In terms of recovery, it is. What kinda sucks is that he's basically a redshirt rookie next year having gone through a camp and preseason but only a couple of real games before getting hurt.

It is what it is though. But yeah, in terms of recovery time he should be plenty ready to go for camp. Had we been in the playoff chase it's possible he could've even returned late last season.

He was pro-ready day 1.  That hasn’t changed other than he’s had a full year of NFL weight training and nothing to do but go back to the fundamentals aka rehab.

Slater was the correct choice for us, IMO.

I don't think that has anything to do with how good Horn will be as a player, however. Everything about him indicates he will be a great NFL player in time.

I like the Horn pick. 
 

We’re a low Slater pff grade in 2022 from no one believing he should’ve been picked over Horn. Especially if Horn had the kind of year we expect.

It goes beyond PFF grades. He played very well and certainly looked the part of a franchise left tackle. Barring some Matt Kalil-like fall, that one will hurt for a while.

I was screaming "Take Slater!". Was saying it here before the draft as well. Been asking for OL since Cam was QB1 years ago.

You can not underrate what a corner who can shut down one side of the field can do for a defense.  I believe that Jaycee is that guy, and will be All Pro soon.  

If he stays healthy he will be the best corner in the NFC along with Lattimore. As far as pure intangibles he’s off the charts. Guys like Diggs and Slay aren’t close (in part bc of Slay’s age). Ramsey is fantastic but I think a lot of his greatness is in the lore that follows him. 
 

Horn looks like a strong safety out there but is playing corner.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
