  1. Damn traded up for Princely and crashed the huddle
  2. In fairness there seems to be some inconsistency at ESPN.
  3. All depends on the pick but it's not bad overall.
  4. As much as I'd like to trade up right now we don't need this FO being dumb and desperate.
  5. Yeah when I was watching the video I just heard freshman and him talking about high school too. Either way you're talking about a teenager. I imagine it was the first thing us and any other team that met with him asked about. I also saw some rumblings about off the field concerns in another thread and I have no idea where that came from. Just seems like there's some grasping going on especially considering there are prospects in this draft with assault allegations. This is the social media effect. At the end of the day some people will like the pick some won't. I'll trust Canales judgment as he was obviously a huge part of this selection and he will obviously be heavily involved in his development.
  6. He has my sympathy for having to go to the Falcons.
  7. Wow. Sucks for the guy. With what we have dealt with on the Jonathan Brooks front that's the last thing we needed in the first round though. Hopefully that all works out for him.
  8. At this point they need to. But it all depends on the price. Just do not get overly desperate because that's the last thing we need.
  9. You could be right maybe I misheard but still at 18 or 19 years old we can give him some grace. We've all needed to do a little growing in those years of early adulthood that's life. Just listening to his background and upbringing you can tell his Mom especially didn't raise a deadbeat by any means. We just have to give him a chance to prove himself.
  10. Great interview. I like the kid a lot. Also I did not initially realize the game tape remarks were back when he was a freshman in high school. I assumed with all the angst surrounding that this was when he was at least in college. Of all the things to criticize him for this is getting ridiculous.
  11. This is and always was a build for the next upcoming seasons not this season. We all knew the defense was going to take a couple of offseasons to get right. Just like the offense has taken a few years after we traded Moore to get a QB and reset. If your argument is you wanted defense that's fine but this does (regardless of how you feel about the prospect because of preconceived notions you've created about him personally which you've gone out of your way to tell us about) unequivocally change our offense for the better. I mean ffs we tried to acquire Metcalf and inquired about Higgins. Obviously we and the FO knew the WR room was not acceptable. We've got plenty of picks left and I definitely think we will walk away with a couple defensive studs tonight. Let's see what else they've got planned first and go from there. I'm still wait and see like I've always been.
  12. Brother it's the next day. He's a Panther. Accept it or unplug.
  13. It's an improvement from everyone and their momma knowing who we were going to pick. Now need to see how he navigates the rest of the draft.
  14. I see you're back to being in your feelings pooing posts at 4 am. I slept great. Ready to see who we're drafting for defense
  15. I don't think you gotta pray for that one bud I think it's already established.
  16. I don't see why people are so irate about this. Just within the last few weeks I myself was saying we should not be overvaluing Adam Thielen the way we had been and our WR room was concerning. We addressed it big time. Now we can focus on the defense there will be plenty of talent available. Either way as I've said repeatedly this draft was not and should not have been about trying to fix the entire roster including the defense in one offseason. The FO needs to build intelligently for the long term.
  17. As a skeptic about this and our FO I am glad we finally put this to rest.
