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

Exactly,  his arm length  is longer than parsons and at basically  the some weight.  Some guys just play way bigger Than their size. He flashes on film more than anybody outside of Carter.

Turn in the card. 

Yeah when you look at the film, he does seem to get a good separation(hands on tackle) from the lineman. Just didn't know it was at 32. Dudes a true athletic freak.

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.

That seems like a compromise you shouldn’t have to make at 8. He might end up a decent player but I don’t any reason to compromise at 8. The same thing happened with Bryce Young.

And everyone always ragging on Hurney about picking non premium players but want a off ball LB in the top 10. So we are back to picking outliers for top 10 picks if they think he is a rush end. A lot of draft people don't even rank him with the edge players. Then some complain about Burns run stopping but this guy is smaller.

6'5 250 vs 6'2 245

It’s all word salad for people who are caught up on measurements. Watch the tape. He’s an edge rusher, but gives you an added bonus of rushing inside or spying on obvious passing downs. He’s also tenacious in pursuit from everywhere. The role will be similar to Micah Parsons role in Dallas. It’s not a real/project, tweener deal.

If you don't want to compromise with an edge rusher you better be drafting top 3. You don't find Julius Peppers ideal prototypes at #8. It's why I lamented winning those games at the end of the year. Now we pay the cost.

Why are people acting like there is a path to winning the draft?

Is doesn't matter if you're drafting on measurables, college production or potential, especially in the top half of the first round.  Teams with all the resources in the world hit on a top 10 picks roughly about 40% of the time.

This doesn't mean teams can't get some advantage.  Teams are slightly better than random chance at selecting the right player that will be average or better in the NFL.

I really like Walker but I've put some time in researching Mykel Williams and there is a lot to like. 

Physical traits are off the chart.
He's 20 and already very good.
He has a low snap count because Georgia is deep so they rotate a lot of elite talent.  This also bears out historically as many Georgia players have better NFL stats.
He gets consistent pressure relative to his snap count.
Really good against the run.
Perfect fit for Evero and our defensive system.
Canales and thus the Panthers are a developmental type coaching staff. 
Lines up every everywhere from 4i to edge.  (4i is inside the tackles inside shoulder and shows big time hybrid DT skills, again is perfect for Evero)
In the SEC title game against Texas he had 2 sacks and 5 qb pressure.

I'd love him here as a Panther.

If we knew what players are ready to start game 1 or are worthy of a top ten pick we would not be having this conversation. 

It's such as easy choice that teams spend millions of dollar to help make the decision and can still only do a little better than random chance. 

I don't think he's as much of a project as people think due to snap count and how Georgia rotates players.

      Looking to middle Denver / Minnesota.  Hopefully can cash out both before game ends and make some money on each.

      Draft Taylen Green

      By Basbear · Posted

      Forgive me and all, I think I seen rapport talk about Willis market will be 30+, which is insane. He said many teams are interested and he impressed with his play last yr. I cannot believe some team is going to give 35 per year along with 50 in guarantees. Just hit the market at the right time, the draft sucks after the top guy and current FA looks poor given Jones is with Indy...it was just leave Willis......*tua, Watson, Murray, smith, cousins, _______ should be ava tho...but teams seem down on half of them, even as min type of deal. medical wise tua should retire, cuzins haaaassss to be showing his age soon, right?? Watson, when was his last NFL pass in a game; 2-3 years ago??

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By Basbear · Posted

      I swear..... this is RICH coming from a guy talking about cuming down some random #6 womans throat while you were married to Angie, the wife who gave you children.  Steve talks about being a 'man" and all that stuff, the husband of the woman whom Steve sent all those lewd text messages called you on face time. Steve started crying like a BITACH and ended the call after a bitach voiced "Im sorry". fug Steve Smith, Im shocked he's not in jail and Im done with him getting career as a world class asshole. Go enjoy your empty home and I hope Angie takes ALLLLL your money and time away from your kids. God forbid Steve influences them with his "Im from the street" mindset.  Angie and John Kasay helped steve form being Steve, what a joke. insane levels of irony form this Steve weirdo that thinks he's super smart and people owe him all sort of special treatment when he is a giant turd inside and out.
