Here is a great article pertaining to Daviyon Nixon's past,present and probable future.

Daviyon Nixon 2021 NFL Draft Profile

This has me believing that he will be the steal of the draft.  How he slipped with that much Big 10 action is beyond me but We'll take it.

THey had him standing some--which is weird--moved him around the DL a bit---maybe that is it?  He had some trouble and was suspended back in 2019--drugs, I think?  going from memory, so verify.

It wasn’t drugs. There was some rumors of a dorm room incident that took him completely off some teams boards. I read some Iowa boards and apparently that coach defended him and not the others who were involved. Apparently that coach is no BS. So I think it was an incident where he was just there. But that’s just speculating. This was early in his career. I have no idea what the incident was. This is the only thing I can think of that would make him fall this far.

When we drafted KK and Star, they had that low-key demeanor. I did not get the feeling that they loved the game, and I really did not get the feeling that they were happy to be here.  I think Star even said something like, "This is where I am going to be for four or five years...."  It seemed a bit odd.

This guy has love for the game written all over him.  His demeaner reminds me of Gerald McCoy as a rookie a bit. I think he will become a leader.

I am pumped, and glad it was not drugs/weed, because that labels you.

That video is crazy underrated. For a DT to Juke two players and run about 30-40yds for a TD on a pass intended to the flats.

That's insane for the big man. 

I replayed that one at least a dozen times the first time I saw it. Flat out amazing seeing that big guy run like that.

You know what... Im convinced. This kid is different. 

 

That kid does not move like a normal 313 pound man. He's going to be a nightmare for opposing teams if he plays like this on the NFL level. He could actually end up making things easier for Derrick Brown (or all of our d-lineman for that matter) . If he becomes the next Warren Sapp or John Randle he'll start drawing more of the double teams and free things up for the other guys.

      Albert Breer talks about Dave Canales

      By Waldo · Posted

      Johnson is very smart IMO. He will get paid either way but avoiding a terrible spot can save your career too. He looks to be working the system and good for him. I always thought hiring interviews go both ways and have been disappointed watching people not realize this. He handled DC roughly but it was also funny because he did see them as what they are which is a new ownership group, even with Petters, he would be likely be destined for failure there while they figure out the normal learning curve of the NFL.  It's not lying it's just 'your great but I can't say what your not because that is taboo'. Sometimes lies are expected if the truth isn't what they want.  I agree generally. Ron was doing great work as a DC where he put in 6 years as DC at 2 teams vs Canales 1 year as OC before becoming a HC. Ron is such a known quantity by now, he earned his 2nd shot as a HC and it went as expected given his proclivities. Offense is just safer in this NFL vs Defense so any one that can score will get a look. Ryans is a beast but how do you think he fairs without Slowick? Which HCs were in the SB? Offensive guys. It's a thing and makes laughing about TB, Atlanta and NO all having beatable defensive coaches the Panthers still can't beat LOL. It's a dump. If your building a career the Panthers are a long shot. If you are taking a shot, getting paid and/or ready to grow from this failure then this is a great option. I think the jobs are extremely valuable on many levels but there is always a turd in the punchbowl with Tepper. Hurney, Rhule, Friterer, now Caldwell and maybe Morgan. Tepper always leaves some dookie around to contaminate the next batch...they literally help him fug up the next time. It's Tepper's MO, spend lots of money and lean on past failures into new failures. There has not been a truly fresh start under Tepper yet which explains why he keeps failing.

      What Carolina Panthers can learn from Justin Jefferson contract

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      I would talk poo about their qb room but I'd rather have Darnold and JJ competing for our QB spot than giving BY free reign with no pressure
