Joe Person Says "draft Is Shaping Up" (Lol)


top dawg

Recommended Posts

The top five suspects, in no particular order, are Fletcher Cox, Quinton Coples, Melvin Ingram, Kendall Wright, and (OMFG) Luke Kuechly.

Forget about Morris Claiborne and Justin Blackmon because they'll be off the board.

But, we could also maybe get Michael Brockers, Dontari Poe (Mel Kipers, guess), Michael Floyd, Stephon Gilmore (a possible reach), or David Decastro (If we trade down).

Now before you guys say something sarcastic, remember that Person is writing for the general populace.

It would appear that as the an inferior site suggested, WR is not necessarily taking a backseat to DT and LB in the minds of the FO. Basically, it looks like the wait-and-see, open-minded approach that has become characteristic of Marty Hurney's tenure. It's just that now we have Ron Rivera throwing in a little bit of creativity. Can't wait to see what happens.

I thought Hurney said he wanted a safe pick?? Since when is receiver a safe pick in the first round for us?? We have taken 1 in our history, Rae Carruth.

Just sayin....................

Since when have we already had a great Qb to get them the ball along with a top ranked dynamic offense?? Just throwing that out there.

Since we drafted Cam Newton?

I thought the point of having a great quarterback was so they could elevate everyone around them and make average receivers good and good receivers great. If Newton is all that he should be like Brees or Brady who can make low round draft picks into pro-bowl players. Any quarterback can do well with a top 10 wide receiver. Great quarterbacks take the Welkers who was undrafted or the Colstons drafted in the seventh and make them look great. Smith was a third rounder. Seems to me that wide receiver is definitely one of the spots where there is more value in later rounds than there is in the first.

    • I see them using Brooks in the passing game a good bit even early.  
    • If Brooks is fully healed,and they think he is, then we should be better.  We upgraded center and Hunt will be back.   At RB, Rico will turn 28 next month. Hubbard turns 27 next month.  Brooks turns 23 in July.  If Brooks pans out, he was a better college RB than either Rico or Chuba. He has not been taking a beating for 2 years--so if the knee holds, we could have something.   This is what it says about RB: Career Average: Running backs have the shortest average careers in the NFL, lasting just 2.57 years on average. The Peak: Most running backs reach their absolute peak performance around age 25 or 26, with nearly all peak seasons occurring before age 29. The "Age 28-29" Cliff: Statistical data shows a notable 15% to 25% drop in per-game fantasy and offensive production as backs transition from their age-28 to age-29 seasons. Very few running backs sustain elite production past age 30.
    • I’ll give him that. I love his belief in the trenches being where games are decided. Because that is also my belief.  And he is not fooling around he jumps all over a goal. Fix the OL. Well it cost but he fixed it.  And fixed it again this year while still getting pieces for the defense.  He has made a couple of mistakes but just keeps swinging after a miss until he gets something done.
