I think you can drive yourself crazy (and waste allot of time in the process) trying to read between the lines of what they say in these interviews... when you step back most of it is pretty generic stuff that doesn't suggest anything in particular except they want to draft guys that can help us win.

We're just gonna have to wait until 4/28 to see what happens...

Exactly what I have been saying.

The people that really want Cam will read that into every statement.

The people who don't want Cam or Gabbert will read that into every statement.

Hurney/Rivera have said nothing about nothing.

rivera and hurney continue to say they have to draft the player who will have biggest impact on the team at their position...in less these 2 are idiots i would think that is a QB, not a DT or CB

Oh the irony....the sweet sweet irony

But you can certainly see the results when we do take a risk in the earlier rounds. I'm trying to think of one that worked out...

Otah, the skill and ability is there, no one could predict that he'd have bones made of glass and the slightest touch would shatter him. To a lesser extent I think of him as the Olines version of Dan Morgan. When he's healthy, he's an absolute beast, it's just hard keeping him healthy.

Brown is a solid rotation player.

Edwards is a mystery right now, we only saw him in a handful of plays. If a miracle happens and he does turn into Steve Smith v2.0 then he'd have been well worth the price, and then some. We have to see more of the kid before really judging him one way or the other.

no matter how they say it, the choices are obvious...

offense = cam newton

defense = marcell dareus

Rivera talks about Newton: "He loves him! We must be getting Cam!"

Rivera doesn't talk about Newton: "He's holding back! We must be getting Cam!"

Seriously guys :nonod:

Pot calling the kettle black. This goes both ways.

yeah, I'm still hoping all three work out. I think they have the potential if they work hard enough. however, Otah was the only one that made an impact his first year.

Yeah, we haven't taken any "risks" for a while in the draft

(Edwards), (Otah), (Brown)...

The draft is a game of risk, in varying degrees... Otah has been a good pick when healthy and it's still too early to give up on Brown or Edwards.

"Look at what your biggest need, do they fit that need, and do they fit the team need?"

Also, when Marty and Ron both talk about draft prospects, they always mention Patrick Peterson and Marcel Dareus specifically. Never Cam. Makes me think they are holding Cam under the radar, but who knows.

I'm excited about Ron as the new coach.

Thought RR's phrase is "the process"...lol

    • If Henderson just got a concussion and will possibly/probably now miss next week as well, gotta think missing 2 games of stats at this point of the year might knock him out as he was only just entering the discussion the last few weeks anyways.  Same goes for Judkins going down today too, and Dart's god awful game likely removes him from the conversation as well. It will be interesting to see how the voters compare T-Mac and Egbuka if they end up with stats that are nearly identical. Egbuka burst onto the scene and put up the bulk of his stats early in the year when Baker was playing like the MVP front runner.  While T-Mac was just more consistent throughout the course of the full season (ex. Egbuka has 8 games of 42 yards or less, T-Mac has 4 of them, while T-Mac still scored 3 TDs in those 4 games, where Egbuka only scored 1 TD in his 8). It would be a shame if they put too much weight on the final game of the season if that ends up being the division decider, as I think T-Mac has had the better SEASON while Egbuka had a better peak output during that first month or so but way cooled off since. Maybe Warren goes off in the last 3 games (they still play tomorrow), but it does seem to be down to T-Mac and Egbuka right now.
    • Mitchell Evan’s put a block on someone that he drove them all the way out of bounds and to the bench. He absolutely destroyed the guy. He’s gonna be a beast for us if he keeps that up.
    • Yall... stop taking a sample size and projecting a role player into a permanent starter cuz he had a decent year after what, 5? Come on
