*sighs* I wanted this dude to be a Panther so bad...

We really could have had an OL this season with Slater-WhoGivesAfug-Humphrey-Smith-Moton

But we got an injury prone WR who Rhule wants to reteach how to walk, and a long snapper who got IR'd in preseason because they didn't want to cut him out of embarrassment. Good investments

Some of you say that, and indeed it may have been true for some teams, but many teams obviously had an opposite opinion. Indeed, his tape was pretty stellar, and he handled pass rushers--including the premier pass rusher in Chase Young--like a grown man. Slater's body of work was simply great and more than justified a top pick for a team in need for an offensive lineman. That's just the fact of the matter.

Rashawn Slater's tape told a story, and guys like Matt Rhule were just too thickheaded to listen.

Which really sucks because to be successful at Temple youd think the coach has to be an outside the box thinker.

You're absolutely right, and I don't know what to think about it. I'm probably going to have to sit down and reflect about the seeming disconnect.

Perhaps people are just right about Rhule's "success" in college being overblown.

Lol. Imagine if we drafted Slater. We could’ve drafted the stud C from Iowa this draft. Fix OG via FA and potentially hav a top 5 oline.

Tb100, I was still OK with the TMJ pick until Brady was fired. The angle was that he'd be familiar with concepts and able to implement into the offense despite recovering from injuries. But now what?

Going back I'd gladly take Humphrey instead.

Yeah and with the Robby Anderson extension? Like TMJ should have been ready to be the number 2 beside DJ Moore next year. All these new contracts that no one will ever trade for lol. Sam/CMC/Shaq/Robby is like 1/3 of our cap unless they get funky w some numbers

Jaycees a stud too

Best thing that could happen to Slater is him NOT being picked by the panthers to be misused by the paint chip eating moron in charge.  Seriously, take a moment and realize that IF we had taken Slater (a 2nd team all pro LT as a rookie)...he would have been playing GUARD for us.  Legitimately let that sink in, that is just how poor of a talent evaluator Rhule is...
