Verge's mock draft


Verge

Recommended Posts

I think their is going to be an emphasis on offense in this draft, guys who can be molded to the roles Norv needs for the offense to grow around Cam Newton. 


R1 24: Hayden Hurst, TE, SC 
Looks very much like Greg, but a bit more versatile, will be a jack in our offense, and we will see a lot of 2 te sets this year with Hurst. 

R2 55: Justin Reid, S, STA
A very rangey FS with top end speed. We need safeties and he makes sense. Could very easily see Jessie Bates here as well.

R3 85(could trade up for him): Rashaad Penny, RB, SDST
Multi tool back built like a bowling ball, would be awesome in between the tackles, and can pair with McCaffrey with pass catching. 

R3 88: DaeSean Hamilton, WR, PST
Smooth route runner with enough speed for seperation, really round out our receiver core. 

R5 161: Jaylyn Holmes, DE, OHST
Solid defensive end depth that can turn into a true starter. 

R6 197: Levi Wallace, CB, ALA 
Long armed corner that can play zone and has excellent ball skills.

I love this draft. I really don't see the problem with his age. I think he is going to be awesome in our offense with Greg. I feel like Cam's best year is when we had Shockey and Olsen. The rest of the picks love even more. Would love this draft!

Yeah, I could see that. Hurney basically filled holes on D in free agency so he would be able to focus on offense during draft weekend.

If I felt like DJ Moore would get to us, I would think that might be the pick as well.

So what are you hearing if Moore is there he is the pick but if he isn't then Hurst is the pick. What are they saying they like about Hurst so much?

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
