Who Were We Targeting In The 3Rd Round?

There was a lot of talk during the 2nd round about trading up to get into the 3rd Round. We were unsuccessful, but who were we targeting? Joe Adams? Frank Alexander? Someone else? Would it have been a same scenario trade, such as next year's 2nd, plus a later round this year?

I've been wondering about this because if it was one of the same players we picked up in the 4th, this could've ended badly. Makes me a little nervous, but I'm not sure what the plan was.

Has anyone heard anything about this?

I thought the team was going to do something with the Dolphins. But I don't know who was on the radar. They take what everyone thought was the obvious need in the 4th. That muddies the water for me on how they were valuing each round.

Hurney was said to be visibly upset all night Friday night. Moping around the stadium, kicking trash cans, slapping walls. He really was hoping to give away our 2nd rounder next year. I bet he wanted to get Anger

Where did you hear this?

Hurney's tendency to trade next year's pick is self perpetuating.

If he would just bite the bullet for one year he would have the pick without trading away our future. Marty, just stop already!

What make this worse is to watch well managed teams stockpile picks while we give ours away for questionable talent.

On a video posted on Panther.com Hurney said that they were trying to trade up into the 3rd for Alexander because they really liked him but thought he would be gone early in the 3rd. When they found out he wasn't going in the 3rd they changed their approach to getting two 4ths to get both Adams and Alexander.

Don't have a link as I have the Panthers iPhone app on my phone. Sorry.

come on guys........................it's coach speak.

Do you really think the Panthers wanted the headlines in the paper to read..........

"Panthers try to trade up in the 3rd for so and so but settle for Alexander in the 4th" ??

they always say who they got is who they were targeting.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
