Said it before, but it speaks well of us that Dodds agreed to interview.

He declined to interview with the Browns last year because he didn't feel like he was ready. He added that you generally only get one chance to do something like this and if he was gonna do it, he absolutely wanted to hit it out of the park.

I don’t know anything but the Colts draft in recent years have been very average to bad, other than hitting on Nelson and Leonard. 

Pittman Jr, Taylor and Blackmon were all starters and played well from this year’s draft. They were drafted in the 2nd/3rd. They didn’t have a first or maybe they traded down, not sure.

They also had a few more players than Leonard and Nelson in 2018. Hines was a 4th rounder and he’s got over 2100 yards in 3 years. Braden Smith has started 3 years at T.

Their 2019 draft was meh, just role players but both 2018 and 2020 drafts got at least 3 solid starters and some role players. Those are good drafts. Coming away with 2 good starting OL, a solid WR, a solid duo of RBs, a stud LB, a starting safety and a bunch of backups is a nice haul in 2 drafts.

Traded their 2020 1st for Deforrest Buckner. I’d call that a win as well.

He was also a major influence in Seatle during 2007-2016 seasons, leading to 2 superbowls and helped draft wilson and the legion of boom.

Paris Campbell has some talent also, though injuries have derailed the start of his career. I wouldn't count him out just yet!

      Panthers decision to pass on Walker

      By MHS831 · Posted

      there seems to be a change or two in his personnel preferences.  For example, the safeties.  Another example:  the smallish NTs are out and 330 is back!

      Rookie minicamp

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.
