I dont understand why people get so uptight of Mel Kiper, his biggest claim to fame is not being the best but being the first NFL draft expert. plus the whole draft is a crap shoot anyway

I used to get butthurt too, but it really is just a crapshoot and his guess is as good as any amateur's. 

No one can measure heart or desire, so guys like Norwell go undrafted and guys like Brady and AB fall to the 6th round. 

I still love the draft and entertained immensely by it year in and year out.

Well, to be fair, in that particular instance Kiper was right.

Used to get together with two friends to watch the draft.  First year we did was the year that happened. Every year after that, whenever they'd introduce him, we'd say "Who in the hell is Mel Kiper, Jr?"

    • Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows
    • I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.
    • Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
