No one would care about Jackson State's coach "shaming" NFL teams for not attending his pro day if that coach wasn't an NFL HOFer. I still don't.

Spot on. 

Screw Deion🖕.

Get a 😂 out of the "when we arrive" comment...

...he'll bail on that program before they "arrive".

I don't understand the vitriol toward Sanders here. He's stumping for his players and his program. That's what he should be doing as the head coach of Jackson State.

He isn’t an old rich (rich but not on this level) owner of a team. 🤯🤯🤯🧜‍♂️

If there is one player, you don't have to go to the pro day, you can have a private workout when it is convenient.

Very good point.  I have also heard old GMs say they have missed certain pro days on purpose because they were already sold on a guy and wanted to throw off the scent.

There is a reason why franchises like the Steelers have had players like John Stallworth & Donnie Shell, and the Colts with Darius Leonard, Robert Mathis, & Antoine Bethea while we rather reach for players like Armanti Edwards & Will Grier.

Our scouting department can do more.

I love the Antoine Bethea story the way Bill Polian tells it.  He said he was going thru film of prospects when he came across Bethea.  He wasn't sure whether he should look at him as a safety or a corner in Dungy's defense, so he took the film to Dungy.  After seeing the kid play Dungy asked Bill if other people had seen the tape.  Bill said NO, just him and Dungy.  Tony told Bill to draft the kid, and not to discuss it with anyone for fear of the "secret" getting out.

They end up drafting Bethea, with the idea that he will begin his career at safety and as he gains experience he will move to corner.  In one of his first practices at safety he gets 2 picks.  After the second pick Dungy turns to Bill and says "I guess we are leaving him at safety."

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
