I watched him for 2 years as a season ticket holder at Mississippi State. He made mistakes at Mich State and  grew up like most do. So he was not a combine wonder and was top 5 in the SEC for 2 straight years in sacks and tackles for loss with zero red flags. He met our needs much more than Burns. 

Sweat is not an Olb that can play De some. Which is what Rivera was looking for. Burns is that player, he's perfect fit at 3-4 olb who can play some end.

Yeah okay.. I knew Burns mom back in the days and she got bit by a radioactive spider when she was pregnant with him.. So I knew way back than he was going to be great..haha

Lol. Look, I'll get over it but I liked Sweat better. I want Burns to be defensive rookie of the year. We just have too many needs and too few selections. On to day 2

Was scared of his frame and the FSU DE thing, but am super excited for his potential.  I've got a feeling thus FSU DE is gonna be different.  

Also, fun fact, did you know his brother is former Panther Stanley McClover?

His brother was sporting Panther Blue and the happiest guy in Nashville tonight. Lol his interview was fantastic.

Some of you must be pretty young...Before the Brown think FSU produced plenty of top teir defensive ends... 

Kamerion Wimbley DE Cleveland Browns 1st (13)
Andre Wadsworth DL Arizona Cardinals 1st (3)
Peter Boulware DE Baltimore Ravens

1st (4)

Derrick Alexander DE Minnesota Vikings 1st (11)

 

Jamal Reynolds DE Green Bay Packers 1st (10)
Darnell Dockett DT Arizona Cardinals 3rd (64)

Nope.  I'm in my mid 30s and can't remember the last one that was worth their pick.  Their most recent DE draftee list is atrocious.  Best one in the last 25 years was probably Boulware, who actually was an OLB in the pros.  But, I'm not gonna worry about it...  I think Burns is gonna be legit.

      Gameday Thread Steelers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do

      I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.

      It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that.
