We Are Only Getting One Good D Player In The Draft

No stud DT's or DE's in the second round, I'm sorry but there wasn't. There was some decent guys there but nothing like what Silatolu will be at LG for the Panther's the next 10 years. He did have a first round grade for a reason.

BS

Still, Worthy, and Curry are studs!

OG is not crucial position. UDFA can come in and play more than serviceable.

I see injury prone, and inconsistent. Curry would've been alright, wasn't first round talent at 40 though.

moreso than Hurney, I think if Rivera feels good about where we are on defense with getting our guys back from IR, I trust him. When/if we suck hard on that side of the ball next year, thats when I will meltdown.

More protection for Cam....a big nasty angry Samoan at that......not really something to get upset about ...LOL

Well never know for sure but I think Jenkins would have been the pick at 40 if the Rams didn't snag him one spot earlier. After that I didn't see any stud CB when they picked in the 2nd and there were no stud DT or DE in this entire draft IMO.

go watch the Hurney/Rivera presser regarding the 2nd round pick and he says that they targeted him all along. He was one of the 30 visits and they loved his attitude, physical tools, and felt good about what he can bring to the table from day 1.

Hurney was asked about Jenkins and he said nope. Maybe he is bluffing, but I think they feel good about this.

If that's how you want to think about OG, then lol. Just take a look at NO and what they had going with just meh OT's and two stud OG's. That's how important a really good G is to a online. Silatolu is that guy, he's got Pro bowl potential at a need position and yest OG was a need, the Panther's didn't have but 1 decent starter at OG and needed another one.

Still, Worthy and Curry were all projects that wouldn't have made an impact this season for the Panther's they wouldn't have started over McClain or Hardy. That's just a fact, if you don't see that I'm sorry.

Considering the hole at guard, I would rather the Panthers protect Cam considering he is their most important player. Both players the Panthers got have a good chance at contributing right away or at least before the season is over. It's not like drafted players hoping they can be backups.

You're an awesome fan bro keep up the good work!

How can anyone be "pissed" about the draft? You think you know more than our coach?

All I know is we were piss poor in coverage last year. Piss poor in pass rush. Piss poor at stopping the run.

You guys have more faith than me. I dont think getting back two players is gonna solve all that.

    • Having trouble finding all these articles saying the Raiders withheld information. Here’s the latest from Crosby’s surgeon: ElAttrache told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning that Crosby was "doing very well in the early part of his rehab and recovery from surgery to treat a significant meniscus tear and the related stress injury to the bone and cartilage in his knee. He is certainly on track in his planned program." "We truly respect the work of the Ravens' staff with Maxx regarding the contract physical exam. We also understand the challenge the staff faces when tasked to provide a future risk assessment based on an evaluation early in the recovery process," ElAttrache said. "This is especially challenging when dealing with an elite player like Maxx considering the level of commitment necessary for a team to obtain him. The timing of this assessment is unfortunate because the apparent risk will lessen as his recovery progresses and his return to performance over the next few months becomes clear."     So the Ravens excuse is the future risk assessment based on the physical, not that the Raiders withheld information. They found an excuse to save face publicly. They had the right to cancel the trade for no reason at all, but they’re trying to save face with the most acceptable reasoning they can find. I’ve heard and seen the Ravens getting dragged everywhere for this. You know what would be an easy way to put a stop to that if you’re the Ravens and the Raiders were actually the shady ones withholding information? Just come out and say that you were not given all the medical information. But they aren’t saying that. I guess they’re just taking the bullet for the Raiders just because?    Speculation indeed.
    • Two first round picks for a guy with very questionable knees who will be 29 this summer. Yes it is safe to say the Ravens got cold feet.
    • The salary cap is the reason we got Phillips and Lloyd
