Picking a guy with a 2nd round or lower grade in the top ten has a very unsuccessful history. That is how you start fuging up a draft.

are you trying to win the draft or win games?  sooner or later, you need a QB.

Nobody is saying overreach but the fact is at some point you have to gamble some.  Unless you have the top pick in a generation QB class there will almost always be better non QBs available.

Losing the draft is how you lose games. 

I am not advocating the top 2 or bust, but you need to believe in the guy or you simply don't take him.

I hope we pick him at this point so I can see some of you guys cry. Good grief 

He's actually going to be a good day one guy for somebody.

I'm on the Official Will Levis Bandwagon and also the Official Myles Murphy Bandwagon but I'm not saying Will should be our pick.

We've been discussing Levis since last season on this here site. 

His OC going to the NFL as well as talent plus injury, although he still had some good games, wasn't the player/offense we saw last season.

He showed off his running ability last season, Will Levis isn't only a QB he's also elite level rushing QB who can deliver blows too at 6'3 230lbs and also runs like a RB if you need him to. 

Him and Corral to me would be redundant because they basically cover all the same skill sets which are many. They both are balanced QBs, equally good at being a running back when needed but both have damn good arms and Matt, slightly better accuracy and pop on his throws.

The only big difference between the two is 1" and 18lbs(Corral draft weight vs today??)

picking nits but MC measured 6'1  212 at the combine and that 212 is certainly not his playing weight

 

Will be interested in seeing Levis and others measurements from this years combine

Corral looks like he's at least taller than Baker listed at 6'1"

Thats cool and all but he officially was measured at 6-1.5 at the combine.  Thats a true measurement  and you are not even factoring in depth perception in that photo

 

Also baker was 6-0.5 at the combine.  Listed weights/heights are not accurate

Oh I did, Baker is still the smallest. I was right behind the bench at fanfest. PJ and Baker were the smallest guys on the field.

Hell, even in high school.

When my high school submitted the team roster to the local paper for their annual high school football preview, I went and looked and found that I was had suddenly become two inches taller and about twenty pounds heavier 😄

      Round 7: The Carolina Panthers select LB Jackson Kuwatch (Miami of Ohio)

      By bigginpc · Posted

      He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.

      This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.

      Round 5: The Carolina Panthers select C Sam Hecht (Kansas State)

      I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
