I believe some of the smokescreen articles. Dillard has shorter arms than Jonah but Jonah gets the short arms label? I have seen Jonah mocked 3-5 plenty of time just like the teens etc. 

i believe there are teams that put that stuff out there so some shmuck believes it and drafts that guy instead of THE guy,.. the guy as in the better one drops to said team.

That guy goes on to bust,.. like many thought. There’s a lot of articles on draft shananigans

These weren't smokescreen or hype articles, they were senior bowl reports.  I was just pointing out that by most reports he had a good senior bowl week.

He is not worthy of the 16 pick LMAO. He won't be the pick only way he is pick is if we trade back to tail end of first.

I'd bet the farm he doesn't make it past us, if he even gets to us in the first place.

As much as I would probably like to believe this is true for the laughs..... you’re just kidding aren’t you? If you show where he actually says that, I might pass out laughing. 

He said it in a radio interview some years ago. It was during his first stint as Panthers GM. I'm thinking maybe five years in or so.  I was on a long drive when I caught it.

He talked about reading them and finding them interesting. Mind you, that doesn't necessarily mean he gives them credence. Just that he likes them.

Look at it this way: As outside sources go, it's better than a cab driver or a homeless guy.

Pretty much all NFL teams do this, they check draft sites, magazines, and draft shows to try and get a general feel of where players may go.

      All three were horrendous though.  A Stroud sucks too the pain of the Bryce trade is watching a home town kid go to the Patriots and in all likelihood make a SB appearance in his second year....

      Could Morgan be eyeing Trey Hendrickson

      By Jackson113.2 · Posted

      Carolina Panthers projected to take massive swing for Trey Hendrickson in free agency And one ESPN analyst believes the Panthers have a clear path to one blockbuster free-agent signing that would shake the NFL to its foundations. Aaron Schatz thought the Panthers make a ton of sense for edge rusher Trey Hendrickson, whose time with the Cincinnati Bengals looks up. This isn't the sort of signing Morgan typically goes for, but Carolina is ready to win now. That changes the landscape considerably. Acquiring Hendrickson won't be cheap. The NFL's sack leader in 2023 and 2024 should be in high demand on the open market, and the Bengals will likely allow him to explore other employment opportunities. It would be an all-in move from Morgan, but the rewards might be substantial as the Panthers look to get over the hump. Hendrickson is an elite pass-rusher. His relentless motor, exceptional technique, and violent hands make him a legitimate force that very few around the league can match. He may be 31 years old now, but there is nothing to suggest that he cannot keep performing well at the tail-end of his playing journey. According to Spotrac, Hendrickson is expected to command an annual salary of $25.44 million on a two-year, $50.89 million deal. The Panthers would have to move some money around to make it work, but now is the time to strike after winning the NFC South and making the playoffs in 2025.
