Mr. Scot

Nah... I like to talk about football. I don't give a sh-t about attention from internet strangers. Our friend you quoted there though? He's a troll, same guy that was pimping the idea that he had inside knowledge of the Watson trade and we were still getting him despite it being reported that his trade to Cleveland was official. People who make up sh-t like that...those are the attention whores.

If I recall correctly, he was pegged to be the successor to Ray Lewis. Didn't work out that way...

Like was mentioned above though, how many games do you expect to get out of Clowney If you sign him? And therein lies the issue

Honestly, I think Clowney has always been more name than real player. Everybody remembers that one big college highlight, but if you want to name a pro highlight of his, it's not so easy. The knock that he made a load of money off of one clip has some validity to it.

They only known weakness Patrick Mahomes has... ...his idiot brother

From a PFT article about the interview... In a Tuesday interview with #PFTPM, Carolina G.M. Scott Fitterer addressed the manner in which the team decided to make Bryce Young the No. 1 overall pick. “We went through a really continuous process, and we tried to poke holes,” Fitterer said. “We looked at him from every different angle. We went to our analytics guys, we went to player engagement, went to, like, the psychologist. You look for anything that you might miss just on tape and on evaluation. We have all these fact checks in place. “Once that person’s able to stand in there and stay at the top of the board the whole time, you know you have your guy. But it was a real process. We really didn’t decide until the Monday prior to the draft. When I went and walked into Frank’s office said, ‘OK, who we taking?’ You know, just kind of a quick question. He said, ‘Bryce.’ I talked to Mr. Tepper about it. I think we were all on board. It was a consensus throughout the organization Bryce was the right guy for us.” Fitterer was asked whether there was a moment that, for him, Young emerged as the right choice. “The one thing that stands out is probably at dinner, the night before his Pro Day,” Fitterer said. “We’re sitting in a restaurant, and we’re talking to him. And this is the first time, you know, you’ve interviewed him at the Combine in an 18-minute interview. We’ve talked to him at other places, but this is the time you see him in a social setting, where we’re sitting around a table, and we’re really just getting to know the guy, and he’s holding court. We had a couple-hour dinner with him, and as you’re sitting there at dinner, you’re just looking at this guy, and I’m thinking in my head the whole time, ‘OK, is this the right guy for us? Is this the guy we want kind of being our face? Is he the one we want leading our team in the huddle when it’s the fourth quarter?’ And you have all these questions in your head as you’re sitting at dinner just watching him talk to other people. And that’s kind of the moment that I had personally where I thought, ‘OK, this is the guy. This is the guy that we want leading the team.'” So how does the manner in which Young handles himself at dinner create confidence that he’s the right guy to lead the team on the field? “You feel the presence of the player, just like the command that they have,” Fitterer said. “As he’s sitting there at dinner, he was so poised and you’re like, ‘OK, if I put this guy in a huddle,’ if Frank and I saying, ‘This is the guy, we’re putting him in the huddle, game’s on the line.’ Bryce is the guy we want our players looking at, knowing this is the guy that can get it done for us. We can win with this guy. And I think that’s kind of where that social part overlaps in the football side when you get to know the person and not just the player.”

But incorrect... Corral wanted the change even before Young was drafted.

Tepper didn't put that out. Person wrote it analyzing some of his statements. It's an article, not a press release. Kinda hard to call that "attention seeking".

If we're talking about reality, here's what he's really trying to say... Well okay, maybe that's not what he's trying to say, but it's pretty clearly what he's actually saying and what he's been saying for so long that at this point it's pretty pathetic.

During college too...

Either hell or the toilet...

His being a longtime Eagles scout would make me think he and Reich are mutually familiar Good scouts are nice to have.

That's partially true because near as anybody can tell, he hasn't done much. He actually seems to be letting the "football people" do their jobs.

Yeah, this isn't the sort of thing I would base purely on talent. The guys that become the best players aren't always the most talented guys, and the most talented guys don't always turn into great players. Outside of that, innate talent is kind of a difficult thing to judge.

Ngakoue or Burns?

I don't think a GM is gonna get fired over a third round pick. (nor should they be)

I like this idea

Only if he changes the field back to grass... Hell, if he did that he could name it after a porn website and I wouldn't care.

Boy would I love to know the answer to that question.

Heh

I'm sure he liked it too

Are you talking about any message board or The Huddle?

Amen to that
