Did anyone listen to Hurney tonight on the Pulse?

general stuff. if he had to make the pick tommorow they could and feel good about it, but things are still subject to change. they will have their meeting with the college scouts tommorow and bring all the information they've learned on prospects together. asked about other players not being named cam newton being the safer choice like dareus and peterson. said something like both can be impact players at their postion, hopes the player they draft will be the most impactful player they could get for the team. brian murphy was on the phone and talked about the impact of the kickoff rule change and that having a premier KR might be even more important. Hancock didn't really pressure Hurney to tell him who they were going to pick but he did ask sort of in jest..probably more but i'm paraphrasing from memory. Some stuff about how Cam's interviews went but if I remember he danced around that question too.

I do think you can infer that he kind of let the questions about PP and Dareus roll off his back and then said they hope the player we get will have the most impact on the team at his position...

Sounds like PP and Dareus aren't the pick. I've always said that PP is probably the safest bet out of all the guys being talked about - you can plug him in immediately and he's gonna be a Champ Bailey type of guy IMO. But, that isn't going to win you games by itself. Especially when we already have talent at pretty much every position on defense, with DT being the weakest. But, same thing, Dareus isn't going to win games with his performance alone, and that's what we need with the #1 pick.

I'm thinking Green or Newton. I hope Newton.

    • I did not, this reminds me of another live action type video game that never made it and has a huge cult following. Thanks for the 90s nostalgia frend!! My gods do I miss that era at USAs peak and it was my best on many aspects too. 
    • Many layers my frend- Panthers had a draft recently. They picked 4 defense players. Each player picked 11, 22, 33, 55 as their number. For some players that number match the round or pre-draft round rank, example- Prince was a 3rd rounder and choose 33. Nic was a 1st rounder on some mock drafts and Dan Morgan said they had him as a 1st, he picked 11. Cam Jackson recently switched his number to 55, same as draft and has been telling Dave he wants to be special over and over.  The 44 was to add GOAT feels, thoughts, and more intrigue to this rookie phenomenon. X files cause it was a great TV show and maybe it was playing when this theory came together.......   I hope this helps!      
    • The best things Purdy has are certainly important tools for any QB. His accuracy his timing his decision making etc. I feel like he is a high end Teddy Bridgewater. You can compete and win in the regular season with this especially in a weakened NFC but where his limitations come into focus is when you are trying to contend for a Super Bowl you are going against elite and in some instances generational QB's like Mahomes. And when the time has come for him to go up against Mahomes he simply can't get it done. Now certainly he is not alone in that regard and people will point to another highly regarded QB such as Josh Allen who also cannot get by Mahomes. But the difference I see is Allen is not IMO at a phsyical disadvantage in that matchup whereas Purdy is. And that is with what had been to this point a comically stacked roster around Purdy and let's be clear we cannot understate that regardless of which side of the fence we land on in this debate. Purdy has had a top 5 roster and a top 5 coach. And the last time they went to the Super Bowl they leaned on McCaffrey extremely heavily. Now with what they are having to pay him and divert limited resources elsewhere they face a steep climb to get back to the Super Bowl let alone actually win it.
