Bro he might not even make it to 8 once the evaluation and combine happen for this kid.  A supposed freak athlete that is an animal in both the pass rush and stopping the run as well as a 4.0 gpa and team leader.   Watch that highlight tape, he is assassinating both guards and tackles. 

I also noticed how bad the officiating is in college sometimes. Dude was getting absolutely flat out tackled on some of those rushes with no flags. I get it, I would try to hold so my QB didn't get his brain scrambled too, but his motor needed to be rewarded some by the zebras. Just seeing his motor and add on the other superlatives, plus he's a native son, no brainer if he's there. These are the kinds of players that change and add to a good culture.

That's something that happened to Pearce a lot this season too.

I worry that we’re going to pray he’ll be “the next Micah Parsons,” and he’ll be over drafted because that’s not going to happen again. Walker seems more like a good pass rusher for a linebacker than a dominant edge. 
 

Which, of course, isn’t usually worth a top-10 pick. 

Fortunately, that works with Evero's scheme. He likes to blitz an LB while using his best pass rusher to draw double teams. If Morgan can restock the secondary with the talent needed, Walker could be a great fit. I can see him taking over Shaq's role (though without the current leadership Shaq brings, of course).

I think he could grow into that leadership role when Shaq leaves.

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

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!

      Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
