2014 NFL Mock Draft: Projecting Ideal Selections for Every 1st-Round Team By

(Featured Columnist) on January 17, 2014

 

28. Carolina Panthers: Calvin Pryor, S, Louisville

Carolina's front seven masked a weak secondary this past season, but the 49ers were able to exploit it in the divisional round of the playoffs. Adding a do-it-all safety like Calvin Pryor out of Louisville would turn this weak unit into another strength for the Panthers.

I think late 1st round to very early 2nd is the range Pryor should go. Even with our offensive needs, it wouldn't surprise me if Gettleman would go BPA and end up with either WR, OT, TE, S, CB or even DE if Hardy is gone. I also wouldn't be surprised to see Pryor jump Clinton-Dix and pull an Eric Reid and go higher than predicted.

I really like Pryor and having been studying him for about the last two weeks. Here are my observations so far

 

1. Great build( I think he's bigger than 208). He's also a big hitter.  Duh...

2. Sure tackler, not just a big hit guy. When he gets ahold of you, you go down.

3. Excellent read and react player in the run game.  Finds a alley and fills it, doesn't get fooled often. 

4. Very good speed for a big guy. Is involved in almost every play(ie Rutgers), and can close on passes quick when he zeros in

5. My only concern would be coverage. He either lined up 20 yds deep or blitzed from the slot. From what I've seen he did well, but got "grabby" at times

 

Safety is about 4th on my list of needs , but I would still go to sleep happy day one based upon everything I've seen(still a while from the draft obviously) so far.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By hepcat · Posted

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
