Just another instance of Fox and Hurney trying to save their asses this year at the expense of the organization..Look what we got in the second round this year..Edwards would 99% have been available in the 4th round. He is projected by every expert as a 5-7th round pick. Not saying he wont be a good player, but fox and hurney constantly preach getting the best player for their picks..and could have got a much better player next year in the 2nd.

Also for all the people saying that he will help in the wildcat..dont think that is why they drafted him, we already have Deangelo who can run that set, and im not sure edwards D1aa passing experience makes him a viable throwing threat.

Look, he was projected as a fifth... but The Golden Calf of Bristol was also projected as a mid 3rd at best. Then the idiot Broncos traded to the FIRST to get him. The draft is as unpredictable as anything.

Losing a 2nd sucks, but it could have been way worse. If you like a guy, you deal for him. Whatever. The Panthers were enamored with him. There must be something there that can be exploited.

And why isn't this in the five million other Edwards threads?

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By TD alt · Posted

      Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
