can someone explain the hype on Payton Wilson? seems like a ticking time bomb to me already being 24 coming into the nfl and two acl tears. is it just because he's from State?

I personally prefer younger prospects, because they still have room to develop but Wilson does have very good well rounded tape with a strong athletic profile.  Local kid helps here for sure too.

he's a keuchly -like beast.....when healthy. 

you're taking a gamble. if it wasn't for his injury history he would have been a surefire 1st rounder. 

it's got nothing to do with being from NC State. at the combine he was the LB that everyone was getting excited about. 

google this: combine 2024 LB standout

... see what pops up.

Dude has a nose for the ball and great speed, he is a tackling machine, can dissect an offense and is a leader in the locker room. He makes sense to me in the third only because of injuries, but probably won't make it there.

I could honestly see them trading our 2 second round picks for the Vikings 21s pick for powers the elite center. Out of all the positions there is the biggest drop off in talent after powers which is our biggest need to complete the piece of the puzzle that they invested in to fix. Can’t see them spending all the money to leave a gaping hole in the middle.

    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
