I remember how hard you were pimping that we liked him in the pre draft threads and how much most of us who watched the combine couldn’t stand him. We were so hoping you had bad info. We had a 2nd and two 3rds in a great interior OL draft and came away with nothing. Add in having a 2nd and 3rds in the prior draft and we got Donte.

I mean pre-Rhule, Marty had 6 day 2 picks and all we have to show for it is an average CB. There’s half the talent drain on the team right there. SMH. Why was he kept?

It was way before the combine that it was obvious he was getting by on rep and not actual solid play. Like two years. But what do we know. We are negative and have some sort of agenda. Right now it seems like we are predicting the Panthers future at an alarmingly high rate.

Yep, the meat of most rosters is built on mid-round picks. The few Hurney supporters that remain are somehow still blinded by his 1st round success. But GMing isn't about 1st round picks. Ultimately, the job of a GM is to build a winning roster and a team built to compete year in and year out. Making 1st round picks is just a small part of the overall picture. Hurney has utterly failed at the overall job of a GM his entire career.

You mean around a 22% chance of a playoff berth isn’t enough for y’all. Cmon now. That’s good isn’t it.

Almost like we have seen the movie before?

It isn't related to concussions.

Weaknesses
  • Needs to work on core power and upper body development
  • Lacks force and power in down block
  • Too many inefficiencies in movements as run blocker
  • Initial hand strike as run blocker lacks tempo and pace
  • Waist bend with nose past toes at point of attack
  • Leaves feet behind after contact
  • Hand strength is very average
  • Races to predetermined set points
  • Impatient and chases rushers rather than waiting back
  • Gets bounced back into pocket by early rush charge
  • Below-average body control in recovery movements

This is almost an exhaustive list of everything a LT is not supposed to do or be....how do you draft him? 

Marty tried to trade back into round 1 for him.

Yikes.

To be fair to Frankenstein's monster, he got a brain transplant. And could still sing and dance....

 

I know you're joking but wait a minute...... brain transplant..... hold on I need to call the Panthers team doctor right away. I've got an idea for Little!

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
