Found in a draft profile in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel online:

http://m.jsonline.com/sports/packers/draftcaps20-vn4vq5d-148210085.html

"He's better than his brother," said Don Gregory, the Panthers' director of college scouting. "He's bigger, faster, stronger than his brother. He's so athletic. He will be a 10-year pro and protect your (expletive) out at left tackle."

He may (or may not) be right, but still...

I don't really expect Ryan to be majorly offended or anything, but this is the kind of thing that's a little surprising to hear from someone associated with the team.

Maybe this illustrates why scouts usually make their comments anonymously.

I don't think that is any kind of surprise or bold statement is it?

Matt is considered the best LT prospect in a number of years.

I don't think its weird either.

He is suppose to be an Elite LT.

Sooooooo why would he even say that.

Its like saying, Ronde Barber is a better CB than Tiki is a RB. Who the freak cares about comparing when they dont play the same position.

Seeing that quote out of context is the issue I think. I'd guess he is saying that as good as Ryan is, Matt could be better relative to their respective positions.

I'm sure the quote was a response to a specific question about the two.

Im still hopin that the rumors of MIN & STL wanting somebody different come true. I know its an extremely long shot, the odds are very low, but Im watchin the draft hopin he falls to 9 so I can cuss up a storm when we dont take him...I know it aint going to happen, but whats the point if I cant hope in all this bullshit pre-draft speculatin?

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
