I think it's clear they wanted Sewell.  

They had zero interest with fields, thank God. 

They just improved the weakest part of our defense. 

That is a win!

Plugging that gaping hole at CB makes every other position on D more effective than they would otherwise be.  Other than LT this might have been the best pick possible.

TLDR: Surprised, but not upset with the selection.

Mr.Scot I am right there with you.   I think some who don't like this pick, need to sit back and realize we have a chance to address the OL still.

These discussions on offenses and defenses can go all night long in regards to should we have picked an OL to help Darnold or shore up our secondary which was a major need..

Bottom line is we got the BEST corner in this draft and we desperately needed a corner.  Get in there tomorrow and grab some OL help for Sam and suddenly everyone agrees Horn was the right pick and we can move on.

Most of the time I felt that we didn't trade for Darnold to be the back up QB.  Fields may be a stud or he may be a bust same as Darnold with this team. 

The O-line depth in this draft is deep.  We took arguably the best CB in the draft.

I cannot believe that there are so many whining and crying babies on this forum.  None of us have any financial investment into this team other than PSL holders but even those people have zero say in what goes down in the draft.  

I think with Horn we may have a defense that can really compete with anyone in this league.

Defenses win Championships.

You got to be able to a score with those teams too though.  

We had Bradberry.  And he held it down vs those guys as good as anyone could.   

I think the focus should be on the QB and the lines.  Not the DBs and WRs. 

Concern noted

Look...........you control the line of scrimmage on offense you control the game.............you control the game you control the score..................you control the score you win.

What is so hard to learn about this?

The NFL is full of special ed front office staff and this organization is loaded with them.

The GM says we draft the best athletes and fit them into our system?

the Panther Oline is the problem..............period.

See you at 6-11 next year........good luck with all the talent you can't win games with.

We got the top rated CB. 

 

We passed on the 3rd or 4th best QB.

 

We passed on lots of good talent. What does that matter?

 

We got the best player at his position. A position of great need in this passing league. We were not going to get that return on any other position. 

He's considered the second best at his position just fyi.

Not really. Many outlets had him as the top corner. Surtain had the better and more recognizable name, thats all. 

Many considered Surtain a safer pick and have said he was more polished because of the team he played for. Me personally I just didn't like his coverage of Smith. When faced with equal talent he lost the battle a good bit. Doesn't really matter though our pick is our pick.

      Some Thoughts on Legette based upon an ex-scout's ranking him WR1 in the draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      No, he has a long way to go to be that--I think he is probably referring to his ceiling--I think Legette has more room to grow from where he is that those more polished WRs.  When you look at his potential, it presents an argument that is not so one sided.  Of those three, only Odunze had a higher RAS score 9.92.  XL had a 9.90.  Malik Nabors had a 9.67.  Harrison Jr.  did not have one.  I am not sure that Legette has not overcome more obstacles to be where he is, and if you consider his adversity, his story might be more incredible, even though he is only a second tier rookie right nowm with Mitchell, Thomas, Pearsall, and maybe McConkey.  I am going from memory-but you have to think of things as a kid-when he was 16, his mother died of breast cancer.  When he entered S Carolina, his father died.  They had some issues and QB problems and the OL was terrible in Columbia---the others you mentioned?  None of that family drama, and they played at Washington, Ohio State, and LSU.  Huge difference.  I am proud of him as a man--when all his chips were on the table--when he had no more chances, he broke through and became a first round draft pick.  A school with a losing record, mediocre QB, and bad OL.  Mentally, he was struggling through the losses of both parents.  Amazing story.  Is he as good as those three who played at top universities?  Not yet.
