The late round trend: Panthers picking athletes.

Edwards, Hardy Gettis, Pugh all picked for their physical skills.

Edwards is fast, quick, agile and tough for his size.

Hardy: Pep's body with injuries and even more questionable effort.

Gettis: Perfect WR body.

Pugh: Fastest CB in draft with great leaping ability. Can't tackle for toffee. The anti-Munnerlyn. I suspect we'll put them in some kind of device to meld them into a HoF CB.

All high risk high reward.

I don't think late round selections count as "high risk." It could just be me but 5th round and later (especially compensation) picks just don't quite fit that description.

By high risk I mean higher chance of being off the roster next year compared to our normal OL/FB/TE picks this time of the draft. Just a higher chance of boom and a higher chance of bust.

      He's a free agent next year actually. Wish we had the balls to bring him in to compete, looking around the league though he might get a legit starting offer or at least an offer to compete somewhere that he would control his own destiny.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      I don't love Bryce Young.  I DO understand his abilities as a QB. I dont expect him to do things that are beyond that. I also dont hold it against him.  The ability to throw 40 yards in with the velocity to take your receivers hands off, doesn't have the impact on the game as people think it does.  I think it's a pretty silly thing to even attempt to debate, when the ones crying about it doesn't add context.   Bryce can and does throw deep.  His last TD to T-Mac was a thing of beauty,   and the ball placement was incredible,  especially for the distance of the throw.  I get it y'all want to talk all day about his physical limitations, rather than look at what he does, and does well.  We wouldn't be playing meaningful football in December without him.  That is a fact.  Bryce doesn't fit the mold of my type of QB, but I don't hold that against him. That is beyond stupid.

      I knew you'd be dismissive.
