Chris Simms “no way the panthers draft Lance at 8”

[MHS831]

If this is true....wait for it.......Mond could be drafted before Lance......Discuss.,

[MHS831]

Here is the line of questioning we should all ask ourselves.

Is Simms right?  (No? advance to next question)

are you right?  (No?  advance to next question)

Could the answer be that nobody is right?

 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.

Another reason to pass on Lance.

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.

So pass on Mahomes?

I wasn't aware he is in this draft.  Lance is no Mahomes. Nice try though.

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.

So run then.

I dont disagree with you, but other speedy QBs have elected to not run the 40 in recent years.

Did they play at the D1-AA level?

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.
