Albright: Panthers circling on Pickett

Recommended Posts

Signs are pointing to Pickett.  Temple and/or Baylor connection?  Check.  Poor measurables that will be ignored by the same staff that hates short arms?  Check.  One year wonder?  Check.  Plus, the Pitt/Tepper connection to add on top of everything, not to mention all the rumors about our interest in the guy. 
 

Where there’s smoke there’s fire, and unfortunately it smells like a burning pickett fence.  If he’s the pick all we can do is support the guy but damn, it’d be pretty demoralizing.  OL or bust

And Burrow got it done in 2 seasons with better yards per attempt. Pickett had 4 starting years and was pretty good in his 5th senior year after finding out he was gonna go in the 5th round if he declared for last years draft. I don't really understand why people make the Burrow comparison

Basically the one year turnaround thing. Burrow wasn't poo until he had that.

Someone in New York is trying to drum up interest so they can flip five or we’re  drumming up interest so someone starts falling in love with him to trade with us.

If we stay at 6 I don’t see how we take a quarterback, especially if it’s BPA, which it should be given the state of our team. Pickett is the best QB in this draft but he’s probably the 25th best prospect.

Ehhh, I just think Rhule is incredibly bad at keeping secrets. When this comes from multiple angles (Myself, Albright, Florio) it becomes kind of hard to ignore. Smokescreens usually fall under less reputable people (referring to Flores and Albright, not me). There is also a history of it being obvious when they are going to take someone, Derrick Brown being the obvious. 

I do not we would trade down and take Pickett, they would just take him at 6.

Is Willis who she wants us to pick or who she thinks we will pick? (as of right now, still a long way to go)

It’s fluid, it could change at any moment. I’m just saying she said on Twitter, her sources are saying we like Pickett, same thing Albright is hearing. 

I have never said we are taking Willis. Willis is who I would like them to take. He is my QB1.

She is on this board saying willis.  She was saying Jones this time last year so I wouldnt take too much stock in her "sources"

Last year was especially weird since a lot of draft gurus were stating how much we coveted Jaycee Horn.

Verge was completely off.

At this point, if he’s the pick, then i’ll be excited to see his development and hope for the best. I’m not gonna go around knocking this possibility. 

I remember a couple years ago there were rumors of us being interested in Justin Herbert and so many in here were trashing him and the possibility of us taking him. 

 

We all wish we had him right about now lol. 

True, but I honestly trusted Hurney at scouting compared to this front office.

Other than Will Grier he wasn't bad at finding quarterbacks.

@Verge who's taking Howell? I know the Steelers have been all over him, anyone else? 

I just need to start mentally preparing myself for the transition.

Gosh I have heard such varied things on Howell. I have heard 3rd round and I have heard middle of the 1st. I think your Steelers connection is correct. I think Howell will ultimately go in round 1, maybe much higher than where he is being mocked now.

Ehhh I did think we liked Mac Jones but idk about "completely off". This was my final say on the board and on twitter. Last time I will post this, promise lol.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
