Great article about a kid that sounds very excited and fortunate to play here. I like the pick more and more.

I really think this was a great draft. We've got to see how they all play out, but I think we got great value for our picks throughout the entire draft. More than this, I think we got a lot of high character guys who fit our system well.

Great story, thanks for posting!

More than this, I think we got a lot of high character guys who fit our system well.

I think so too. I love tough, smashmouth type guys like this kid. They have a bunch on O, and a few on D. I honestly think the offense was "tougher" for the most part than the defense was last year.

Not sure what Meeks will do. Indy didn't have a tough D when he was there they had an athletic fast one. BUT...it's worth noting that with the departure of Dungy, the Colts seem to be drafting bigger guys on D. Heck they signed Seward, a LB who could have been a DL for Indy size wise when Dungy was there. This seems to suggest that the athletic makeup of that defense in Indy was weighted more heavily on what Dungy wanted. I think Meeks will want more athleticism but I don't think it will be to the extent Dungy valued it as far as going more towards speedy over size. That hurt them on run D BIG TIME.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
