This was during the full 11 on 11 drill with Derek Anderson in at QB.

Williams on a nice crossing route over the middle. Finds a nice soft spot in the zone between safeties Campbell and Nak. Anderson gets him the ball. Notice him catching with his hands, not his body. In the last frame Nak pretty late to the party. Probably a good thing for Nak it wasn't full contact, or I have a feeling he would have lost that battle.

 

If Brandon can find the open spot up the middle against zone defenses and make the grab.... well... I get a chubby.

Can someone talk me down from the irrational hate I have everytime I see nakumura?

 

Its not irrational, he flat out blew games for us last year.  The coolest thing he did was when he Judo Threw a Saints player on the ground after the dude was getting chippy after the whistle.

 

I'd love Nak to stick around as a ST guy, but his ball skills are just not suited for modern NFL offenses.

Oh man I wish Williams just lowered his shoulder and popped Nak.

Williams has been out of football for a while and it is going to be scary when he gets more and more comfortable every day. Really pulling for this kid to stick with this team and make an impact. If he blossomed into a legit weapon that would allow us to bypass drafting another TE and we could draft something like: Tackle, Reciever, Safety/Corner, Guard next draft which would greatly improve this offense.

      Panthers OLB Pat Jones II makes bold claim about team's defense

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.

      We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.

      I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
