He set the limits of this class, Jesus what a combine....

1,150 yards, 15 TD’s, 2 receiving TD’s

5’10 210

2nd Team All-ACC

4.32 forty at combine (1st)

41” vertical at combine (1st)

10 yard split (1st)

Broad Jump (2nd)

Dude’s an athletic freak and an amazing RB with vision, cutbacks, and power.  Whoever gets him in the mid-rounds is getting a stud.

I would suspect that this assures they draft a RB.

Wait, you mean the staff is giving up on Thomas and Blackshear...in the same offseason?  How do we go on without mediocrity?

Mediocrity would be an improvement. It doesn't seem like they are not going to settle for the status quo. I agree. It's time for another churn.

I agree it's time to reset the RB room outside of Hubbard. I also imagine the decision makers have seen other teams around the league getting high quality production out of mid round and undrafted RB's. Example the Buccaneers with 4th round pick Bucky Irving. All I can do is hope Dan Morgan learned a very tough lesson in his first year.

I hate the guy, but Sean Payton knows ball as well as anyone living. He was asked about what Carolina needs, first he said a 3rd down passing RB and second a safety TE. He said they need to covert more 3rd downs and attack the middle of the field. 

He's right.

I hadn't heard this but I appreciate the info. I could not agree more I despise that MFer. But he is one of the better offensive minds in league history so I will listen to what he has to say if he is truthfully assessing our situation. And yes he is correct.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
