Christensen’s grade per the Panthers

I am guessing that means they didn't like any of the OT options in the draft, outside maybe Sewell. 

I do wonder why we chose him as opposed to getting a much more highly regarded OG in the 2nd. Perhaps they didn't have high grades on many OG's either.

I get the feeling they would’ve taken Sam Cosmi if the WFT hadn’t snapped him up a few picks earlier. He score was pretty high on the athleticism chart from what I understand. But that’s JMO.

I actually think it's kind of interesting that they're grading players at more than one position.

I wonder if that's been done in Carolina before.

Of course it has, you know Marty loved his versatile guys. ( although they were only versatile in Marty's head)

I remember seeing a comment that they had Christensen, Cosmi and a couple of others all graded about the same but I don't remember where.

I’m sure I speak for Panthers’ fans everywhere when I say I’m so damn happy we finally have a legitimate front office. The draft and Panthers Confidential video just sealed it for me.

- We were scheduled to pick #52 in the 2nd round, Cosmi went #51 to Washington

- We were on the clock when we traded out with Cleveland and gave them #52

- In the Friday night post 2-3 round draft presser someone asked Fitterer if there was a player that we liked that was taken right before we were going to pick, Scott said NO

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
