Tell me one point I'm wrong about in all of that?

And yea, if you love Colorado, a school/players you have zero connection to, more than I love maybe the best player in school history, from the school I graduated from, then it would be a really bad sign for you, not me, lol

The fact that my NFL team could be in a position to draft that player and is at a position of need for them as well, yea... I'm going to defend him at any and every opportunity.

It's not often the best player in your school's history might get drafted by your favorite NFL team.

Did I say you was wrong?

Was just weird post to compare my love of the best player in school history, from the school I graduated from, to your love of a random team/player that you have zero connection to.

No poo I'm going to love him more than you love Colorado/Hunter/Sanders lol

If we don't draft him, T-Mac is going to be the only player who has a chance to take over my "favorite non Panther in NFL history" from Gronk.  But even then, it's going to be real hard if not impossible for him to do that, seeing as Gronk not only turned out to be the best TE of all time, his 2 years in college (injured his whole 3rd season and didn't play) were my last 2 years in school, so I got to watch him in person in college too.

Gronk is also the only other Arizona football (or basketball) player that I've ever talked about being so sure they'll be a superstar in the pros like I have with T-Mac.  That's how sure I am of him being a star, it's one of those things that's hard to exactly put into words, but watching them, they just look and feel different.

I was telling my friends Gronk was the next big TE after literally his first college game as a Freshman when he carried 3 players hanging on his back almost 10 yards.  You could just see it right away, there was something different about him, and I see it in T-Mac as well.

Sounds good, but I rather have Hunter if available.

 

The thought of Horn/Hunter DB tandem seems more dynamic than Brown/Graham tandem.

The need for a stout front seven on Defense outweighs the need for a top tier CB at this time. Get the Dline right and stop the run/ pressure the QB, will make the biggest difference.

Add a CB in the mid rounds. Not having to cover wideouts forever with a good pass rush makes a big difference.

To be honest Micheal Jackson hasn’t been bad and I wouldn’t mind keeping him instead of using a 1st round pick on a CB.. I would love to treat the front 7 and run and pass rush like we treated the Oline last year.. I would grab a safety at some point in this draft thoe..

Agree. A solid front 4 or 5 will cover a lot of other deficiencies in the back 6 or 7.

And isn't Johnson dealing with an injury, or is he back 100% yet? Turf toe is a lingering injury. I just feel snake bitten at this point. If he doesn't have a clean bill of health, then don't touch in the 1st or 2nd.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
