Random, Outdated, and Not Draft-Related: ICYMI, DeAngelo Williams is a huge a-hole

So, I randomly came across this video from 2017 that I had never seen before of DeAngelo Williams completely ripping into Kyle Brandt and Pete Schraeger of NFLN.  If you've ever watched their show, it's often goofy, sometimes corny, but always light-hearted...  except for this episode.  A conversation about an upcoming Pats-Steelers (who he was no longer even playing for) game took a left turn when DeAngelo ripped into the aforementioned for not playing pro football, so their opinion was worthless.  It came off even more arrogant, because Brandt actually played football at Princeton.  This was extremely tense and awkward.  It's just crazy to see how fan-friendly DeAngelo seemed to be early in his career, in contrast to where he ended up reputation-wise.  Words don't do this justice.  It was rough.

Yeah the years leading up to 'double trouble' and until he left the team I really liked how he presented himself. Then something changed and it seemed like he got very bitter... 

Probably all the headshots he took.

His mother passed and it changed him.

Sad but it’s clear.  He didn’t take it well.

Exactly it. When a mother fuger laughs at his own poo constantly, and it's not funny and cringe worthy, it just looks like a total internet troll. What a tool man.

People saying he changed but maybe he was like that the whole time....

Idk, I never had personal interactions with him, but was under the impression that prior to his mother passing, he was very friendly and involved with fans and such...  it seemed he became more introverted, bitter, and standoffish after his mother passed.

I'm honestly not sure he actually "changed" at any point.

I think it's more that his early "nice guy" image was a carefully crafted illusion by some of his people.

I've thought this was possible as well, but he did do a lot of fan-centered events during the peak Double Trouble days and from every one here who interacted with him seemed like they genuinely enjoyed it and found him personable...  and he seemed very accessible and engaged a lot with fans on twitter in a friendly manner...  that's an awful lot of acting to keep up with for that many years, but idk...  it's possible.  I just never heard anything bad about him as a person until after things changed with his mother.

      Known Prospect Meetings with Panthers

      Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds.

      Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
