Claiborn In Town For Vist With Panthers Today

He has a disability.

And on top of that the Wonderlic has no correlation to success in the NFL except in two positions: TE and DB. Did I mention that the correlation is a negative one, meaning the lower the score on the Wonderlic, the more successful the person is in the NFL?

Revis scored a 10.

Did you just imply that Claiborne's Wonderlic score correlates to him being the best cornerback in the NFL... ever...

The best case scenario is for the Browns to take either Blackmon or Tannehill:

1. Colts: Andrew Luck

2. Redskins: Robert Griffin III

3. Vikings: Matt Kalil

4. Browns: Justin Blackmon

5. Bucs: Trent Richardson

6. Rams: Michael Floyd

7. Jags: Riley Reiff/Melvin Ingram/Quinton Coples

8. Dolphins: Ryan Tannehill

9. Panthers: Morris Claiborne

But yeah, there are a number of different scenarios you can run here. The Browns and Jags are the key, IMO. The good news is both teams badly need offensive players a lot more than defensive players.

learning disabilities are a bitch.. I deal with one every day.

on a positive note, football requires you to be instinctive and requires more visual than verbal skills out on the field, see things develop and react.. if he was trying to become a CPA, that might be a bitch of a career move...

it may take him time to internalize the playbook, taking verbal aspects and digesting them visually, but once that occurs he shouldn't have any problems.. his visual IQ likely has adapted more than the average person.

so his goal is to be in the NFL, not an engineer, and because he put in work and focused on his goal instead of some random ass job that has nothing to do with this conversation, he must be lazy.

that makes total sense. gotcha.

he is a very good player and not the first to bomb the test. He may be a great player for us.

LD or no LD, there are measures people with LD's can take once they get some disposable income. We will see just how much it matters to him as he will get paid a pretty penny this summer.

I will revise what I meant, hes not stupid because of a wonderlic test score, hes stupid for wasting his opportunity at a higher education.

college isn't for everybody.. more so for guys who are about to make millions.. you can speculate further, but it hardly means anything when the guy is going to succeed doing what he loves, instead of making outsiders feel good because they buy into "higher education" is the end all/be all in life..

    • I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!
    • Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce. 
    • Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
