Golden jumping Tet is crazy to me. Prospect fatigue killing him. 

Well you do have to consider that most draftniks are idiots. Look at Mel Kiper, for instance. Considered a pioneer but one of the least knowledgeable guys in that field.

Right. Day 3 only though. Obviously he's more quick than fast.

I ran a 4.6 in high school, and I didn't even run track or train for it. Granted that's probably closer to a laser timed 4.8. I was the slowest runner in my high school backfield - they were all track sprinters though. 

I was first in the mile among all backs and ends (wideouts and TE's).  I'll never publicly give up my 40 time, though.  No bueno.

Not sure if it is draft fatigue or not. A lot of times the analysts are wrong and get closer to what actual NFL people think the closer the draft gets. This might have been the true direction for a long time.

Combine, pro days, etc. giving numbers.   people in groups (scouts, coaches, players) talk.  More data, more rumor fodder.

What you guys think about Desmond Watson.  464 lb DL who put up 36 reps of 225

Honestly, if he's there in the 7th why not.  Can use him on 3rd/4th and 1. Would like to see a 450lb dude line up with 2 350 lb dudes beside him against the tush push

I’d jump on Jaylen Noel later in the draft. Deep threat with return ability.

Either of the Iowa State guys I'd be happy with, Noel or Higgins.  Noel is projected as a slot guy, Higgins on the outside.  Depends on what he team values more.

    • 4610 total yards 27 total touchdowns 8 yards per attempt. Completion percentage was usual Cam ie mediocre or below at best at 57.7 and 86.2 passer rating. But the man scored points and moved the ball at will often. Compared to 2652 total yards 21 total touchdowns 6.3 yards per attempt completion % 60.9 82.2 passer rating. Let's just not do things like this. We can acknowledge Bryce improved (from realistically a bottom 5 QB) and hope he can work his way within the top 15 this season without dragging Cam Newton into it and unintentionally diminishing him. That's all I got to say. Carry on.
    • I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!
    • Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.
