There a couple guys that may fall in the draft due to injuries. Would one of these guys be worth stashing on the roster?

 

Brandon Thomas OL Clemson  ACL

Anthony Sheen OL Alabama  Torn Labrum 

James Hurst OL UNC  Broken Fibula (Non displaced which makes rehab very straight forward)

Vinnie Sunseri S Alabama  ACL but ran a 4.48 at pro day

Brent Urban DL Virginia  High ankle sprain 

 

I think it would be worth stashing someone if we can get them in later rounds..... after 4th round and they have starting potential

In Brandon Thomas, you might want to look at very late.  He can probably start in 2015, but remember he just got injured a couple weeks ago, so he could still have trouble being effective in the 2015.  I look at someone like SF, who has a dozen picks to be able to take a flyer on several guys

 

Steen and Hursts' injuries are less severe and could contribute this coming season.

 

Would not guess where we might want to take these guys

 

Would not waste a pick on the last two guys, that is just me however.

Rich are getting richer! Luckily this year draft is pretty unique with a lot of depth at QB, WR, OT, CB, LB, OG,..etc. With the help of the coaches, scouts, & Gettleman we should get quality players from all 7 rounds.

i would not be opposed to taking Hurst, or Thomas in the 4th or 5th round. Hurst expectations would be to compete for a starting spot on the OL, while the panthers could give Thomas the Kugbila treatment of sitting on IR for a year, so he could get healthy.

This almost reeks of Hurney, except he drafted players on the operating table too early (Stewart in the first, Hogan in the fourth)

 

Brandon Thomas:  I never understood why a personal workout was necessary.  They have hours of game film, the combine, and the pro day.  Still, I would consider him in the fifth round.

 

I would celebrate if we took Hurst in the third round.

I want Hurst and Sunseri...badly.

 

I read scouting reports on Sunseri trying to see why some Huddlers mention him so much (other than the obvious), and I wasn't blown away by what I was reading. 

 

He may be worth a look in a late round.

I would add Antone Exum, CB, Virginia Tech, to that list (ACL).

I like Thomas, Sheen, and Hurst very much.  If they're still sitting their in the 5th-6th round, take'em IMO.  I think Sunseri is a pretty smart player too and wouldn't have my feelings hurt if we spent a 7th on him.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.

      Good response. In reference to your second paragraph, many Huddlers are just haters when it comes to certain people.
