I like Barnes, and I want Barnes. I know he's a good player, but idk how good, as he's not even the first option on that UNC team. They have so many players who do so many things but like in the game vs Duke, you feed him, he does major work.

Will he be a star ? Who knows...stranger things have happened (LINSANITY anyone ?). He apparently has the work ethic to be very good. I know as of know he's better than any 3 on our roster, or that we can possibly obtain.

And while I like Davis, drafting him would be like giving up on Smack.

If Drummond is not the next Dwight Howard, then he's not worth it. They should go with Harrison Barnes, who's the most likely to become the next "6'8" wing star (ala Kobe & LeBron).

Barnes is a lot closer to being a Wesley Johnson or Adam Morrison than a Kobe or Lebron.

Drummond is talented but plays very passive most of the time. I don't see much Dwight Howard in him- Dwight is a true post player while Drummond shies away from contact and doesn't look comfortable banging around in the post. I think a more realistic comparison would be Deandre Jordan. Given the other prospects available I wouldn't be upset with drafting him.

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Im not angry. Im disappointed. I want to win. Anyone who has watched Bryce play the last 3 years and thinks that this team has in any way seriously addressed the glaring deficiencies in our QB room is deluding themselves. It's been explained ad nauseum how our FO has protected Bryce from feeling even slightly challenged or pressured. A GM without an interfering owner would have brought in another QB to at least give the team a better chance at winning. We just gave an extension to a QB that only got 3k yards on the last play of his 16th game of the year. Indy admitted AR wasn't good enough by bringing in Jones to compete for the starting role. Tennessee drafted Ward to replace Levis. Stroud hasn't repeated his 1st year and Mills' performance was decent when he filled in after Stroud's injury and some were calling for him to remain starter. His future there is still in question even with a 5th year. We should have done the same, especially given that Bryce was benched.  Bringing in Grier is just another glaring billboard pronouncing the obvious. Dave Tepper still has his hands in the daily operations of this team. He controls the QB room because Bryce was his pick. Until Tepper finally admits that Bryce has barely lived up to the standards of a NFL Qb, we're going to spend our days reminiscing of when we were mediocre and finished 9-7.  It's just discouraging. We'll address every position on the field except the one with a glaringly obvious shortcoming. I had hoped Tepper really had backed off. Bryce's 5th year, Dalton's 2 year contract then trade, Kenny Pickett, Will Grier, Jack Plummer, and  Hendon Hooker say otherwise. It already feels like it's going to be a hard year of Panthers football to watch.
