top dawg

In the "guess what's gonna happen" thread, for lack of a better term, I have us picking Shane Ray. Gman is not passing up on a potentially great pass rusher with a high motor, provided his toe prognosis is good.

I don't think that Gman would pass up on Ray.

What is the history of accuracy of this thing? Why are y'all so interested? Don't answer that. It has to be a way to kill some time before the real thing.

Actually, Harper improved his 40 time to 4.48 at his pro day.

You're right.

Go look up Fresno St. WR, Josh Harper. He patterns his game after Antonio Brown (who was drafted in the 6th) Don't get me he needs some work, particularly at blocking, but there is definitely some potential there. He is not the biggest at 6'1" and 190-195 lbs, nor is he the fastest with a 4.52 40 time, but dude is hella quick and gets up to full speed in an instant. His quickness, hands and YAC ability cannot be denied. He has the confidence too, as he respects Davante Adams but says he can be better than his old teammate.

Sorry you feel that way. Theatre has to condense many of life's issues in order to meet time constraints, so in real life problems are not solved by "daddy talks" in 20 minutes, but they may be solved by many "daddy and mommy" talks over time. Nothing is 100 percent, and children will have to learn things on their own, but the fundamentals of common decency, courtesy and respect can be learned by most children when they are young.

Which is what a lot of people don't realize apparently. In these instances, the bench trial is essentially a test as to whether or not there is enough evidence for it to be considered by a jury, not saying that the judge doesn't believe the defendant isn't guilty. As for judges being super smart, they are. Some of them are too smart for their own good. I was in law school for roughly a year before I decided that it wasn't my cup of tea (yeah that year cost me a lot of unnecessary money). There was a saying that A students were future professors, the B students future judges, and the C students your average lawyer.

Full House?

He called Hardy a "wife beater". LOL I guess he didn't think that was too funny.

For me, the fact that Hardy is a pro football player really doesn't have anything to do with it. History of both the parties involved, and the nebulous facts of the circumstances are more important to me. I understand why you would take a judge's point of view, or the NFL's point of view, but forgive me if I don't particularly trust either. I am sure that due to my life experience, I see things from a whole different perspective than many of you. Just like Hardy loses your benefit of doubt, I have doubt about Nicole Holder. I don't see how anyone doesn't have some doubt about both parties, but that's just me. That being the case, I am not going to view Hardy as the devil, and Holder as an angel. As far as run-ins with the law, Holder had a history prior to the incident, and I don't believe that Hardy did. I think that you can chalk the entire situation up to stupidity. By the way, it would be highly unlikely that the Panthers viewed anything as any pics were always officially property of the court. Both the NFL, court officials and the Panthers would have had to break the law.

Easy to think on the surface, but then you have to ask yourself why the police didn't take Hardy to jail if Holder looked that bad. The easy answer is that she didn't. In the state of North Carolina, they will take a person to jail for domestic violence. Both Hardy and Holder could have easily been arrested. I know a couple that has been arrested for less.

It was 296 yards, and those two scores were exciting. And to be fair, he only sucks at the primary job that he had last year.

Funny. You know that comment caught my eye. No wrath though. All I can say is to each his own. Not really concerned with Nicks. He made his bed by not working things out last year in Charlotte. Brown doesn't have to worry about Nicks either, but he had better be worried about keeping his roster spot against the likes of Jarrett Boykin and Stephen Hill one of which who has displayed more practical skills and production during games, and the other with pedestrian numbers but much better measurables. I am giving Brown the benefit of the doubt that he is ahead of the likes of Mike Brown, Marcus Lucas, Deandre Presley and (Cam favorite) Brenton Bersin, but maybe not by much (especially Berse). Personally, I want a couple of more young play makers who are more polished, complete, and with more upside than Nicks, Brown and any of them, but we will how that's looking around this time next week.

I know that you're trying to be funny, but nope. I've always believed that you can talk things out 90 something percent of the time. Children are just little people who need direction. Corporal punishment is largely unnecessary, if necessary at all. I am more Dr. Spock than Adrian Peterson.

Whatever the fug that is

No, he might want to shove his tongue up Holder's taint like you do.

And yes, I am an excellent parent. So much so that others have entrusted their sons to me over the years. I would have loved to get my hands on Hardy when he was coming up.

If you could just extend that same grace and/or spirit to Hardy that you obviously do unconditionally for Holder, then we wouldn't have anything to argue about.

Sipe did all he could. You can't blame the Browns' inability to get over the hump on him. Sipe and Kosar would definitely be in the top half of the league today.

Well I certainly hope they're better daughters than Nicole Holder.

I agree about KB, but where I apparently disagree with many of you is that we need to upgrade the position as a whole. We need to raise our floor. Let me say it again: We need to raise our floor...And if we raise our ceiling at the same time, I certainly won't cry about it. Moreover, by raising our floor, that inherently means that we are adding better quality depth. Perhaps we will have a better wide receiving corps If we do this, one with noticeably better upside and looks more akin to an NFL corps than a glorified CFL corps. Now granted, maybe someone rises from the PS. I hope so. But, even still, if we don't draft a couple of potential play makers in this year's draft at wide receiver---at least one early, and one in the mid rounds---I will be disappointed. It's the same old thing with us, and has been for arguably the lion's share of the last decade, we are essentially one play maker at receiver away from disaster. You may think that "disaster" is hyperbole, so I will replace it with "mediocrity". If Cotchery or Brown or Boykin are our failsafes in the event that KB and/or a presumed WR1/2 gets hurt for any appreciable amount of time, then we won't get into the dance. We may be on the outside looking in over the shoulder of the Star-esque bouncer, but we we will not get in. We need to raise our floor.

How dare you bring up issues that impute that poor, innocent girl's testimony. Don't you realize that facts that speak to Nicole Holder's psychopathic behavior are not welcome on the Huddle? Hardy beat the poo out of that angel with her own halo, and then scratched her from head to toe with his pitchfork and horns for the pure hell of it.

Thanks. Actually I have two. Here is an Easter pic of them with a couple of my newphews. I dont upload attachments too much, so sorry if it's kind of small, but that's probably all the Huddle needs to see. Well, I guess it's not so small when you click it. I could have uploaded bikini pics, but this place ain't ready for that.

Are you suggesting that Cam doesn't need more offensive weapons? If so, history and a lot of people that know football say otherwise. More weapons on defense and offense are not mutually exclusive. In fact, anyone should desire both. Balance across the board is the bigger picture.
