No it really doesn't

Draft value wise at this moment, the only players that fit into that range are Coples, Still and Reiff.... That's it. CB isn't happening as Dennard or Jenkings are major reaches. WR is a reach there for any of the remaining WR's. Nick Perry fits there at the moment, but is a better fit for OLB at 6-3 255. Really the Panther's don't have too many options if they can't trade down. (once again that's at this moment, the players expected to be there are pretty much Coples, Still or OT that fit the value and the Panther's Scheme.

I'm not sold on him either, but I honestly don't know who else wouldn't be a reach forus. Only an OT would make sense.

There you go then. I have been saying for weeks now that Martin or Reiff are probably going to be our pick if we stay put. Things can change between now and then but thats the only position that is a need (albeit a lesser one) and has value in the top 10. People forget Gross will be 32 by next season meaning we probably only have 3 to 4 years of solid play before he starts to diminish (or retire) and Otah is made out of glass. I hope to god we don't reach for a CB or DT and I never want to see a WR be our pick in the top 15.

Yea, I know Floyd at #7 is ridiculous, but so was Alualu at #10 (and Gabbert at #10 in my opinion). I thought about Coples to them, and I know people have been talking about it, but really their defense is good. They are the opposite of us, they need offense, and they need to help their young QB.

Floyd at seven is ridiculous, they're probable the best place for Coples. If they want WR there's no way they would reach that far, especially with a new coach on board.

Right now most would think that, but in actuality he's the second ranked WR and most have him as a top 12 pick right now. (That's a -5 value for a major need and if they feel he's BPA, then it's a good selection for them) Not as far fetched as one would think with the current rankings.

      Can’t get over this

      By Newtcase · Posted

      It's worth noting that we started playing something that looked like football after going down 17-0 against the Dolphins.  Up to that point we had rushed the ball 3 times and Bryce had two turnovers.   Then we ran it 5 straight times with Rico and he started cracking off some big gains and led to our first touchdown.  Another 37 yards of rushing later, Bryce goes 1 yard complete, incomplete, incomplete to get that field goal before halftime.  Then we committed big time to the run in the second half and played some really nice complimentary football.  The Panthers had stumbled on a formula, and it started with Rico being crazy productive.  Something they only learned because Chubba was injured and Bryce started that game so poorly they were forced to lean on Rico. Fast foward to Dallas, they essentially lean into the same game plan against the Cowboys and I think everyone was surprised by how quickly it started to look complimentary.  In my opinion the productive offense really helped the defense as well.  We played quite solid against a top offense. Finally we make our way to the Jets and Bills, Chubba's return.  You can't say the low scoring affair and return to ineffective football against the Jets was all on Chubba, they were indeed a better defense and so was Buffalo.  But the production difference between the two backs in both games was both visually and statistically obvious.  The bigger picture is the offense took a major step back as well.  They are other moving parts and it's isn't all one thing, BY9>Dalton by a decent margin at this point.   But yeah, Rico's vision and athleticism is just better than Chubba and it jumps at you.

      Shingles…

      By Lame Duck · Posted

      First day in 3 weeks my pain started to dwindle just a tiny bit.  Got switched from hydrocodone to post-shingles pain patches.  My insurance refused to pay for my patches as I’m too young for shingles per them.  I also need a prescription to get shingles shot and insurance also won’t pay for it even thought I just had shingles and in high risk to get it again.
