The point is I think linebacker is a bigger need than originally speculated by most on this board and front office knows this. I really think kuechly would be a very safe pick. A lot of people have said that it's a bad idea because it would be three first on a linebacker in 7 years. That's what people in economics call sunk cost. You don't make decisions based on that. People also say he would be a reach at 9. Not according to bill Walsh. Just saying.

lol if you think beason and davis can be categorized as "sunk costs" than you don't know what a sunk cost is

Luke has always been viewed as best all around LB. as 55 said, maybe an arguement could be made If you limited it just OLB. Luke is like a Beason or Willis of prior drafts in they are good enough to play multiple roles as a LB and aren't limited as a one trick pony.

But there isn't a head and shoulder best DT. Which was the claim. Deep class. If people are willing to put Poe temp in the drivers seat that should be a good indication of no one standing out

There is now maybe get your head out your ass you would notice that Cox has risen on some boards over Blackmon. Team are talking about trading up to get Cox what other DT are people doing that for?

No Kuechly was the best ILB but Zac Brown was the best overall before the Combine. Then Kuechly put up good # at the Combine and Became the best overall.

The point still remains just because a player wasn't consider the best at his position from the start of the draft Process doesn't mean he's not the best Prospect.

Wrong again but I am not going to go back and forth. If anything you have shown you argue forever whether you are right or wrong and never change your mind regardless of the facts so it is a waste of time. In a few days we can debate about who we got instead of who we should have gotten or who sucks or is great. I can wait.

All I know is.....people need to accept Luke is a logical possibility. There are several. I can accept Cox. I just won't expect to see him contribute much in 2012. We still need starting competition at LB and CB. Best odds are finding that in the first 2 rounds.

Comparing pro stats in a 16 game season to college stats makes no sense at all. Comparing stats from college to college does when they played the same system. So why not put them out there. Oh because Beason doesn't have anything close to Kuechly. Want to compare combine measurables?? Again Beason lags.

Drop the argument. You have no leg to stand on and it makes no sense to compare the 2 anyway.

beason didn't participate in all the drills because of a bum knee at the time

You and Cra never admit you're wrong either. Like I said people had ? about Kuechly speed and athleticism before the Combine. Zac Brown was consider the best LB before the Combine.

I do. You didn't understand my post. The first round pics used to select them are sunk cost. They themselves are assets. Questionable ones. Not investing in something because you have before is a bad investment practice.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
