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

    • That's also in an era when DBs could press for 10 yards, Qbs could be hit, QBs could have players land on them, incidental contact could be made with the head etc. You can't compare bryce to players like this. What you can do is say who's done less over their first 30 starts and had more resources dedicated to them and at that point you're looking at like Joey Harrington.  At least with Joey there weren't morons in the fan base falling over themselves to compare him to players from the first year of the NFL merger. 
    • Brees had a pro bowl year in year 3. Phillip Rivers was drafted anyways and Brees went off for two more years before his shoulder was completely torn up in the last game of the 2006 season. 
    • The last time this franchise was in this much despair pre Tepper, the rumors of the banner flyover were met by the front office. They quickly worked with the disgruntled fans to quell any potential negative event occurring at the Stadium or TV. The real question is do we even have enough fans that care to get together behind a movement like this again or is our fan base too far gone that we dont care to revolt like this? Personally, I still go to games each year no matter how terrible it is, but it has went from something I spent all week looking forward to almost as enjoyable as yearly physical. We can count the blunders this franchise has made in keeping Head Coaches, General Managers and players too long. (Rivera,Rhule, Hurney, Fitterrer). Team wise we've missed out on Herbert, we didnt trade Burns for 2 1st round picks, we reached by taking Bryce who would have most likely been were we were going to draft anyway, and extended players who constantly underperformed like Ian Thomas. Even when we are gifted a chance like 2 first for Burns that we shouldnt have paid premium, we fumbled a chance to really jump start the franchise. So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely?
