Let him cook

LOL

After all the poo I've taken on here the last year with discussion about him, you're damn right I'm going to cook up a freaking storm right now.

Despite all the words I've said since the pick was made, I'm still at a loss of words to accurately describe my feelings, it's still very surreal to me that T-Mac is a Panther, I feel like the NFL might still be able to step in and take him away from me, I mean us (LOLOL), somehow.

Some of y'all seemingly hate to see other people happy. It's weird.

You know when I won't be happy about this pick?

When it completely ruins my fantasy draft this year, hahahahaha.

We do an auction draft and while I have the most historical success in our league (same group of guys for about 15 years now), my one flaw is that I have a real hard time not overpaying for the guys I have a soft spot for and our league has gotten good at getting me to over bid on them to get them.

I'm so screwed this year, I'm going to have to put a very hard cap on my budget for T-Mac and not allow myself to bid a dollar over it.  I've already made the determination that he's going to be the first player I nominate this year so I can get it out of the way early and don't sit on budget waiting for him only to over pay or not get him in the end.

looking for reasons to like the pick....our QB and both WRs can get the extra extension year if we so choose.  That's important.  Now after Bryce gets his deal (which should not be a record setting one) we may have to choose which WR to extend, but we have 4 years of a cheap trio at expensive positions.  good to have that core together for that many years.

Not that this pick needed a cherry on top for me, but just saw that not only is T-Mac the first player the Panthers have ever drafted from Arizona, we were the only team in the NFL that Arizona had never had a player drafted by before.

So the Panthers take their first Wildcat and Arizona now has had a player taken by all 32 teams.

Cherry.

@tukafan21 I'm happy for ya man. Drafting Julius Peppers is what originally made me a Panthers fan. When your college team isn't a traditional powerhouse you're not going to produce a ton of top shelf draft talent so it's even more exciting when your NFL team drafts one.

I’m an Auburn fan so I’ve been lucky with Cam and DB as early 1st rounders.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
