Oh shiite! He has the best defensive highlight reel I've seen in a while. He can rush, cover and crush the run. Love his ability to beat and avoid blocks. I may have to go watch a few Alabama games and pay attention to him. Position aside, he just might be the best defensive player in the draft! That's why Hurney was so good in the first round. He just picked the best football player - period.

Right. He isn't a conventional TE. He's more of a Taysom Hill. Which could be particularly useful in short yardage situations when your QB is 5'10" and 180 lbs.

Normally I'd agree with this, but the talent gap was on all levels. Dline was decimated when D.Brown went down. He's the core to that unit. I think the new additons take a lot of pressure off of him going forward. Hopefully his snap count decreases like 25%. Crumedy was a 6th round rookie and should have only been getting spot play at best. Like 5-7 snaps a game. Started a rookie at ILB that was a project and never expected to be a starter last season. And the safeties were just horrible in coverage. Woods was a decent tackler, but Fuller and Scott were bad. Real bad. I'm 50 and need a left knee replacement, and could probably still shake them in the open field.

All I know is Jefferson and Chase are well known as big film watchers. If Tet doesn't study film now, he's gonna have to learn to.

Eventual replacement for an aging Thielen? That's all I got. Doesn't make much sense for next season though.

He was a Clemson Tiger. He ain't coming here.

Yep. This draft is deep at slot receivers too. I honestly think that's a bigger need than an outside guy.

Smoke screen. Carolina does not sign Clemson Tigers bro. Isn't Hunter from SC? Maybe he was just stopping by on his way home.

I think they almost have to. There will be quality backup/developmental guys available after the 3rd round.

Well shiite fellas! I think we have ourselves a player. Dude is dog-walking olinemen into the QB! Very different from what we've seen from Shy. Hopefully Shy is motiviated this year because he wasn't this bad before. Never really a pass rusher, more of a run stuffer. But the way he got moved around last season was just sad.

Agree. Offense: If Bryce can maintain, then you can confidently say that Sanders, Coker and Xavier will be better than they were as rookies. The oline will be better as they've had more time to gel with no turnover in personnel. Improvement at backup RB. Chuba could go down and they wouldn't miss a beat. Consistency in HC and OC. Defense: Safe to say they've improved Safety, pass rush and run defense. Not saying they'll be great in any of those areas, but barriing injury (I know, I shouldn't even say that) they'll be greatly improved. Better play at NT and DE will improve ILB play and pass rush. Especially when Shy isn't getting bulldogged 5 yards back. Pass rush helps coverage for CBs and Safeties, so they should be better too. Football has and always will be the ultimate team sport. Can't look at anything in a complete vacuum. Except special teams. Kickers are on their own.

Agree. But they've mostly put most of those positions at the same level of need. So now they don't need to draft an Edge first over an OT. If OT is the better player, they can draft that position and then an Edge later. But out of that list, I'd honestly say FS is the biggest glaring hole. It'll be interesting to see how they approach the draft. A safety at #8 is considered a reach due to value of position.

Have you seen the price of eggs lately? I buy them by the half dozen.

Juan is always on it!
