Heh. Wasn’t intended that way, just what I saw. That’s why I hate the “completion % = accuracy” rhetoric. There’s so many other factors that go into whether a ball is caught vs whether it was an accurate throw. 

Yup, you could say that about Arizona's QB too, T-Mac made a lot of catches that he had no business making because of poor throws.

I don't blame anyone at all for being pessimistic knowing this team. But this draft does definitely feel different in many ways. Some of this is legitimately down to just plain dumb luck too. We'll see.

I do believe Tepper let Morgan and Canales handle it.

I think we had a really good draft 😃

I have read different articles that rated the Panthers draft as A, B, and then D. The D was due to the fact that the first pick was not defense. Not much credit for the picks we made in the following rounds. I see people talking about how well the Falcons did. I disagree. They traded next years #1, and only have 6 picks next year. The fact that we got the players we did and still have all of next years picks is huge. One big thing is that we finally are through with the picks we gave for Bryce. I agree that we had a good draft, hopefully we will be proven correct.

I agree and I just read this article that gave us a B- I think they did good hopefully we will be proven correct I have a really good feeling about the upcoming season

 

Carolina Panthers

The Panthers made Tetairoa McMillan the first pure wide receiver taken at No. 8 overall, six spots after dual threat Travis Hunter came off the board. That was a bit early for McMillan, but not egregiously so. Carolina did reasonably well with the values of pass rusher Nic Scourton in the second round and running back Trevor Etienne and safety Lathan Ransom in the fourth round.

Grade: B-

    • I don't believe it's as easy as saying that anyone believes that Rico had the 10th best day on offense. Grades are done in a vacuum inasmuch as they can be. By their very nature, skill positions are always going to account for more "production" in reference to stats, and RBs perhaps even more than WRs because they touch the ball more. You can't look at PFF's grading system, or any football grading/grading system (like perhaps Football Outsiders or Next Gen Stats), so simplistically. If a player has an excellent day, relative to his position, relative to his assignments, and relative to his number of snaps, then he should be graded highly. It's up to the reader (or the analyst, if you will) to put what you're seeing into context, and that's not only in relation to the grades, but the general situation (like whether a player is playing injured, who they're playing with or against---the general situation). Even the fact that (presumably) PFF or news outlets put out a list of the highest and lowest grades, that doesn't mean that said players were the most impactful of the day, it just means that they did or didn't do their job the best, based upon a certain set of parameters. PFF is a part of life for football analysts, talking heads, execs, coaches, players, and even fans (even if indirectly), all to varying degrees. It is a tool that is used by all 32 teams. Obviously it's not viewed so dismissively by franchises as a whole. Execs obviously don't look at it as a bunch of bozos making sh¡t up on the fly. Fans can berate it or swear by it, but it isn't going anywhere.  The only thing that I can tell you is that perspective and context matters.
    • Im not big in to PFF but their guys were raving about his blocking along with our other skill players in the run game. https://youtu.be/D4kL_N97cFQ?si=sJWSZCUA1bj5otyx
