O....kay....?

I don't see any issue with what he said here. He's completely right. It's a random shot in the dark though and those types of guys would need to be coached up a ton obviously. But every year there are pro bowlers across every position found in the mid/late rounds. Campen's job is to focus on the players he has and get the most out of them and the unit as a whole. I'd rather have a coach that recognizes that a lot of guys have talent and it's on the coaches too to get it out of them to a degree. That's better than coaches who make excuses about the players they don't have...

Lots of OL coaches are known for being... colorful.

I vaguely recall hearing someone say Dante Scarnecchia could cuss the paint off a wall 🤬

Same with DL coaches. I still remember Sal Sunseri shocking some mom who had just brought her two younger sons to training camp one year. He just let it loose and her face went white and for some reason she looked at me like "Can you believe that?" and i just looked at her, shrugged, and said, "that's Sal."

I think if Campen was the oline coach last year the Panthers oline would be in a significantly better place this year.    Hopefully they let this guy pick his guys. 

With that said, I have zero doubt they will be better than the past two years.

Between him and macadoo HBO was sitting on a gold mine 

It would’ve been good TV.  Kind of like when you watch Tiger King; you know a lot of these people shouldn’t be in this position, but they are, and the train wreck is a golden goose.  McAdoo is a solid OC but he always puts his foot in his mouth.  Good sound bite material

I could see If an O-lineman was fuging up, and Rhule says, "let's start [so and so]", but the OL coach should have the first say-so in my opinion. It's not like an OL coach is going to intentionally start a worse guy. Pertaining to the O-line, Campen has to know better than Rhule.

and the knock on Rhule is he puts his thumbprint on everything and is a micromanager.  Which seems like a big problem if you hire someone like that and he isn't actually good. 

probably why we saw no difference in the O when they fired Joe Brady.  Same O.  Same problems.

I disagree but see the point.

I remember Gantt saying that when he interviewed Sunseri, there were often things he had to look up to be sure they were printable 😄

I am less worried about the OL after hearing this. 

I feel like Bozeman, Corbett, Moton, and Christensen are set.  It is either a LG or a LT addition that will determine Brady's position.

Understand that this man has been watching a ton of BC film---because if we have a LT, the draft is wide open.

Listening  to that, I have the feeling Deonte may have a shot to compete at a guard spot. I also get the vibe that Neal, Icky and Penning are guys he is high on.  They are 3 of the nastiest linemen in this draft.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
