Today Rivera and Hurney traveled to Chapel Hill for a 2nd meeting with QC. I wouldn't read too much in to this except this is the same thing they did with Cam right before the draft last year. I think if Coples plays up to the potential that Rivera normally demands/gets he can be a JPP type game changer, and that has me excited. I still think Cox would be the safer pick, but I think all of us as well as our FO is starting to get the feeling he will be gone before we pick. Not that I don't realize the concern with QC, however their is no doubt he is loaded with talent(not Peppers/Suh once in a lifetime talent, but pro bowl game changing Richard Seymor/JPP talent) if he lives up to the potential. All this meeting does is make me praise the football gods that we might not take Luke K who is a very good prospect we don't need!: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/04/24/panthers-brass-met-with-quinton-coples-on-monday/

Been on the Coples train for a while. People don't understand that good defense in today's NFL isn't elite CB play, it's pass rush. Ask me if I'd rather have a Revis/Asomugha tandem or Jason Pierre-Paul/Jared Allen combo, I'd take the latter any day. I'd be happy with Cox, Coples or Ingram at this point.

Great...

He might have been playing "not to get hurt" at UNC, but what does that say about someone in a contract year for us. You play to win the game. If you're thinking about something else, you're not thinking about making the play.

I really do not want his motor looming over his time playing for us and looking like a Peppers sometimes.

I would be ok with this pick. If Rivera sees him planning out I trust him. Dude has a load of potential.

So what if Rivera think Kuechly is the best pick? Are you still behind him or does it depend on who he wants???? Either Rivera knows what he is talking about or he doesn't. What is it????

Yep if Kuechly is the pick I will stand behind him. I have my own opinions but Im not going to go off the deep end like you and CRA do about who you want. I have given credit to Kuechly where it is due but I dont ignore his shortcoming either.

Don't go speaking for me. I have already said I don't expect us to draft Kuechly. I think it will be Cox if he is there or Coples if he isn't which assumes we don't trade down or go offense. I have also not been as negative to any player as you have been toward Kuechly so step away from the edge before accusing any else of going off the deep end. As for being objective about Kuechly, that is pretty funny...... I only joined the Kuechly bandwagon to defend him from all the ridiculous and unwarranted attacks I saw from posters like you. I was on the Coples and Poe bandwagons before the whole Kuechly debates began.

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
