Charlie Campbell Pt. 3


Recommended Posts

Charlie Campbell changed his pick again, this time from Stewart to Walker. This time what's interesting to me is that we pass on Mason Graham (goes to the Cowboys at 12) and Mykel Williams. 

Could Charlie's source finally have left the building and now he's throwing darts? Or does the organization not know who they want?

I like Walker. Not sure if he'll ultimately be an edge or off the ball LB who is a great blitzer but either way I think he's a player. Draft him to play EDGE with the backup plan of putting him off the ball.

My main concern for edge potential (which is the only way he's worth pick 😎 is that he doesn't have an edge build at all.

That's exactly why the Cardinals squandered the early years of Haason Reddick's career after drafting him #13 overall. He didn't measure as an EDGE so they tried to make him an off the ball LB and he was just okay until they finally just said, ya know what... why don't we just let this guy get after the QB? Then he started playing like a guy who would've been drafted #13 overall.

Yea out of all the guys we've displayed public affection for, I think I'd take Walker too.

I'm with it. I get parsons and reddick vibes from him anyway. And he would be the safest pick out of the edge rushers we are looking at. You know this guy is gonna fly around the field hands down. I would look at drafting a more prototypical DE in the 2nd round next.

That analysis of Walker is so contradictory. Need a true Burns replacement which apparently Walker fits? But at the same time he’s too small to be a base edge rusher in the NFL? Walterfootball likes their steaks well done, but not dry.

I guess, where im at, is simply this

a player in the top 10 of rd 1 should be a starter…not a project, not potential, a starter,

….not someone with question marks about injuries, character  or motor 

…the film doesn’t lie…RAS scores do…RAS is part of the eval…but it is the film that tells the story

…as this is the top 10 of the best players in college football that grade well in transition to nfl

your  team should be instantly better by the addition

yes, I understand qb is the exception as it is the hardest position on the nfl to play  im  not talking qb here.

If the best player is that TE, take him…if it’s the DT and he is there, take him and don’t look back

Yeah, I'm not trying to say he's a slam dunk and I'm not sure if he's who is pick but of all the guys that there's smoke about us liking, he's definitely the one I'd pick out of that group.

Weak top of the class and we've already narrowed it down beyond that.  Not much to choose from at 8, and I don't think we'll get great value on a trade back because of it.

Von Miller was around the same height n weight coming out too. If it was Walker, it'd be the best option of the edges unless Carter falls some. Otherwise get the edge in round 2 or trade up for 1 that's falling to the back of round 1.

Im ok with this pick, but If Im the Panthers I would try to trade back a few picks as its assumed an o-line run is coming right after us. 

We might be able to trade back 3 picks, grade an additional 3rd round pick and still get our guy. I would be trilled for something like that.

Miller was a little taller and a little longer but people make way too much about an inch or two on these measurements.

Parsons is a couple inches taller but his arms are actually shorter than Walker's.Screenshot_20250324-113938.thumb.png.bce667c34f72b3addbb614bb0725a7fe.png

    • I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it. 
    • Dan Marino sucked too I guess. Washed up Elway carried by Terrell Davis was actually better than prine Elway. Lol
