Hubbard's job until he loses it.

Brooks will spell him. 

Legette will line up in split back sets and sometimes start there with Brooks in the slot, I'm guessing. Allows for misdirection.

 

I think this is a good pick, but it all depends on that knee. If it goes this season at any point, bad pick.

Also ..dear God get grass in that stadium now

Thats the whole point there really isnt any RB on the planet earth that is really moving the needle for any team. 

We had the best RB in football for a couple seasons and still only managed 5 wins. 

You either have a QB or you have nothing. 

No mid second rounder is moving the needle that much unless it's a QB relaxxxx

The point is that workhorse backs are no longer a thing in the NFL. Loads are split and risks are hedged accordingly since each team carries a number of backs that all play.

That said, it is certainly better to have good backs than bad. I know nothing about this player and do feel Carolina has bigger needs but perhaps he truly is BPA.

Personally I love the pick. I love Matt Rhules wife's pick but exactly, he isn't him. I hated the Sanders pik up and got shizzed on to oblivion. Pay no attention and I hope I'm wrong on Leggette.

To compete in the NFL you need talent loaded at skill positions, hell look at Dolphins man! To compete you need game breakers and this guy has that written on him

It’s a clean ACL. The knee is fine.

What have the dolphins won other than some regular season games? 

They arent winning poo going against PM, Josh Allen, Burrow, etc. 

Tua aint it. 

To compete you need an Elite QB.

Damn...I didn't know we had to win playoff games to be good...I was thinking that if we built a team that won 9-10 games we were going somewhere...

Im not interested in years of one and outs in the playoffs. Thats no better than years of 5 wins. 

We can make the playoffs but then we dont have a snowballs chance in hell of advancing.

We may as well be the Dak Cowboys or Cousins Vikings.

They hung 70 on and NFL defense without an Elite QB sooooo we were the worst scoring offense I have ever seen....

 

You still want to argue you JUST need an elite QB now of days?

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
