Really, they did. Have any of you?

The interwebz is such an easy place to throw out your two-penny opinions with NO REPROCUSSIONS. Sure, if you believe you are smarter or know more about 1) the health and structure of our team and 2) individual workouts, interviews and vast game tape of players in the this draft than the guys working and making decisions... well I don't even really know how to respond to that other than calling you a fool. That is all. A+ first round pick for our Carolina Panthers.

I agree that no one here knows enough to pretend that they know more than the FO but a lot of people called the Jarrett pick an A+ and there's no doubt that the staff did their due diligence before picking him. It looks like a great pick now but they aren't perfect and it could end up being a terrible pick when it's all said and done.

The debate isn't (for the most part) whether Kuechly is a great prospect or not. The debate is whether we should have gone for another position given our needs and current roster.

It's like me coming home to my wife with a sack of organic high quality potatoes that are potentially the best potatoes ever eaten by a person, and she responds with "well we've already got some two sacks of potatoes right here, and I sent you to store to buy butter jackass!"

People that are upset don't care how good a potato Kuechly is. They wanted some damn butter.

Really good potatoes and really good butter are even better together.

I understand people getting upset that we didn't pick a player that they wanted. But that is their opinion. They might as well ask your best friend what is best for your wife. He doesn't have any idea. Hell, his answer might not be favorable to you.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan

      Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.

      I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
