I loved jStew but let’s not forget he was almost always held out from practice  due to some nagging injuries 

he came into the league hurt.   he played probably the majority of this career banged up.

Catching ability is the only thing that limits any NFL RB from being an every down back.  This is a strength of Brooks or at least it was in college.  He'll be an every down back for sure.  

I’d add pass pro to that.  Hard to really keep a RB on the field consistently on 3rd down that can’t be relied on in pass pro

Did not want him (that high). Taking him meant trading back up for the tackle who I forget his name, but I just wanted a tackle.

He had foot issues, 1st round, I was like... why? 

 

He earned the return on that investment. Great player for us.

Granted his situation was unique with dwill as well as his injuries but its nuts to think he only had 1 1000 yard season.

Then got paired with Cam and that read zone once Dwill was gone. Got to think he would have logged 3 straight thousand yard seasons in that window but Cam was going to get his in that O

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      Not totally inaccurate, haha Except that kid wasn't as excited as I was.  I was yelling louder, and more, and running around the room in circles until I almost passed out from exhausting and was trying to catch my breath for a good 10 minutes because I'm way too old to be doing that, LOLOL Oh, and I tweaked a muscle in my shoulder from all the punching the air I was doing too. For as awesome as that pick was for me, it really screwed me up for a few days between my shoulder and lost voice (Wrexham securing back-to-back-to-back promotions Saturday afternoon contributed to that though too).

      Getting Pierce jr isn’t forfeiting the pick they just had 2 1sts this year.

      Full disclosure and the real reason.... I'll be seeing my Nephew in basically one month from today, and while I've gotten him stuff from my other teams the past year, I hadn't been willing to saddle him with Panthers stuff yet, that's now changed lol. So if the jersey would get to me before I see him, I'd get that and him his first Panthers onesie/shirt so I can get a picture of us together in them. If it wouldn't get to me by then, I'd just wait to get the one I prefer.  So yea, my rush is really just about trying to get a picture of myself in it with my Nephew in Panthers gear too.
