Most of these writers are biased toward a few teams .

So its Panthers pick,lets see here is a T E coming up .

Check Panthers stats ,Not one of their T E 's caught alot of passes last season.

Thats what they need and I can slide a better player to another team .

It's almost too Funny !!

I agree. Thank god our team isn't full of their draft choices. We would have nothing but tight ends going both ways.

Here's a suggestion.....DEFENSIVE LINE....hint hint Peppers is leaving, NO depth on DT....Wonder if they will get the hint.

Go Panthers

I have a solution for these mock drafts. Have a guy that knows each team inside and out (someone that the fan base respects there opinion, maybe have an election on the biggest forum site for the team) and let them pick there teams pick. This will save some money and face. Most of these guys only pick on who they like whether or not it fits the teams philosophy.

Mock Drafts are pretty lame in general. I remember after the draft, I went back through the major mock drafts that were released just a day before the draft. Maybe 50% of their selections are correct in the 1st round. It's pure stupidity and absolute drivel. All it does is generate talk for stupid sports shows.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      Poster board? Were you trying to use the term poster child?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By TD alt · Posted

      I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive short or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads, be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
