Don't Open unless you want to be even more upset at this draft

Lemme just state first, that I am fine with the draft. I'm not overjoyed, but I'm cool. I wanted a bit more Safety help (not a converted CB) and obviously more help on the O-line. But when I looked at this - it made me sick to my stomach.

Remember when Gettleman traded the 4th round pick to Cleveland for Andy Lee??

yeah, Andy Lee, the punter who is no longer on the team... Well that was pick #123 overall and Cleveland took TE Durham Smythe, Notre Dame. Meh, no big deal, I like the potential of Ian Thomas and think he could be the best pick of this draft - even more than DJ Moore. Anyways.. back to the point..
Well right after Cleveland took their TE the #124th pick was by the Chiefs and who did they grab?
They grabbed FS Armani Watts from Texas A&M.

Now, Gaulden sounds really, really, truly smart and a student of the game - I was blown away by his interview here the other day. He will probably be decent at either Safety position. But do you realize we had shots at Justin Reid at the END of the 2nd Rd, Harrison at the END of the 3rd Rd AND we woulda had a shot at Armani Watts in the 4th!? <----- All 3 of those would have been bonafide steals!!!

 

::Deep breath:: .........but I'm fine, im fine.. my last vent before I welcome everyone with open arms to the Panthers org.
That is all.

32 teams seemed to rate all of these guys substantially lower than some Huddlers did. 

Marty went for versatility, toughness, traits and fit. I can live with that. And it's not like there wasn't some level of production out of Gaulden, so who is to say at this point which guy will make more of an impact?

I have made 1 comment and 1 thread simply questioning this draft thru the entire weekend. sh!t - even @Jeremy Igo has voiced his dislike 10x more for these picks than I have. I know he's an edgelord, but I wouldn't call him useless...

if the Huddle is not a place where you come to complain - then I don't even know why this place exists...

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
