Round 1 - Panthers Select Tetairoa McMillan at Pick 8

[Cuttinedge]

So does this light a fire under XLs butt 

[Growl]

I’d honestly still consider Isaiah bond. Not round 2, but round 3? Maybe… 

[rodeo]

I have no concerns about Tet's skills, and the Huddle would have said all these same things about drafting Mike Evans. My only concern is what we're going to do about our historically bad defense. Signing a couple DTs doesn't fix it.

Trade back into the first possible?

They going to have to trade up in order to get a decent edge

I’m glad that Dan Morgan learned from his mistakes and didn’t tip our pick this year. He had all of us fooled.

That's my only problem with the pick. I think Coker is going to be our future #1.

Careful... it's never a certainty. Remember Gettis or hell, Rae?

I think this is a vote of no confidence in XL. 

Tet has something that XL seemed to struggle with, and in fact most of our receivers room struggled with (besides Coker) and that's SURE HANDS. McMillan is big and catches like it's his nature. I think he'll be a great weapon for Bryce.

the plus I see is Bryce being the VET amonst young rookies.  He gets to be the leader.  VET WR's will try to dictate what they want, when they want it.  Good for Bryce to grow this way instead of trying to fulfill VET WR demands.  It's put up or shut up time for Bryce.

"He is too slow."

"He can't separate."

What lazy takes, go watch him play and you will see that just isn't true.  Love this pick. Our WR room looks to be in great shape this year.

Lets not forget Canales and Idzik both coached WR. perhaps they already see how to maximize and have a plan. I mean he DID know what he was doing with Bryce!

And xl?

[outlaw4]

I'm against using 1st round picks on WRs on principle, even more so when it's a guy that doesn't necessarily impress me. 

Up to Canales and Bryce to get actual production out of him.

Okay, but we didn't, we loved Evans and prayed for him to fall to us until it was apparent it wouldn't happen.

Also, this forum has been way better at rating draft prospects than the front office since Tepper has been at the helm.

Tyleik Williams would be nice.

Ez would be good at edge.   

[Waldo]

Remember when people here would talk about how little separation our WRs get? LoL I guess.

I think it's hilarious. Also they have learned nothing so expect someone next who won even play next year. Which edge is the most injury prone?
