I voted yes, but I do not feel a whole lot of excitement for who we got. I fear that with the loss of norwell, our run game is going to suffer. I don’t know who will step up to the plate this year. A WR is great, but I’m still having flashbacks to cam getting pounded by DEs relentlessly. Was hoping for a bit more OL help. 

That said, I don’t follow college football much, so I don’t know very well if any of these guys are boom or bust, so my normal attitude is that I’m going to watch and enjoy the show. I’m glad we got a playmaker in the first round, I think cam deserves a good receiver. KB was supposed to be it, but where’s he at now?

yeah, I can't watch CF as much as I would like (or any)...I make time for the Panthers. I need the Huddle to keep perspective.

Voted yes. I would have liked to see a RB and iOL, but can't blame Hurney for not reaching when players we liked were snagged prior to our pick. I question not going after Harrison and Reid, but I don't think that means the draft was bad.

      I don't believe this at all.

      His PPG actually did go up a little in Colorado. We will see. I still sort of believe we saw pretty close to the peak of his abilities last year. Not wishing him ill or trashing him in any way. Just tend to believe we did sell high and correctly so.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Well, other teams also had an offseason. I honestly agree with him. Right now I have way more faith in Coker ascending then I do XL. I think it's the TE/WR group dragging us down. Plus he does mention that the list was made with WR's very much valued more than RB's and TE's(I understand the thought process). In that context, we have a very aging AT, two "wait and see" second year players(one leaning bust) and a rookie.  I really think this is a very fair rating, on paper and in the offseason. Quite frankly, aside from the aforementioned and aging AT, this is a bunch of guys still trying to prove themselves.  Then when you go to TE, it's easily a bottom 3-4 unit on paper. That is probably being extremely generous.  RB is where we make our hay. Probably a top 5-10 unit. But....he mentions early in the article that he doesn't value the RB units as much.  So, really, it's the weighting of the skill positions that is what really fugs us.
