If we stay at #1 I think we have to take Nick Fairley since we are so bad at DT. I wouldn't mind seeing us trade down 5-6 picks and get a 2nd round pick. That way we could get my guys Robert Quinn and Marvin Austin as our first two picks but that's just my UNC homer fantasy lol.

I'm going to reserve my judgment for after the combine and pro days. If Gabbert shows that he is an elite talent, that his footwork is good, that he is a capable leader then I think you have to make him the pick. If you think you can get him later then you can also trade down. I'm fine with either scenario.

none of this would show where he is weakest, which is under pressure.

people put far too much stock in the combine. it doesn't show what players do in real conditions, only under the most ideal, with no one coming at you.

i don't care how well he does at the combine. he should not be our selection.

We should learn from the Bobcats.

    • It's been many a year since we were in December talking about how games mattered for something other than draft order. This crazy, mixed up, unpredictable, maddening, uplifting and teeth gnashing season has certainly not been boring.
    • If you look at Brown and Horn's contracts, expect to pay above what he is likely actually worth. This is the Panthers suckage tax. Ultimately, much like Derrick Brown, he has steadily improved over time and that's what you want out of your young first round draft picks. He was one of the biggest and most important question marks coming into the season and he has answered it conclusively. He is "the guy" at LT. Great news, one less position of extreme importance to have to attempt to remedy.  
    • This is maddening because, well, it's so up and down. When the kid's on, he can be great. When he's mediocre, we can still win based on a strong running game and good defense. When he's bad, and over his history he's this more than not, then it's a sad show that no one could win with. How can anyone know what is going to happen right now? Really. It's like picking one flake in a snow globe and shaking it once a week... there is no telling where it will end up. Things I did see on Sunday from Bryce: his teammates love him; he can make the big throws with good protection and good effort from his receivers. He isn't afraid to run. He can rise up against the best in competition (but he can also sink to the level of bad competition).  All I can say is if Canales goes with an aggressive game plan for Bryce that leans on a hot-hand running game, the team can beat anyone. If there's any wishy-washy play calling, then Bryce melts and couldn't beat anyone.  Maybe the person Bryce needs to win over more than anyone is Canales.
