Round 3(a) - Carolina Panthers Select BYU OT Brady Christensen

I watched a lot of his tape last night--he catches instead of attacks a lot.  Maybe they can fix it.  He needs to start within a year, and we all know that would give him 6-7 years as an effective OL.  Yes, moving inside is possible.  I still hope we draft Forsythe, Hudson, or maybe even Smith from ECU.  Ball is another idea.  Doyle for Mof Ohio--we still have options.

Christensen is not going to be a world beater, but I am not confident that LT is fixed.

Hudson is unathletic AF if i remember correctly.

Doyle or Forsythe would be the best options.

I saw Brady play in HS.  A rare athlete who excelled in Baseball, Basketball, and Football. I saw him steal a ball in HS, beat gaurds down the floor and dunk it so hard the basket shook for 30 seconds.  He is an athlete, who can protect Sam.  Great work ethic, team first, kind of man. He will love Charlotte, and they will love him. He is a first team All-American and a steal in the third round.

I also wouldn't rule out Okung coming back.

The issue with Okung is how many game we would get out of him if we do bring him back.  When he's on the field, he's fine.  But he has played 13 games over the last two seasons.  Unfortunately, he forces us to have depth whether we want it or not.

And for whatever reason, this team does not seem to want depth at LT.  I sometimes wonder if their solution is to just not have a LT.

They have just made poor choices at LT. But I think if Sewell had been there at 8, he’d have been the pick.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
