So a CB hasn't been drafted first overall, fine...

Im just arguing my point. I highly doubt we draft peterson and I really really highly doubt this thread will change any of that.

It will. I already emailed it Hurney and he said he had no idea this is what knowledgeable fans wanted so he said he's going to do it. He just hopes that people will still buy jerseys next year because he was banking on all of them being Cam jerseys. He did say he'd trade the jersey sales for wins though.

Jets had the best secondary in football the last two seasons, how many superbowls?

They had a great corner and a terrible corner.

i like it when salty talks slutty

Me too

Yeah, but they don't have the worst offense in the history of the league either.

It's pretty bad. Once our WR develop, ours will be just as good if not better than theirs.

Yeah but I think you are forgetting that DT is the safe pick :hand:

safer than pp7? i think not. I dont believe there is any relevancy to the fact that there hasnt been a corner drafted #1 overall. Its up to RR and MH to decide who will make the most positive impact this year.

I would hardly say Cromartie is horrible... hrrm. I still think locking down half of the field on defense would be way better than drafting a QB who does not even have the proper footwork for the NFL. It is mind boggling. If you want to do that, draft Kapernick in the 4th or 5th... He's Newton without the Under Armour Deal, and more TATS.

Gabbert or Newton would not fill a hole... or a need... its like throwing a big bucket of poop at the wall and see what sticks.. in the end... the only poo in the room is the draft grade you get next year... and again, you become the lions. Yikes. Take P^2 because he will be a dynamic returner, and a shutdown corner.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
