What happened to Gilyard!?


Recommended Posts

SLJ lost a bet.

As much as I like the Edwards pick, it pretty much guarantees we won't take Gilyard even if he's there in the fourth.

I could actually see getting another WR (the scattershot approach).

Don't know that we will, but it could happen.

i think we're probably done with wide receivers. gilyard was too much of a risk anyway. lafell is a better bet. i can't believe so many receivers dropped so far. jacoby ford, the number 1 thorn in the side of all gamecocks fans and acc fans alike may be drafted in the 7th round at this rate. trindon holliday after the draft! who's with me?

He obviously didn't impress scouts like he didn't us watching at home. He is still avaliable if Edwards is here for return duties and to run the wildcat instead of WR.

...oh and who is in your avatar.

Yea I highly doubt we will grab another wr, we will look like we dont know what we are doing, majority of picks tomorrow will be defense.

and it is kelly carlson, played kimber in nip/tuck

I know they took two in a row at DE a while back (Chuck Wiley and Mitch Marrow, ugh).

I'll look it up.

Checked it, and indeed we did, in the very draft I was talking about (1998).

I was thinking that was the same year we went for Jason Peter in round one, but I wasn't dead certain. Turns out my feeling was correct.

Three in a row at one spot hasn't happened under Foc and Hurney, but twice they have picked the same spot three times in the course of a draft (OL both times).

    • I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.
    • Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
    • The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
