To add to my reply…. I’m not the biggest fan of Thib, but if it’s between him or any QB because the top 3 OT are gone, I wouldn’t mind him or the safety from ND. 

Sure, I’d rather go offense but this team isn’t 1 or two drafts away. Grab the top talent on the board, fire Rhule next year, and start an actual re-build next year allowing your new coach and staff pick their QB. 

Thats how I think the draft plays out, Thib could be the clear BPA and I already know the topics on page one of the main board will be nothing but bitachin.

If we're not going to get a starting LT, and can't trade down, then I'm totally on board with Hamilton. Pairing him with Chinn would be huge. 

I can not support drafting a safety at 6 overall, that is least valued spot on the 22 man field(minus ST). Much rather have 2nd best DE/LT over the best Safety. Tho I will say this- Id prfer him over any QB in this best pool..... Id even say that last year given Mr. Pro bowler jones.

I just feel like Thidobeaux is a bust waiting to happen. I've got no real justification to back that up; just a gut feeling.

I think he has some elite skills, but if you went in a time machine 5 years from now and told me he was a bust, it wouldn’t shock me. The thought of Thib, Burns, Brown, and Reddick really excites me. I do feel Thibs is a good fit here as well. Thibs is on the smaller size so that worries me, but I was worried about Burns for the same reason.

I think he has elite talent with virtually nonexistent skills. He's getting by on sheer raw physical ability. He's going to have to improve technically in a big way at the NFL level. Total boom/bust pick IMO. I'd bet on bust.

Good analogy and spot on. No way I am taking a chance on this guy. We are at pick 6 and I can easily name more than 6 guys I would draft over him, and that doesn't even include the trade down option.

You’re right, that’s what I meant. Elite talent, not skills.

At the Combine, in front of all the coaches & execs and media,  he took the microphone and talked extensively about building his "brand". 

He just released some type of cryptocurrency ??         Thibodeaux's cryptocurrency

Was quoted as saying 

"there's nothing (a coach) can tell me that I don't already know"

which shows he may not be very coachable or easy to work with.  

Has had to defend his love of football numerous times to the media.   Which makes me think "where there's smoke, there's fire . . ."

 

Thidobeaux just seems like he wants to be the next Kardashian.  So I have to wonder about his focus and commitment to the NFL.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
