For sure but I would look into it

I'd always look into it. If there's time on the clock and the phone is ringing there's no good reason not to have a conversation. Someone on the other end might be ready to do something stupid. Granted, historically that someone has been us but hey... LOL

Presumed top 10 picks not working out at the Combine has just become standard operating procedure. Sucks, but it is what it is. Not working out hasn't seemed to hurt anyone's stock so until that dynamic changes thats what it's gonna continue to be. They have more to potentially lose than to potentially gain.

The little tape I’ve seen of Bain Jr has been immaculate. Wish we were picking top 10.

Yeah, he looks like a stud. If his arms come in sub-31" that's definitely cause for concern but I still don't see a pass rusher with his game tape falling out of the top 10. Maybe it would keep him from going top 5. Micah Parsons only has 31.5" arms.

The thing I like about Bain is that even if he doesn't work out as an edge rusher, he could easily put on 10-15 lbs and be an awesome 4-3 DT or 3-4 DE. I think he is just too good of a player to bust outright. He will be a contributor.

    • I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy. 
    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
