The last 25 #59 picks

Interesting. I definitely don't have the motivation to do it now, but I think it'd be interesting to look at the last ten years, picks 56-62, to get a wider and more representative sample of the potential value and success rate of players available in that area.

Thanks for posting. Maybe I'll get around to that at some point tomorrow.

We often talk about the negatives of this organization, especially in the offseason...but, in my opinion, one of the MANY positives of this organization has been the quality of our drafting in recent years. There was a post on this, or that moved to this discussion, a few weeks ago so I won't rehash the player by player discussion (also don't have the motivation for that either...)

Point is - I'm pretty confident we'll get a very solid player at that position that will serve us well, and probably immediately.

Ask and you shall receive.... (59-62 since there isn't much point in looking ahead of that spot)

    • What you are saying isn't always true and I'll give you several examples to demonstrate this. 1) The best player on the board at the end of in round 1 by all consensus is RB (top 15 player in draft who slips b/c of the devaluation of the RB position). Your team is in desperate need of a LT because the current one is getting your QB killed. You already have a serviceable RB in place. The LT has a 2nd round grade and you have the first pick on day 2 of the draft Who do you choose? 2) Your run defense was abysmal the previous season. A DT in round 2 does not provide much in terms of pass rush, but most reports have him rated as the best pure run stuffing DT in the draft. The two highest rated players on your board at the time are a TE and tweener at OLB/DE who slipped into round 2 after a run on WR's. Who do you choose? 3) Your pass rush rush is solid across the board. You even have guy coming off of the bench to provide production. Your secondary in below average. No Safety on the roster is a difference maker and as a unit the squad doesn't have an INT. The highest rated player on the board is a DE. The 5th highest rated player on the board is a an intelligent ball hawking Safety. Which player would make the team immediately better?  1) I think the BPA logic applies when your team is solid across the board and you can afford to draft for depth 2) I think it also applies when your team stinks and any solid player will be an immediate upgrade over what you already have. I agree that you should NEVER reach for a player when you are need at a position like we did for Bryce Young. But I also think if there's is a player on the board that will fill a glaring weakness you need to take him even if a player with a higher over all ranking is available at another position (which isn't a need)  
    • Bryce Young excels at dividing Panthers fans. That seems to be what he's best at.
    • 184 yards game, 61% completion 11 tds 5ints    thats ranks :check notes:  25th in the nfl
