I Know You Want a DT But...

This guy is a play maker. A beast in a weak draft. Carolina switches to a 3-4 next year, they will need this guy. Its quite possible to trade down, pick this guy up and still snag a decent DT or even aquire one in free agency or trade, which would probably be better, no learning curve.

no no no no no no no no no no

Now I am a little biased being a University of Arizona alum, but I DO NOT want this guy on the Panthers. He's a thug, as simple as that, if you think what Suh is doing right now is bad, wait until you see this guy in the NFL, he'll be worse. Yes he's a great player, but he costs his team in so many ways it's just not worth it, he led the nation in personal fouls in both his first two years in college.

I thought drafting Jimmy was bad, I grew up a die hard Michigan fan, but if we draft this thug, it will be even worse in my opinion. Thankfully we'll have a top 5-7 pick at the worst, and this guy will probably be slotted somewhere in the 10-15 range, so it shouldn't be a problem.

u seen our defense? Carolina needs a thug. They need someone to smack the other team in the mouth.

have you seen his non-highlight videos?

Yes, his highlights make him look like the next Ray Lewis, and he very well could be based on his talent alone. But I've never seen a bigger thug in the college game in my life.

For the past few years the only reason I've been afraid of playing ASU is because I was 100% honestly scared that he was going to take out our QB with a late cheap shot. This dude racks up 15 yard penalties like you wouldn't imagine, and they're not ones that he just went a little too far after the whistle, but head butting players well after the play is over and trying to hurt players in dirty ways.

sorry, I dont want nice guys on defense, I want mean, angry, high motor players. So the guy gets carried away, I dont think it something that cant be fixed, and for the talent he has, it would be a waste to not try. Jon Beason can get this guy in control.

So it would be a waste to not draft a guy in the top 10-15 that is such a loose cannon, that he refused to come off the field when his coach ordered him off after picking up a personal foul??

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
