2017 Huddle Candy Draft


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

The idea of a candy draft intrigues me. Thus, we shall conduct one. 

Rules: You must select a candy commonly found at any USA gas station. No weird candies. No candies from overseas. No ice cream bars. Items must be commonly found in the candy aisle. 

ROUND 1 - 5 picks

 

Pick 1 - Reese's Peanut Butter Cups - I dare anyone to seriously argue against this pick. The best of both worlds in one delicious package. 

Pick 2 - The original Plan M&M's - So versatile this candy is. Trips, movies, or just at home. Individual morsels that melt in your mouth, not in your hand. Pure genius. 

 

 

 

Please give your thoughts on what the next pick should be.

I'm on board with Reese's at 1 but only if we all agree that it is pronounced like any normal human being would pronounce "Reese" and then add the apostrophe "s". Like something belongs to Reese Witherspoon. Like the creator was probably named Reese and this is his fugging candy. People that say "Reesies" or "Reesy" cup make me want to assist them with seppuku.

Twix is def a top 5 candy. I'll throw in 5th Avenue as a top 5 submittal. Not quite as commercial as some others but man it is a good candy bar.

watchamacallit is strong... 

I have to go Kit Kat.  

It is first off all chocolate with crunchy wafers...

Secondly, it doesn't have peanut butter so won't put some of us into allergic shock. 

Most importantly, if you have to share, it's divided appropriately for almost any occasion. 

1 kit kat =  sharing with more than 1 person, little kids, and " I don't know how I feel about you" and family members you don't  you don't like.

2 kit kat = wives, girlfriends you may be serious about, people you respect. 

3 kit kat = I was scared you might take the whole thing or you look like you needed this more than me.

    • DeAngelo Williams: 1515 yards (2008) Steven Davis: 1444 yards (2003) Christian McCaffrey: 1387 yards (2019) Chuba Hubbard: 1195 yards (2024) Jonathan Stewart: 1133 yards (2009)   DeAngelo Williams 1515 yards in 2008 are most in Panthers history for a season this was when Double Trouble was at it's height. That year he averaged 94 yards a game. Steven Davis missed 2 games 2003 so he comes in at the most yards per game in a season at 103 yards. Mccaffrey averaged 86 yards a game in his 2019 campaign he also recorded 1005 yards receiving making his season statistically the best in Panthers history for a RB, had the Panthers had a better record he could have been a favorite for MVP. Dowdle currently is averaging 81 yards a game despite only starting 3 games thus far. In the games he has started 206, 183, 130 he's averaging 173 yards. In Green Bay he rushed for 130 despite having a 21 yard run wiped out due to illegal procedure penalty that could of saw a 150 yard day.    Top 5 yards per carry. Dowdle 5:6 (2025) Williams: 5.5 (2008) Stewart: 5.1 (2009) Mccaffrey: 4.8 (2019) Hubbard: 4.7 (2024) If Dowdle continues even close to the pace he's on he's poised to break DeAngelo Williams single season Panther rushing record.       
    • The BY9 situation is classic sunk cost fallacy. We traded premium assets to get him. Every few games he flashes the traits that made him appealing (quick reads, touch, composure) but the macro picture doesnt lie. Hes producing at a bottom-tier level across efficiency metrics in yards per attempt, EPA/play, completion percentage over expected, and explosive plays. Instead of objectively reassessing, the organization continues to justify the investment - new coaches, new systems, new excuses - trying to salvage what was invested. Giving him a 5th year is a self inflicted would.  We need to take our lumps and move on
