I don't think he's legitimately in the mix for the first pick, but I could understand why they'd be interested in him.

I don't want him, but I do think he'll be the best pro out of this crappy class.

Also, I'd be really surprised if he, Hurney or anyone else definitively ruled anyone out as a possibility.

Sure he does, he's got his poker face on right now... what he's really saying is: if you like Mallett, call me.

i don't see it that way. i don't think ANYONE is liking mallett enough to call about the #1. Now if they want gabbert or newton, and they know we like mallet enough to trade down and take him later, then this is to let teams know we're open for business.

You never know... look at how much did Denver gave up to jump up and grab The Golden Calf of Bristol :out:

I do.

Wouldn't be my choice either, but like I said in the other thread, what we see from guys like Mike mayock and Mel Kiper has no bearing on the Panthers. Their scouting department may grade Ryan Mallett higher than any of us think.

I think it is hard to believe for the number 1 pick. I think this is for a situation we trade down or trade back into the second round if he is available and we don't pick a QB number 1.

You may be right but it is hard to believe when there are reports out there like this:

Per CBS Sports:

"Multiple sources inside the league" tell CBSSports.com that Arkansas QB Ryan Mallett is viewed as no better than a borderline first-round prospect.

Mallett is "very much fighting just to stay in the first round," the sources say. Panthers coach Ron Rivera recently suggested Mallett was one of his team's targets at No. 1 overall, but the coachspeak can't be taken seriously. All in all, we'd be surprised if Mallett was drafted in the top 25.

I think this is bs personally and still think he is off the board much higher than he is being projected. But number 1 is hard to believe.

You never know though, you could be right. :confused:

      Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
