The Sporting News Panther Draft needs


Jackofalltrades

Recommended Posts

In just the last few hours, I have read that people are cooling on Dareus, that Fairley is falling, that Bowers could go outside the top 10, that PP isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer and will end up a safety, that Gabbert deserves a second round grade, that Newton's teammates don't like him, and on and on.

Leaves you to wonder if the lack of free agency and the lockout leaves too much time to pick apart the prospects.

Hurney has my trust when it comes to the draft...other than the 2nd round.

I agree man, thats why I dont think there's any way in hell we're going QB. Just smells all wrong, but we still gotta sell it. I understand that.

I dont remember any of our first rounders ever being questionable under Hurney so how is it possible that we will pick one like that now. Pep, Beason, Otah, Stew, D'lo, Gross, and Gamble never had question marks. I recall them all being "safe bets". The only pick I remember being questionable was Davis and the pick was still money in the end.

I'm ready for this crap to be over, but if there's no CBA what the hell will be talk about then?

About how such and such was a bad pick, or how good such and such was a good pick. It's the huddle they'll find somethin' to talk about.

Depends. If we pick a DT, we can have anxiety attacks over reports of weight gain. If it's Gabbert, we can talk about his favorite fishing spots.

Sounds kinda bleak, doesn't it?

    • Valid, and throw in that what Wilson and Smith did is not out of the ordinary for a WCO 
    • Darnold was pretty bad until last year.  He implodes mentally, its just what he does.  To this day I dont have a problem with letting him walk.   Baker is a bit different.  He was an ass in Cleveland and they couldnt deal with his poo, but he at least had talent and went to the playoffs.  So you know he could play at least.  There were different stories coming out from the time he got here, competing with Sam and then the practice team release fiasco.  Both good and bad.  Some say he was a good teammate others say he bitched behind the scenes.   From what it appears his wife has worked with him and he calmed down and his play has reflected that.  Tampa loves him.  So if we were going to keep one it probably should have been him but man he was really bad for us.  But to his defense he didnt get the first team reps until late into camp.     In obvious hindsight we should have signed Baker cheap, drafted a dude and let the cards play out, but you know the rest of the story and now we are going to have to watch bryce for 2 more years 
    • Again his one year calling plays happened to be Baker's lowest YPA not counting his split year hear.  That tells me he was less aggressive with a QB who likes to be aggressive.  We have that and almost 2 full years of Bryce Ball here in Carolina.  He will take some deeps shots as most offenses have to in order to keep the defense honest.  Quick passes and hopeful YAC.  I'll give you one guess to which year Rachaad White had the most receptions as TB's RB?  Remember the first thing he wanted to do here is focus on how quickly he wanted to get the ball out.  That's part of his recipe to help QBs and help his OL.  Run the ball, quick passes to hopefully players in space, sprinkle in a little PA.   So yeah you can look at some coaches he learned under and speculate, but I am telling you what he literally is doing and has done as a play caller.  Offenses that were and are 100% his baby.
