Panthers will draft Justin Herbert

I think Panthers will not wait until next year to draft the QB of the future, but will do that this year by drafting Herbert and let him learn behind Bridgewater for a year (or two).  The rest of the draft picks will be used for Defense.  

Marty has shown a lot of interest in Herbert.   Now he may be posturing for potential trade down opportunities to acquire more picks but I think the more likely scenario is that he gets drafted by the Panthers.

How would you feel about that if it happens?

In all honesty, I don’t follow CFB that closely and don’t know how I feel about this. If he looks like a sure-fire franchise QB (or as close as possible), then I hope the Panthers do it. We have seen this team with a true franchise QB in Cam and without one in a bunch of others, and know for sure that the Panthers are doomed in the latter case.

Just now, Mr. Scot said:

I'll grant it's possible.

I've seen both positive and negative projections regarding his NFL career. Me? I'm undecided.

Based on his physical skills? Yeah.

Based on what he was able to actually show in that Oregon offense? Ugh.

If we draft him then I'll really be hoping that offense was holding him back and he's capable of a lot more than he was able to show.

The good thing about our current situation is that I think he's a guy who probably needs to sit and learn for a year if not two. I don't think it'll be pretty if he has to start from day one.

I think it would require him somehow dodging the picks that come before us. I think he'll go well before then, but once Burrows and Tua are gone, perhaps teams will take a breath.

If he's sitting there at 7 when we pick, I'm not going to complain if we run to the podium with the pick. I also won't be surprised if someone offers us a ton of picks in trade for it.

Still, I think we're getting Brown at 7.

Cindy, Miami, and the Chargers are all set to draft a QB and develop them. I see no way Burrow or Tua reaches us, and unless the Chargers surprise everyone and go Love over Herbert, he will not be available at #7 which would be fine with me because Simmons or Okudah, or Brown would be a great pick.

      Canales is holding us back

      I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme

      You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
