Saw it on twitter, don't know how to post link. Also listed rams,cowboys and patriots as having interest as well. I have thought all along he would be the best pick, kind of gave up hope after reports of him falling, but I'd be ecstatic if we trade down and take him.

Hell I'd be happy with him at 9 if we have to

I don't know if I could get behind this at number 9. He's probably the most gifted cover corner in the draft but he's a knucklehead. I'm not sure you take a flier on a knucklehead at number 9.

I would, however, love to see us pick him up in the 2nd or after a significant trade down to pick up additional 2nd or 3rd round choices.

Scott Wright is knowledgeable and usually spot on with his mock drafts and he has Janoris all the way down at the end of the 2nd.

If the Panthers feel comfortable with him then select him. He seems to be saying all the right things and this past year is a good sign that he is working hard to change the perception of him. The ability is there.

Man id cringe taking him..

But really really hopeful he would just become hit with a book to the head and make great choices..

Because he is Awesome!! I see him as a young Asante Samuel and even Revis quality guy..because he mirrors the wr well at the line and still can stay with the elite guys.

i love Gilmore but early he is not agressive..not unlike Gamble. Gilmore can recover and track a deep ball and is quick to read a play for an above average tackle.

This draft is deep with corners and wrs, If we don't get the guy we really want in the top 10 like Blackmon or Claiborne then I wouldn't reach for anyone else. There will be guys who are good further down the line. Plus we still have Hogan who was a fourth rounder because of knee issues who was originally projected as a 2nd rounder last year.

SI's Peter King doesn't anticipate North Alabama CB

Janoris Jenkins

going in the first round, but he does name five teams that might be "tempted" to select Jenkins, perhaps if he falls into the second.

Panthers are one of them, and chill out; it's in the second.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
