Brooks from Texas?

I thought the whole time our RBs are weak.  Sanders is meh and Hubbard is a great backup.  Nothing helps a young QB like great RB.  Brooks is 220lbs with soft hands, good speed and vision.  He’s compared to Jamaal Charles a lot.  Benson is a dark horse…. His vision is not great but he’s a nightmare in open field.  Reminds me of Alvin Kamara.

I haven’t heard this before, what were the character concerns?

Brugler said he heard things "about his character" from squads after the Senior Bowl.  He may have interviewed poorly.  Got all the momentum after the Senior Bowl, but then did the opposite once teams started meeting him and flying him for private-30s

Someone brought up a good point before too with Canales RBs always get fed in the receiving game. We definitely need someone to fill that spot, is Hubba or Sanders that?????

Doubtful 

I just feel they wait a little longer than 2nd round to snag a RB......Brooks is a monster or a DOG so I'd be cool with it.

Theilen really doesn't need to be here.  Wish they would trade him to win now team that could use a savy vet on key passing downs.  He occupies a spot we a really should be using to help develop  young players at.  

If they do draft a Ladd McConkey, then I'm onboard with that.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
