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

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
