Worthy is fastest ever

Hey, hold on guys.  Remember, there are never players available at our pick.  They'll all be long gone.  As it always is, the draft ends before we pick.  Remember past year

Sorry, love the huddle logic lol.

As far as speed merchants go, at least Worthy has the ability to run routes too.  He's not just a vertical route guy.  He can operate in space.

Agree that Worthy looks like a football player and not just an underwear Olympics warrior. Good hands, good route running, great ability to track the ball - even in traffic, and obviously elite speed.

Question is, can Young (with his arm), get him the ball accurately and forty yards down field.

Haven't seen it yet on any consistent basis.

He can. Even if he couldn't, it doesn't matter. The team needs playmakers at WR, whether Young is the QB in the future or not.

I get the snark but our needs aren't changing no matter if Prime Cam was back there.

I like his teammate Mitchell more.  Ran the 4.3. The owners of the fastest combine WR runs also don’t have a great track record so you can only put so much in it.  Mitchell has the speed and NFL body

Yep the top 100 players will be gone by pick 33.

They won’t be I wish they would go back to back WR in the 2nd and 3rd.  There are too many good ones in this draft.   
 

 

Sounds like we are signing a FA OG, so maybe we double dip at WR if the value is right. I wouldn’t be against a cheap FA like Curtis as well to throw into the mix. We need a complete WR makeover.

I'll just say this....if he's the pick at 33 I won't be upset.

I won't necessarily be upset, but I will likely feel that we can do better. He has real limitations in terms of physicality. Contested catches? Blocking? Route running? None of those are checks.

For me, it will probably come down to who is on the board, and I'm just talking receivers; I haven't even gotten to the other positions yet.

Nope, not just the top 100.  Teams will be doubling and tripling down on picks to draft all 6,000 players before our pick!!!

I hope you know I'm kidding.  Huddle Logic is always "the last good player was picked before our pick."  Happens every draft.  I'm just being silly 😃

There's about 5-7 WRs I am totally cool taking about that point after the top 5 WRs are taken off the board.

I'm hoping that we can trade back and pick one of them up.

But there's also about 10-15 that if we got 2-3 of them I would be giddy with. I would like us to do nothing but play makers this year. 2-3 WRs, a TE, and a big workhorse RB. Gimme these guys.

I feel like we're always going to feel like we can do better than the guys we pick. There's always going to be arguments for and against them and someone guaranteed to bitch about the picks (these experts we have in here).

For me it's not really could we have picked someone better, it's "did we make the team better than it was?"

Imo, we're going to have to work hard to screw this up (making the team better). The unfortunate thing is we've got plenty of practice fugging things up. I just hope we've learned something.

    • 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.
