Why the Panthers might Draft Herbert

For all those who resort to pisssing and moaning about your opinion being different than someone elses, take a look at where Mayock ranked Mahomes.  Keep in mind that this guy was so well respected that after many offers, he is now a GM in the NFL.  Today, Mahomes would go number 1 without question and at least 3 or more number 1's would be offered for him in hingsight.

So nevermind the Kipers, the Walters and all the other knuckleheads making a living (Kiper had Mahomes going 25th) at predicting.  They can only get you in the county, not even the neighborhood, much less the street when predicting these guys and their worth.

For all we know, we could be talking about Herbert being an all pro in 2 years, or out of the league.  So don't take yourselves SOOOOO seriously, cause I sure don't,  even the actual GMs in the NFL get this stuff wrong

Yep, professional talent evaluators - even really good ones - are wrong quite a bit. There's a never ending litany of variables to try to consider when projecting a prospect to the NFL level and that's why there are busts and steals in every draft class and there always will be.

    • PFF feeds the beast.  So it’s largely popular for that IMO and is embraced by the NFL machine because it helps feed the beast.  Thats why you see the cute stats pop on the Monday Night football screen lol.  Hot takes? Fantasy football? Yeah, it’s good for the NFL machine for lots of reason.  I do think the league embraces them.  Not because they are actually good at doing what they claim. actual analytics folks are critical of PFF.  Because it’s not analytics.  It’s subjective goobly goo ratings by dudes that aren’t really qualified nor even have the info to do real grading.  you got legit NFL players who say they have literally put PFF grades by the coaches grades and they are worlds apart.  Players have laughed at them pretending they can grade certain plays without the underlining info.  NFL coaches have called out there bologna at pressers.   could it be a quick tool to find out some info that has nothing to with their subjective grades? Sure.  There is a lot of data on 32 teams for cheap. But I do not buy the narrative 32 NFL teams think their grades are worth a poo or remotely accurate or meaningful. 
    • Bills D looks like ass
    • I think that win vs Dallas gave them a big boost of confidence.  Thats a team that blew us out the past 2 seasons. Even when Bryce was playing okay late last season they still beat us pretty bad.  Lets see if we slaughter the Jets or go back to playing sloppy uninspired football and go from there.
