Umm, Brown’s RAS score was 1.48. His only green mark was his weight, lol. Trey Smith (my legacy) was a 9.8. Still cannot understand how or why we passed on Smith for Brown, who was downright dreadful at the Senior Bowl, and a long snapper who sucked.

Ekwonu, Smith, Bozeman, Corbett and Moton would be really fun to watch. 

You know why, all the blood thinners and heart warning. I was yelling for Trey Smith starting in 4th.....over the Long Safety was the worst.....but not going to complain too much given he must have been off the board due to doctors....I would have took the risk in the 6th. I still got hope for Brown, new OL campy should know how to reach him.

So far, solid draft. Two biggest areas of need were addressed on days one and two, and now on day three they're taking fliers on some solid depth options.

The team so far has picked up back-ups for Brian Burns & Frankie Luvu to help get some fresh legs after the passer, and those guys might even see decent time this season if they can contribute on special teams (going to be funny having an edge rusher as a gunner again). They've also basically got a replacement for Cameron Erving in Cade Mays who is one of those "versatile" players that the regime covets. However, we've got James Campen likely signing off on the pick, so at worst the team has a smart back-up that can play any spot on the line.

Can't wait to see who the last pick is!

Hurney was gone. This was last year, Fitt and Rhule. Both guys were at the Senior Bowl. I watched the Senior Bowl and DL were just running around him like he was standing still. It was after that that his agent likely made him say he lost weight and knew he was too heavy. I know so many complained that he should have played but I wouldn’t be surprised if he never gets to a point where he could start and not let a quick DT tear Corral’s head off.

NVM, I thought you meant Derrick, not Deonte.

Remember last year when Rhule was bragging about drafting Chubba based on his wife's recommendation?  (Chubba iwas in the top 5 in RB carries that went for zero yardage--21%) Remember when Rhule called a long snapper to tell him that he was a sixth round draft pick?

Not seeing that kind of thing this year.

Where else do we need to add depth?  Secondary??

 

They mentioned S before the draft, but I do not see it.

I think TE--but not sure we find enough of a player in round 7.

Sterling Weatherford S Miami of Ohio (if he has not already been drafted) would be interesting.

Jack Sandorn MLB Wisconsin is another idea---no clue

    • I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.
    • It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!
    • I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
