Gettlemen Combine interview

[davos]

I watch his interview and Gettleman just gives me a ton of confidence in building a perennial playoff team.  

 

I just wonder which prospects are going to jump out to our staff this year.  

[Fox007]

And the answer is never on your fuging roster. Thinking it is, is the reason 12-4 teams go 7-9 the next year.

 

The Answer was always on Hurneys roster until he got canned so....

 

AE, Gattis, etc weren't the answer at WR and sorry but if King or McNutt were they would have contributed here or somewhere else before we picked them up out of the garbage.

[pantherclaw]

not all high picks, but they have invested in the WR position with numerous high picks.3rd or higher.

the panthers have invested with numerous mid picks also.

Just cause thise investmemts haven't worked out, doesn't change the fact.

[pantherclaw]

No way was Kugbila the BPA during our 4th round .

according to who? You?

I bet you every huddler can do a draft board, and not one huddler would get their board the same as Gman and company.

They were buried on the depth chart in Denver and I forget the other team. But still it's not something to rely on. I've said from after last years draft that this was the year we get cam weapons.

Personally I want one if those big blocking/pass catching te's. Helps oline and receiving. I will be stunned if we don't draft a wr in the first three rounds or don't sign a legitimate weapon.

[pantherclaw]

Im going to be fuging pissed if we don't weapons next year. Exactly how teams fuging regress.

I can already tell you'll be pissed no matter what he does.

We'll see, but it's been said and done here before(the whole WR is on the roster bs)

 

Gettlemen is a real GM though and he's had one good off-season in his lone year so there is no reason not to trust him, I just don't like hearing that when its almost never true when you have as big of a WR deficiency as we do.

[Kuech the Sneak]

The gross situation is troubling, this draft is gonna be really interesting because we can go so many different ways

[pantherclaw]

receivers just don't come out of college playing lights out.

most receivers in the league all develop from somebody's roster. So yes the answer is on the roster but you also never stop looking for another possible answer if its available somewhere else.

The guy was/is extremely raw and didn't play division I football. Every single analyst was shocked that he was selected where he was. He didn't get on the field and is now a year behind in his development compared to almost every guy selected in that round last year. Some of those guys drafted right after him were starters and played quite well this past season. Throw in guys that played well on teams drafted in the 5th-7th rounds... and I have a hard time believing he was 100% the BPA. Now, based on potential alone, he could have been. But based on his resume and what he did in college; doubtful. 

 

Let's hear your argument that he was best player available at the 108th overall pick. 

[pantherclaw]

analysts are analysts for a reason.

If you want me to come up with a reason that someone in the media supported, you'll be disappointed.

What you are failing to understand, is he was BPA on the Panthers big draft board.

That's the bottom line.

Doesn't matter what you and I think.

[Jackofalltrades]

Yeah, Seattle was loaded with weapons...

I think his point was that we don't know what Gettleman's draft board look like(at least I hope it is) 

 

It is quite possible he was BPA on our board. Because most people(including myself) don't see how he was BPA at that pick, that doesn't actually mean he wasn't on the Panther's board.

[heel31ok]

I agree with it, games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage. Doesn't matter how many receivers you have if you're running for your life and there's no run game.

 absolutely, it makes our whole offense much better.But nothing wrong with adding weapons along with the big guys. this draft is shaping up to do both and with the x factor of FA we could upgrade the whole team exponentially. now imagine Stew recovering...hmmm
