Panthers should use a 4th

Would that be enough?  He had a 2019 1st Round Grade per the video and the Panthers would be grouped with the playoff teams in the lottery, meaning if the Cowboys or Bucs for example bid a 4th, they’d get him.

I don't think we ever do anything in the supplemental draft. Have we ever?

No, risk usually doesn’t equal reward since the player inevitably has at least some baggage.

But never has a 6’3 DB with big upside from Charlotte entered to my knowledge.

usually if there is off field concerns, you don't want the player coming back to the town where they may have began.  Same reason Honey badger didn't want to go home to New Orleans, didn't want to run with the boys he used to.

I don't know if that situation applies here, and I'd love to have him, but I'm 100% sure we'll roll with Bradberry and Jackson.

Academic ineligibility isn’t a great sign, but hardly a capital offense.  Too bad he didn’t go to UNC and take AFAM.  

Bottom line is a 6’3 DB, even as a project, in this division IS a risk worth taking.  The question is how high of a risk.

wasn't there something else off the field beyond academic ineligibility?

A pot charge in 2016.  Meh.  Maybe a 4th is appropriate, I dunno, but I do wonder if it’s enough given his upside and the other teams higher in the bid/lottery order.

    • The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at. 
    • If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep
    • I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
