Hurney, Rivera Looking like IDIOTS


MHS831

Recommended Posts

1) They didn't go to Mallett's but brought him in. Sent Shula instead, and Mallett was at least at one point still in consideration.

2) ESPN did claim Rivera was there at one point, but that has since been retracted. Perhaps something happened?

3) We were surely in attendance even if not with our big guns.

4) We've got a private workout with the guy on saturday.

5) Maybe they already decided they wanted or didn't want him and this is all just a formality either way.

I don't doubt it. I have heard all the crazy praise he's getting. I'm pissed that all I've seen of it is a 30 second clip while ESPn gave me the lovely chance to sit through 8 hours of Auburn pro day. >: |

I think we saw what he did and I'm sure the Panthers know how he looks. I almost wonder if they heard he was throwing to a bunch of "no name" WRs and assumed it wouldn't be worth going to in person and could just watch film so they scheduled a private workout with Ricky Proehl running routes instead.

Might want to look at http://blogs.nfl.com/2011/03/17/gabbert-answers-questions-about-accuracy/?module=HP_headlines and http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/don_banks/03/17/blaine-gabbert-pro-day/index.html#ixzz1GtfZ6rzc if you haven't yet. first is Gil Brandt going crazy over a guy he spent the last month downplaying, second is Don Banks with some comments from OCs that were there.

    • From Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/nutshellsportz.bsky.social/post/3mo3rkrcezs2e  A look at Run Threat Rate across the NFL Run Threat Rate is the percentage of plays where a team either runs the ball or uses play action. This compares each team’s rate when leading or tied versus when trailing to show how much they abandon the run when playing from behind.
    • That's the current dilemma on both parties at the moment. If Ickey comes back too soon, he won't be 100% and his play will suffer. Leading to a potential decrease in his contract. If Ickey is unable to play and sits the entire 2026 season, his contract will still take the same hit since it tells all 32 team that he is not fully recovered. On the Panthers side, I'm sure they would want to keep Ickey if he is fully recovered but he is obviously in a contract year. They don't want to re-sign him to a massive deal since it be too risky and they know if Ickey is able to return to form.  Best case scenario, the Panthers wants to offer Ickey a 1-2 year heavily incentive based prove it deal. However, Ickey would most likely decline the offer and test the market as  another team can come in and offer Ickey a better deal if they are desperate enough for O-line help.
    • They have been giving him a lot of snaps at RT to give TMo some relief in camp. I think that will continue for the time being.
