An interesting development. Considering the Browns might - though probably not - go for Tribusky, imagine trading up to 3 to get Myles Garrett.

Unlikely, but just saying it could be possible.

Take a look:

Tweet Norris is referring to:

Likely just smoke and mirrors this close to draft day, but you never know.

I haven't understood the idea of Garrett being far and away the consensus 100% number 1 pick and the idea that anyone over him would be stupid. He's probably the top player for most but I can understand having Thomas, Fournette, or even a QB over him. I wouldn't agree although I think Thomas is close and in some ways I'd rather have him as a Panther than Garrett and I think Fournette is closer than people think, but I can understand having others over Garrett. Whichever way it goes I think one of our top tier 1 guys will be there at 8. QBs will go ahead of us and Allen, Lattimore, Hooker may all go ahead of us too. That leaves Thomas, Adams or Fournette there for us.

I love Barnett. One of my top players in the draft. But Garrett's physical attributes that Barnett can never get should absolutely factor in. For the Panthers I kind of like both Thomas and Barnett over Garrett though. Unless all three were sitting at 8, I would much rather take Barnett if we go end there than to try to trade up for Garrett even if he fell to 3.

Not this SEC bullpoo.

It's been debunked. More NFL studs have came from the ACC, PAC-10, and BIG 10 than the SEC. Garrett remains a stud. Who the fug did Watt sack anyways? Oh that's right... average guys not playing football now.

  I would like to see this information that "debunked" the theory that the SEC has put the most players in the NFL. And what is a "stud" player by definition? Going to need that for clarity.

Oh, so now we're resorting to the term "stud." 

Bottom line: The SEC produces more pros than any other conference. 

Deal with it, internalize it, and accept it. Or, continue to hate, but it won't change perception or reality.

Yep, I knew we should have taken Gabbert or Locker over Cam.

Unreal.

Quality over quantity.

I could care less. A poo ton of these SEC prospects have washed out the NFL before year three. It's all inflated garbage... but hey, if y'all wanna praise JAGs then you guys go ahead.

With "facts" like that to back up your statement, how could anyone question you. Impressive research.

Yeah, fug Kuechly, Watt, E. Thomas, Olsen, R. Wilson, Short, A. Donald, Kelce, A. Rodgers, A. Peterson, Brady, Mack, Kalil, L. David, Luck, G. McCoy, Gronk, L. Fitzgerald, Rivers, etc etc etc

 

 

Yep, unreal.

So your basis is using 4 other conferences combined(5 since you have the Big East in there) and comparing them to one. And them having more means the SEC isn't better because of that. Do I get to make a list going back to 1999 since you have Brady on there? This is comical.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By frankw · Posted

      Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.

      He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!

      But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
