This guy looked great today.It appeared he could be used in coverage as a cb if needed.Where is he expected to be drafted?

Personally, I love him and think we need a QB in the secondary. A vocal leader, a hitter who has the jets to cover. Martin is lost. Wonder if Martin can play CB? 2 birds, one stone.

I don't think we go S in the second though. I bet we find a tackling, slowish CB and convert him. I am guessing a small school kid who has size and ran a 4.65 as a CB. THe Hurney way.

Yeah, because converting CBs to S has worked out so well for us in the past. Godfrey is still struggling to make the transition and Martin has utterly failed.

Both the Fox staff and the Rivera staff seem to love Godfrey, so obviously I'm the one missing something, but he's still out of position A LOT.

Acually Deon Sanders made the comment today that based on his drills he could not tell if he was a cb or safety.

This. Converting a CB to a safety isn't so simple. There's a lot more reads for a safety. If it was so simple, lots of great CBs would convert to safety as they lost a step, but in actuality, few do.

Never said it was simple. Said it is the Hurney way. Godfrey was a CB. I tthink Pugh played CB in college. I even think Martin did for a few games. A nickel CB has similar reads. However, edge CBs in man do not have shoulders squared to the LOS much like a safety-I get it.

I said we need a QB in the secondary, a true Free Safety who can lead. This guy seems to be capable.

I heard that. I think he meant that he would have no troubles in coverage, but I may have missed that point. I like the kid, but Mayock gets high on some players and blows theim up a bit. I doubt late first round. I see him on the board wihen we pick at 40. I would not be disappointed.

Like Harrison Smith a lot. Am hoping he is there in the second for us. Guy is a big physical inside the box LB/Safety hybrid who can cover better than folks think. I worry that the safety class is so shallow that someone is gonna grab him in the first.

He really impressed me today. His 40 was ok. The drills are where he impressed me most. His hips were so fluid and able to use his hips to turn get down field and find the ball. Really like him.

Idk what the hell I would do if I was hurney. There's so many options at the second. But so far I'm hoping we draft Harrison.

Another guy that I was high on before that impressed me further. So much so that I really want him with our first round pick. And that's Dre K. I just really like him. Matched up with Harrison smith could make a nice tandem in the secondary for years to come.

But back to Harrison. I Really like this guy

      Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄

      Panthers Wideout Retreat - TMac Vlog

      That was real fear in his eyes when the rope was being taken. My younger days, I had my best friend that happened to be black come over all the time. I had the nicest bulldog on the planet, my friend Damon was scared to death of him. His grandmother and daddy taught him to fear all dawgs and seen the same fear in his face and voice.    I think alllll young kids should take swimming lessons and not fear the water. Very thankful my parents did this, I no longer get in the ocean since its 50% sewage. But I enjoyed all the lakes, pools, and oceans I swam in.

      My personal opinion is the non-guaranteed contract is the main reason for NFL success. MLB and NBA players are on cruise control after their big contracts and it shows in the product.  NFL is each year you are fighting for your job. Same for the majority of the public.... You get lazy or try to coast after the 100+ million contract, your ass will be cut within 1-2 years. Then the next one will not even touch 100 million+. Besides a few NBA players like Kobe was coming for blood with a 300 million contract or 1 doll hair deal. Brandy Beal just reached a buyout where he was getting 110 million, many other cases..... I dare say his name for the hornets guy..... MLB sooo many times as well.    If the NFL starts fully guaranteeing all contracts, Id have a new hobby to fill the hours of entertainment NFL gave me.
