Per Matt Miller, the Carolina Panthers are the most improved team exiting the draft...

The fug out of here with that poo . I'm just saying I don't have much faith in oft injured free agent olineman (who have a history of poor performance on previous teams they were on) we've been bringing in for quite a while now . If they actually stay healthy and play lights out of course that's a good thing. 

Don't be triggered man.  Just saying don't be so quick to pigeon hole and label two players you know nothing about, and then use them as a barometer on whether the Oline is trash or not when you've never even seen them in our system. Most Olineman are injured at some point in their career and they come back and play just fine.  Gross was injured.  Moton was injured.  Kalil was injured.  Not all Olineman who have had injuries (which is all of them) are damaged goods man.

Hard to stay on topic in a thread SCP made a cameo in but I would say that if a long snapper can be voted in by fans at a pro bowl position he can most definitely be counted as a "starter" when it comes to draft results.

It's so interesting how it works here. In 2010 the Panthers draft was lauded as well.

It's odd seeing people that made fun of Kiper for years for pushing Clausen on this team now do a 180 and post a video of Kiper just loving the Sam Darnold trade.

How many times here have I read "good, if the 'experts' don't agree I know we did well'. This place will turn any, absolutely any reaction into a positive spin. Meanwhile the team has never won a Super Bowl, and even with one of the weakest schedules in recent memory people are betting on 8-9 wins.

Sam will do better, if for Brady scheming the one read he stares down open every play, but he's not going to turn into a franchise guy.

Then their are people who sign up with alt usernames to push the negative just to rain on the parade of others. Get a life.

Guy I used to work with would tell girls he met in a bar that he was the Panthers backup punter.

I can't remember his name anymore.  That wasn't the Jon Beason lawsuit guy was it?

2 girls in NY approached my friend and me and asked me (based on my jacket) what I position I played on the football team. I replied, "Tight End." The other girl asked my buddy, who did not play football, what position he played.  He said, "Oh, I am am one of the loose ends."

He should have said, "wide receiver " 🤣🤣

I was in a college fraternity with that jackbag (he was kicked out for constantly starting fights, creeping girls, and almost burning down our fraternity house in his drunken douche-baggery) involved with the Jon Beason lawsuit... He got everything that had been coming to him for years...

I know he carried around a laminated card around in his wallet to impress woman claiming he was on the Panthers practice squad (this was in the early 2000's when it would have been much harder to verify that information for fringe practice squad players... I don't know what position he claimed but I doubt it was punter... he was 6'4", 240ish, and ripped so he could pass for a player for someone naive...

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
