How early would you draft players with injury/character issues?

Just curious if you all were GMs for the Panthers where would you draft these prospects or would they even be on the board? Let's pretend you could trade up or back to get them. Where is the earliest you would get them?

 

Ross

Sidney Jones

Butt

Dalvin Cook

Dede Westbrook

Joe Mixon

Cam Robinson (Just added: Weed and gun possession. Thanks @top dawg)

Ross and Mixon, I'd take in the second round.

Jones in the third/fourth depending upon the board

 

Butt maybe in the fourth, but definitely by the fifth.

Cook would have to be taken by the fifth I'd think. Too much value!

For me, it's all about value. With character concerns, it's value plus risk-reward.

Edit: On second thought, Westbrook wouldn't be an option.

Relative to our picks...

Ross at 40 or a slight trade up.

Jones is a tough one. Maybe at 64, but an Achilles just scares me long term.

Cook- too low to get him. Comp pick or possibly 64 if desperate.

Butt- 5th

Mixon and Westbrook- don't want either to ever step foot near my team at any price.

 You might want to add Cam Robinson. I don't think what he did screams bad character, but some do. If he was there in the second, I'd take him in a heartbeat. If he, Mixon or Ross were there, I'd still probably take Mixon, but it would be a tough decision.

it doesn't matter you're going to face the same scrutiny no matter where the player is taken.

Might as well take your guy where you have him ranked.

I'm just taking value into account. The lower they fall, the lower the risk to my pocketbook.

What did Cam Robinson do again? I know he was involved with something but it hasn't been as talked about as Mixon, Cook and Westbrook.

I think that Robinson's and Mixon's character concerns are overblown. Unlike Westbrook and Cook, they don't have a history. I feel that that matters, and I feel that it should matter to everyone. But...we all have our lines in the sand.

Yup agreed

Would have to do a thorough investigation on all of them, but I'd have to spend a few days with Cook, Westbrook, and their friends & fam to really try to get a feel on them. Even with that, Westbrook would probably be off my board. With that being said:

Ross: Id run up to the podium in the 2nd to pick him.

Jones: 3rd

Butt:4th

Cook: 3rd

Mixon: Run up to the podium with my 2nd 2nd rd pick if he was available.

Westbrook: pass

It's a fine line that's for sure. Daryl Worley was drafted by us after being arrested for domestic violence and pleading no contest. Nobody really has given two shits about it since he was drafted. Now the same people who don't care about Worley would never draft players with a DV record. Personally, I would keep Robinson on the board and take off Cook, Mixon and Westbrook. I just don't want the scrutiny bc they are higher profile players and their situations would be talked about constantly.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      This thread is turning into bizarro world. Most of the anti-Bryce crowd was heavily pro CJ Stroud so I am confused how that ties into any racial element.  Not saying we still don't have some of that crowd in here but it's not like the Prime Cam years where this place was rife with those types.  The anti-Bryce sentiment SEEMS to MOSTLY be rooted in his underwhelming physical stature/abilities and/or his underwhelming overall career to date. All this being amplified by the massive trade haul we gave away for him. So, technically we have missed the opportunity to draft Jaden Daniels AND passed on CJ Stroud. Fairly or not, Bryce hasn't measured up to those type of players at all.

      Because 2 coaches have not allowed him to do it.  And in a real Hail Mary scenario the throw is  further than the clip shown and likey doesn’t allow a clean setup. You can’t go over the top.  So you have to let WRs get downfield and the technical throw is going to be further and as you have to drop back to by time and likely won’t have an ideal setup.

      I can’t stand silent any longer.. He has s sickness.  It will defy any logic people try to bring.  He tried to deny us the freedom of having a negative opinion of a player simply by the color of our skin. Yet we have positive opinions of many black players  Love some of them   I guess they must be house *you know the word* if we like them   I bring it to this: let’s say you are black. are there black people that you don’t like? I brt there are.  But no white people are allowed to dislike them? Because they are maybe shitty people of shitty players or there is just something about them you don’t line. We have to drop this way of thinking.
