Very real possibility Will Johnson is BPA when we’re picking 7…

I understand we need talent at literally every position but Mike Jack hasn’t been bad and they’re going to lock up Horn

If we do end up with Johnson and Horn I’d like to see us play a crap load of man

I'd be surprised if he's still there at 7, personally I think he's the top CB in the draft (his size is the differentiator for me when comparing with Hunter)

In that case if we are 7 you got 2 CBs and 2 QBs gone by pick 5. We get either the #1 DT, DE, or WR. Im happy with any of those tbh

Why? I can name 3 other players arguably as good or better than Horn in that draft. The point is, there’s no reason to lose sleep over picking 4 vs 7 unless there’s a generational guy which there isn’t. We have the same shot of screwing up 4 and we do 7, just whatever happens happens. BPA at one of our biggest needs 

It has nothing to do with Horn and it has nothing to do with even the Panthers

It's a general statement for all teams/fans who like to say, "but Parsons went 12th, blah blah blah"

Parsons was a MLB, he was never going Top 5, even sneaking into the Top 10 would have been tough, people thought we were crazy to take Kuechly at 9 since he was a MLB, they just never go that high in the draft.

Anyone who points to Parsons draft position compared to the player he is today is completely missing the point, he was NOT a pass rusher coming into the draft, so any talk about his draft position is just flawed, literally even the team that drafted him didn't see him being a pass rusher for them, it took injuries for them to find it.

And no, you don't have the same chance at screwing up a higher pick.  The higher your pick, the better chance you have at not screwing it up, that's just common sense.

Sure, and I think it's one of those things that comes down more to need than anything.

But personally, I think he'd go ahead of Carter and Graham, and again, I personally rank him over Hunter as well.

The Giants and Raiders winning though actually makes it less likely of Johnson falling to 7 anyways.  There is a very real chance that neither of them feel these QBs are worth a haul to move up to get them, which if it's the case, it opens up 2 more players to be drafted in the Top 3 that aren't QB's

Taking another guy coming off injury is too risky for me.  Pass

Why do you keep going back to Parsons? I'm not talk about Parsons at all.

I was responding to someone talking about Parsons, so I pointed out that using him as an example is horrible because he wasn't an edge rusher as a draft prospect.

You responded to that by talking about the Horn pick, I was just re-iterating that my point had nothing to do with us, it was solely about Parsons being an anomaly who changed positions and why he's a bad player to use as an example of a stud being drafted outside the Top 10.

So I could say, why do you keep going back to Horn, I'm not talking about Horn at all

I’m going back to Horn because, again, my point is there is no point losing sleep over us picking 7 vs 4. We are the Panthers, we have the same chance to make a good or bad pick at both. We don’t evaluate well.

Maybe less social media vids serving raccoon to the lockerroom and more time on a fuging JUGS machine.

 

You can tell he’s eating all this attention he’s getting from the country accent, raccoon, etc up. The only thing I care to hear about, when it comes to XL this offseason, is about the wrist getting fixed and him working on catching the ball. Don’t care about any of that other sh*t lol

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
