The 5th? He may not have lasted another 3 picks. Well never know but they knew RB was in demand coming up 

Eh, I’ve never liked Trevor and his brother is my favorite college back of all time.   Rather of had a couple of others and some would have been there in the 5th….

Evidently we just don't want coverage with our safeties. It's weird but hey, we'll see how it all plays out. We sure seems stuck in the '80s and '90s with our approach at safety.

I think it relates to the shift in the league to more of a run-oriented approach offensively.

I thought we were looking for a free safety, he sounds more like he'll be playing closer to the line.

4.53 40 time, so he's got some speed

 
I am pumped about this pick--smart guy.
 
 
Ransom played multiple roles for the Buckeyes, lining up as a free safety in Cover 2 or Cover 4, a deep safety in Cover 1 or Cover 3, a box safety, and a nickel defender. His versatility is due to his sky-high football intelligence and understanding of the coverage scheme from multiple positions

Kurt Coleman is the only answer i can think of fr fr 

That's who I had in mind when I posted but was wondering about others.

Mike Minter was ok but also I was a kid back then so I unno can't remember the best

Most times its injuries or off-field.

 

Maybe but this perfect for us

 

His ideal landing spot is with a 3-4 defense that can deploy him as a stand-up rusher, initially in passing situations while he develops his anchor against the run. The versatility he's shown - working stunts, dropping in coverage, even spying athletic quarterbacks - gives defensive coordinators a chess piece they can move around the formation. Put him in the right scheme, and you're looking at an impact player who should hear his name called in the late second round.

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      A team should always be putting at least one or two draft picks in at tackle and guard each season. Those guys just don't last nearly long enough and those that do get very, very expensive. In our situation, we need a little more time to see what the Icky injury works itself out to. Njiman performed really well out there and if this injury lingers into the next season, then he might do well enough there to hold the line for the team. Or we could draft early if there is a stud LOT in the draft when our spot comes along.  Honestly, we may be looking at replacing both LT and RT this season at this point. Moton is getting long in the tooth and while he deserves a shot to go for a playoff run with this team, I don't know whether we will really see him come back next season yet. It's still so darned early in all of this to say.

      It seems the Panthers have earned their respect back

      Because we had a ton of things go our way this year and made the playoffs with a -70 point differential.  This year was the outlier.  Regression to the mean is unavoidable.  So the team will have to significantly improve to beat 8 wins next year.

      One thing I noticed in this game (and I say this as the biggest of Bryce Young haters) is that Bryce did do a solid job of throwing into voids in this game, and leading receivers on crossers.  There were a few times where I was thinking "where the hell is he throwing it" only for a receiver to appear out of nowhere and catch it in stride.  Mike McDaniel might be a guy that can squeeze a little bit of production out of the otherwise ghastly Bryce Young. His offenses heavily feature that style of passing game.  I've heard Idzik is drawing interest from other teams.  If so, bringing McDaniel in at OC would be a stellar move.  I know it'll never happen, but fun to think about.
