I know I don't come on here as much due to the constant moderator-led "I hate Fatt Rhule" crybaby circle jerk. I'm probably not the only one. If we consolidated all the whining to a high estrogen sub forum, it would probably help. I'm not sold om the guy, but dayum, it's been 2 seasons. I used to look at the Jets forum when I needed a laugh. This one is currently more embarassing.

Couldn't agree more.

Sweet moment...

That’s awesome. Seems like a great human being who was raised by two amazing people with a strong base of values. 
 

It’s nice to not only draft a great football player but get a great human being as well.

The effect of this pick must not be underappreciated. We indirectly improved 4 positions with 1 pick. 

Oline got better.. (If Brown ever starts next to this guy ...smdh...defensive players will get mauled in the run game). 

The Rb's will benefit (The protection and lanes he can produce...I actually think Chubba will really benefit from this.. I wont even mention the Cmc and Foreman combo.) 

The WR's will benefit..(More time for route development) 

The Qb's will benefit (Well....*maybe* this will help Sam get his feet in Rhythm without fearing for his life) 

I'm just glad we got lineman who can play LT and G(only if absolutely needed)...AND Icky has an added plus. Not only is he violent with his hands and pulling in the run game, he is really good at picking up stunts (which we struggled mightily with last season). By the time Campen and Moton get working with this kid we may indeed have an All Pro potential tackle on our hands. 

He was my top rated offensive player in this draft. And top 2-4 overall on 85% of big boards if I remember correctly. 

It only took a decade but I finally feel like we've addressed the position for the long term. I'm beyond excited.

    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet. 
    • oh now that's what you call Mother Fiuggure fans the ones that always have this fierce protective shield around the team no matter if they win or lose  & to be honest there is nothing really wrong with being a Mother Fiugguer fan they just have a different meaning or sense of what a true fan really is                                                 ☺️
