I pray I am wrong on him. He did have good college production but his RAS scares me for a guy who is billed as an athletic TE

Well….ill take you back to the Rhule years where RAS was all there was 

there are football players and there are test takers (physical and otherwise)

…but you know what doesn’t lie, tape.

Outside this pick…RAS has still been largely what the Panthers seem to value post Rhule.  
Think Panthers value that under Tepper.  
 

lot do their positional visits and things like feature standout RAS guys

Yeah time to get back to drafting football players. We need attitude on this team again and some personality we can get behind too. Teams been boring as hell since showing all the old guys the door

Damn great pick actually 

Morgan finally just picked a player that was on top of a typical mock draft board. 

JaTavion Sanders was an extremely common fan pick in R3/R4 particularly in a lot of mock drafts.

If you swapped out that LB we got in R3 for Trotter or Gray this draft would be a slam dunk.

I posted earlier with some data that this really isn’t true. They arguably could’ve used more athleticism.

      I encourage you to go back and watch his college play. Notice how he immediately backpedals to 10 yards behind the LOS on almost every snap. You can't do that in the NFL. Your OTs have no chance of keeping those freak show edge rushers off of you. You can't create a pocket that deep. Bryce can chuck it when he has an airport runway in front of him to step up into. There's a reason why "ease of creating velocity" is such a talking point evaluating QBs. It's not how hard or how far you can throw the ball given a perfect situation. It's how hard and how far you can throw the ball in a typical NFL game situation and that's where a lot of my concerns with Bryce were going into the draft. There were way too many plays in his college tape that if you were watching that purely in terms of translating it to the NFL it just didn't work.

      Yeah, like I said I get it. From a revenue perspective I'm not a good customer for them. They've probably intentionally tanked offline franchise mode to try to get people online. Again, not a terrible strategy from a pure business perspective. I can't really be mad at them for doing what's good for business but yeah, from my perspective it still sucks.

      Ok let me be more specific. Smith was a stud before Newton got here do you not agree? Yes, LaFell improved under Cam but then had his best years after leaving the Panthers with Cam as the QB and going to NE. So he improved playing with someone else. Olsen was in Chicage the year before Cam arrived and statistically had the same numbers his first year with Cam.  Hope that's clearer for you.
