As I repeatedly said - I never understood the 'generational' athlete hype that surrounded him.

He doesn't have elite length for an OT. He also hadn't played for a year at that point.

He's talented, but raw as hell - he's one to judge two years from now. I could see him ending up at OG when it's all said and done.

He changed positions and hasn’t played in basically 2 years. 

Rum has it figured out. I thought Sewell was going to be there at 8, that was after all the hype died down.....honestly my hype died also after it was reveled about his 33' arms. I still want him, cause we still need a LT. I say if he was the true one in 10 year LT, hed be playing LT. What I heard is the loins wanted Waddle, but phins took him one before. They already invested the #3 overll pick on a CB the year before and traded for Goff. Sewell was the best remaining player, cause no DLmen was near his talent. Maybe the panthers should have offered a 4th ot something to flip picks. The draft is wild and Im just freesylting maining here.

Truth is the Lions saw the value and couldn't let him slip any further, on the flip side he was a risk in that situation because he missed an entire year and is being asked to play every position except the one he knows. Will he bust? Idk, but to not expect him to struggle given the situation is asinine.

Damn.  I'm usually proud of my eye for talent, and to be fair, I didnt watch a ton of stuff on him prior to the draft, but I felt certain he was the safest pick out there.  His stats on not giving up a sack were just incredible...  this is surprising.

Youre better than this rush to judgement..... the BARE minuim should to give him until the start of his 2nd full off-season. 

The huddle has gone mad with the PS judgements.... sad turn of events.

I just meant in terms of him struggling early.  It obviously is not the final word on his career, I expect he'll still be good.  Just saying I'm surprised that 1) they switched him to RT, and 2) that he is struggling at all.  Just didn't expect it, but he's got plenty of time.

I dont look to much into this left and right thing. If you are an elite tackle you can play both. 

If that were true more guys would be able to do this but its usually a drop-off in performance to move anyone out of their normal position. Also, he is a rookie who didn't play the year before. There is definitely going to be an adjustment period.

      I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
