I can't believe we wasted a 3rd rounder on this guy. He was a projected 5-6th rounder.

Yeah...I think you have mentioned that about 57 times since draft day. I don't care what you say though, I'm giving the guy the benefit of the doubt until he proves to me that he can't play in the NFL.

I don't care what you say either. I'm not going to give him the benefit of the doubt. He has to show he was worth that pick.

For those of you with ESPNU, they're showing Alabama vs Georgia at midnight. It's from last season, so it's one of the few chances any of us will have to get a look at Corvey Irvin for a whole game.

I remember that game. Georgia's defense didn't really show at all, until the second half. They were down 31-0 at halftime.

That's your prerogative, but I know for a fact that the group of men that drafted the guy have about 100 more years of combined experience at this sort of thing than you and I do, therefore the guy deserves the benefit of the doubt in my book. Besides that, I just don't see the sense in bitching about it until he's proven himself one way or the other.

Nobody is bitching about anything. Just commenting on the subject.

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.

      I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
