Maybe I was wrong about KENNY PICKETT after reading these evaluations.

Not a starter for 3 years  at Ohio state played in 10 games 3 years non as the starter..... "Transferred " to LSU 1st years as a true starter 16td 5ints + 7 rushing TDs in 13 games (better then 4 years of Pickett) then the blow up 67 td season...

Not the same as being the true starter for 4 years and being bad...

Also let's not look past the point you are putting your Hope's on 1 situation where a 1 year wonder at QB worked out..

If that is the strategy then let's draft a 6th round QB and hope he is Brady ..

Yes, not a 4 year starter. You do realize that's worse, right? Couldn't win the job for most of their time.

Fhules Gold. One good year out of five in the NFL gets folks fired.

The argument against Pickett is he lacks consistency. Had he had two or three great years I could see all the hubub but he's never even topped 67%completion in five year career. That inconsistency won't cut it in the NFL and a dumb bottom feeding franchise will fall for the one year wonder.

I think it's funny that the best reason anyone seems to have for not drafting Pickett is that he didn't dominate the ACC every year he played. At least critique his last season as that's the only one which matters. I guess Drew Brees sucked because his first years in the NFL he wasn't that good. Tom Brady sucked because he didn't even play a full season at Michigan. C'mon y'all. It's what have you done for me lately that matters most.

I know it's crazy for any team investing a top 10 pick and millions of dollars into a player to expect him to be good for more then 1 season.. Like most teams in NFL history drafting a qb that high would want..

Its crazy to want a top 10 pick to be more consistent in College then Will Grier.. 

Yeah you're right..smh

Tell me the last QB drafted who WAS good for more than 1 season, please. Again, no facts just regurgitated opinion about 1 year success. That's weak. and smh to you too whatever that means. Go read some evaluations and find a new reason to not draft Pickett please. The one season argument is almost as old as it is dumb.

I'm not so bothered by Pickett's small hands.  I wish they were bigger but he played fine with them at Pittsburgh.   And his arm strength is no problem either.  He showed at the Combine that he can make all the required throws.  

Even so I still think Pickett would do best playing in a domed stadium.   Saints or Falcons would be the perfect environment for him.  No worries about weather or wind.  Just play.  

For the Panthers, one additional point has to do with Rhule as the head coach.  If he gets canned in 2022, the new coach will undoubtably want his own QB.  He may or may not want to go with Pickett.  So there's even more risk with selecting Pickett given the coaching instability. 

That risk doesn't exist for picking a starting LT, who every coach would want to keep.

Yeah, let the Falcons draft poor man's Matt Ryan. Very poor man's. Matt Ryan almost singlehandedly made BC relevant during his college days. That team sucked but he carried them.

No dude, I was making fun of your point. The whole conversation started from a dumb point. How many good years did Cam have again before his last season which wasn't as good as Pickets? Math sucks I know

Trevor Lawrence, Watson , Jackson I could keep going..

Hmm, how are they doing right now? That what, 3 in 5 or 6 years? Not a lot now is it considering how many QBs have been drafted. But thanks for proving my point. 

It doesn't matter!!!

Cam won a national championship at Blinn College are we just going to neglect that happened now??

 

 

And that's still not the same as being giving the opportunity for "4 years" to be good and players who didn't and blew up the only year they had a opportunity to..

    • Same, bro.  Yeah, it just feels it has run its course and I don’t know that we’ll ever get more value.  Plus, with the new ownership, this draft has been super encouraging, so dare I believe maybe this FO can get something to really put us over the top in return for Melo.  I’ll still be a fan of his game and try to keep up with him if we move on, but yeah, I feel it’s time to turn the page. (and side note: I felt so happy after their rookie years because I told everybody I wanted Melo and didn’t trust Ant.  And Melo clearly looked like the better player early…  I thought Ant would bust because all that stuff he said about not loving the game and just his resume to that point…  but damn, if we could go back in time.🤣🤣🤣. I love Ant’s game and at times, when he gets in the zone, he is THE BEST player in the league in my opinion.)
    • Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.
    • I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
