, bell cow back, good receiver out of the backfield, projected 2nd Round 2017 pick last offseason-had a falling out with teammates and coaches, said he would transfer, didn't, now in no man's land-Supp Draft.

I'd like to know more about the "falling out".

I don't really know his story but If he is talented, why not? It wouldn't be costly. If money doesn't convince him to show a little more dedication, then he is out of the league.

He's talented.  Might definitely make for an interesting decision in July if RB is not a value pick with any of our 8 picks.  The stink of him leaving Tennessee is rotten, but from a skill standpoint there'd be huge value for a likely late 2018 pick.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      The problem is if he leaves, all of the Bryce fanboys will use it as an excuse for any regression or lack of progress that Bryce shows. Despite having an expensive OL and 2 first round picks at WR. I really would like to see the real Bryce this year before the 5th year option next spring.

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
