 Cannt run the offense??? RPO??? I now question if he truly watched the panthers or lance at all. CHris knows more than I, but that doesnt mean hes never wrong about a player. Chris isnt aware that ND runs a pro system, unless most of college teams....and not a good a fit for the panthers LSU/Saints system??? Chris found crack during convid.

Yeah, that was posted earlier too. So why do you think he isn't running?

If he went out there and ran like the wind it would definitely help him.

And if he doesn’t then people will use it against him. There isn’t a reason for him to run it. How many times in a NFL game will a QB run in a straight line? Unless you know you’re like a 4.4 guy, if I’m a QB I’m not running it.

Gotta get out of this type of thinking. A QB doesn’t need to start week 1. 

Odd, I thought you had to start a QB in every game.  You take him in the top 10 he starts.  If he is not going to be ready in his first year you don't take him in the first period.

Running is a big part of his game and there are serious questions about his level of competition. If he could run fast it would definitely help him. My point is that I don't think he can.

You think Lamar Jackson lasts until #32 if he had gone out there and ran sub-4.4 like he's probably capable? Now I get why he chose not to run. Some teams were talking possible position change with him and he was adamant about staying at QB. But no one is talking position change with Lance.

He has been clocked at 20 mph during live games a couple of times. Level of competition does not affect his on field speed.

The only reason I can think for NOT running is a team gave him/agent a guarantee selection.... got to be early too. Part request too.

21+ MPH in pads, thats legit NFL speed no matter the position. Id still run and its still sus about him not trying to improve his draft stock aka millions. He could have gotten injured while working out too, just adds to the mystery.

      Ex-Panthers great Steve Smith sued under 'homewrecker law' for alleged affair.

      By NAS · Posted

      Smitty is a legendary footballer player but this has really damaged his reputation as a person. You don’t cheat on a woman who has been with you through everything and gave you children and especially not with another man’s wife. He doesn’t even have any remorse about it, acting like nothing happened.

      The Athletic's "Undrafted Player to Watch"

      By Panthers Rhule · Posted

      That's a big ass center! Is there any center in the NFL that weighs 320 lbs? Also, we drafted a center last season. Not sure this guy is a center even if he took reps at the senior bowl. Looks like a guard to me unless his build is better suited to a lesser weight. In a zone scheme centers need to be able to move quickly.

      The majority of NFL draft picks don't play all too many snaps lined up directly across from another NFL player, and I don't think many people really realize this. Unless you play a game against one of the 2-4 schools that are putting half their lineup into the NFL each season, most teams who have multiple draft picks, MIGHT only have 2-4 draft picks in any given season. Some skill positions get around 30 players drafted each year, other positions are in the teens to low 20's.  With at least a handful of them coming from non power conference schools too.  So the odds for any WR or CB to get too many games lined up directly against another future draft pick is pretty low. The better odds are that they get lined up against a future NFL player, i.e. a junior or senior WR getting lined up against a freshman or sophomore DB who will get drafted in a couple of years. Then if you take it one step further and look for players who actually play in the NFL and make a difference.   You're basically looking at players drafted in the first 3 rounds of the draft, so a little less than 100 players a year, spread out across all the positions and conferences (which in today's massive conferences, teams have even lower odds of player the teams with more NFL players than ever before).
