To be fair if the Panthers multi million dollar coaching staff needs my help in evaluating Will Grier, I gotta tell ya fellas, we’re in worse shape than we thought.

I know. This "we" stuff, in this case means fans. The people inside that building have seen this guy daily for quite a while. He is in all the meetings.

Scott Turner was supposed to be a huge advocate for taking him. Seems like if he was showing he was ready, they would put him in. Doesn't seem to me there is a lot to gain by putting him in if he isn't ready.

To be fair, it's not like there's a lot to lose either.

While I know he's may  not be ready to lead the team to a win, I'm more interested in seeing his instincts in full game speed. Does he step into the pocket well? How does he move through progressions? Does he feel ghosts? Does he throw away instead of hanging on too long? Practice is one thing, but game day can give a lot of information we could use, especially headed into such a pivotal offseason.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
