Impact of Jackson on Panthers draft

I worried about that, but I think Chip is so arrogant and cocky with his offense that he won't invest a first in it. They need D, and he knows that, so I see them going with defense in the first. Chip even said "we'll be fine with or without Jackson." He's an idiot. Anyone remember when he said "time of possession does not matter at all in any level of football"? I wonder if he remembered that after the Saints beat them by controlling the clock...

Chip Kelly thinks his offense is more scheme oriented and less athlete specific. My guess is he believes (and we'll see) that he can replace DJ with a lower round draft choice. Philly is really in need of defense and I would expect them to go on that side. Where it may effect us is if a team which would have gone WR @1 signs him. It might actually push Cooks down since one less team in front of us would need a WR.

But the Eagles were 28th in time of possession and won their division.

Which is why us not pursuing Jackson is so stupid. We have to protect ourselves and we need an explosive, playmaking reciever.

But, it's okay... Jedi Gettleman will use the force again to find the next Victor Cruz walking the streets.

Please Proudiddy for the sake of your online family and those of us that enjoy your message board company, let the Gettlehate go.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
