(Sure, I know there's an old thread about Vaccaro, but Im not going to use the "search button" and I dont care.)

I have seen very little of Vaccaro's college career, but have only heard good things about the kid. I have heard that he's one of the better cover guy in the upcoming draft and can cover almost anyone. "CBSsports" is a source that I like to use and trust. I just got done checking and they have this kid listed as their no.9 overall on their big board right behind Star. How good is this kid????

FS is a really big need but I dont think anyone on this forum would want to take one over an OL/DL. Though, last year Rivera did have Barron ranked higher than Kuechly and saw that FS was a huge need. If Kenny is a notch better than Barron, do we take him at 14 as BPA?

Your thoughts?

Nah. This year we have a football guy making the decision (not Hurney). One that knows the value of the big guys. Even if Vaccaro is better than Barron I'd rather the first (if not first two) pick be a trench player. I don't know much about him either, but even if Eric Berry was in this draft I'd still rather we spend the pick on someone over 300 lbs.

i think he is a decent prospect, and he has shown the ability to cover guys in the slot and TEs as well as play the deep center fielder. my knock on him is he can over pursue plays which allows him to take bad angles on open field tackles. seen some players stick their foot in the ground and make him miss on several acsions.

If we take a DT in the 1st and there was a clear BPA Safety available in the 2nd I wouldn't mind it though. Would still prefer a WR or OL, but we do probably need a Safety. To be honest, I'd love Rambo in the 4th.

Yea I agree.

I was just surprised by how high cbs had him ranked.

I also love the idea of building the trenches. Especially someone on the Dline.

Even though Vaccaro is listed very high on their board, Im not sure if he'll be taken that high. He may even fall into the 2nd where I would grab him in a heart beat.

If we could grab Rambo in the 4th, Id be very very happy.

      Bryce Young Is Terrible

      By d-dave · Posted

      Terrible?  No doubt he was Sunday.  Will he ever get gud?  No clue. Listening the Panther's Playbook (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3K8QW-k4du0) the guys made an excellent point:  there is no trust. Bryce isn't trusting his line, WRs or the system.  That's not good at all.  When Bryce has trust, we see what happened after the bye last year.  The biggest question is "where did the trust go?" That's something that Canales and Co. need to figure out ASAP.  Look, I think Bryce is a nice guy, and I'm glad he's generationally wealthy.  But I want my Panthers to succeed.  If he's the guy to do it, great.  If not, be the guy we need to help us get that top 5 pick.

      I'm surprised by the grades for Turk + Moehrig because during the game they seemed to always be in on a tackle before Turk left the game. Bryce's grade surprises me as well, but seeing some PBLK grades... Corbett - 27.7 Nijman - 38.4 Chuba - 27.1 Dowdle - 14.0 Thank goodness for the guards and TMo. TEs did okay in PBLK as well, but their RBLK grades were horrible (Tremble 34.5, JT0 56.4). TMo had a rough RBLK grade as well (48.8).

      Solid is stretching it.  Rozeboom frustrated the hell out of Rams fans.  Not as bad as Reeder, but close.  LB was a known issue going into this week and it showed in a huge way.  And Wallace was a high ceiling but super raw LB prospect.   Moehrig's slipups were surprising.   But yeah, Evero's playcalling and personnel deployment is super annoying.  He likes playing light in the box which is nonsense given who we brought into our front-7.
