Brandon Graham - I'm Sold

Recommended Posts

Are you watching this kid dominate the best Seniors in the country? He could play either RE or LE. He plays the run almost as well as he rushes the passer (did you see that containment on the toss). I'm sold, he needs to be in a Panthers uniform next season.

do we have the ammunition.

Who knows? Maybe he will go into the draft and have average numbers (I know his size will always be in question to the Al Davis' of the NFL). He might just make it to us. I doubt it based on this performance but the combine has always made some guys rise and fall so who knows.

my thinking is if we trade peppers..then we would go after a bigger DE more LE type.

6'1" 263 might not sound like much but thats pretty thick for a 6'1 frame. He has great acceleration and pass rushing skills and plays the run very well. Sounds like a perfect fit for a Meeks undersized talented type of DE.

we could franchise pep, then trade him before the draft for a high draft pick in rd 1, then trade down a few spots for a 1st and 2nd or something then take graham in the 1st, a DT and WR in the 2nd.

I'd hate to lose pep but that scenario would have me running through the streets naked on draft day.

I would praise the genius that is Hurney if that happens. But don't count on it.

Perfect Scenario

Late 1st: Get Graham

1st 2nd: Brian Price/ Dan Williams

2nd 2nd: Jacoby Ford or Gilyard

That draft would be one of the best ever for us at least on paper.

Wouldn't mind seeing Lefevour in the 3rd-4th range as well.

We need a Wide Receiver more than anything. Draft one with the first pick we have, no matter where it is.

Pretty much. We've got two receivers and something like four projects on the team right now.

Fortunately, this is a GOOD draft to need WR help, really deep.

It is interesting that people want to trade probowlers for draft picks. Exactly how many sacks did Brown get last year? How many did any of the rookie defensive ends get? How good have we been developing wide receivers we drafted?

I am not saying there is a way to do it or not do it. Just that for whatever reason, we don't seem to get alot out of our drafted players at DE or WR. In fact the last 2 who made a big splash were Smitty and Peppers in 2001 and 2002. Since then...........not much.

    • https://www.yahoo.com/sports/article/versatile-2nd-db-named-panthers-154026075.html Smith-Wade's ability to play corner, nickel and safety makes him valuable to a young defense trying to rebuild after finishing last in the NFL a year ago. "Chau took advantage of an opportunity,'' coach Dave Canales said. "He made tackles. He had an opportunity on an interception, and he made it.'' Our defense has got to come alive for us to have a chance of winning our Division!
    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.
