2nd Round Pick Kony Ealy DE


Kurb

Recommended Posts

Look, I really want a shut down corner too but we can't just throw our picks out there and hope to get lucky and hit on one. There are OTs available that can start for us and we gotta go OT for safety -- after the KB risky pick (which I love by the way).

If we need an OT then they will get one from somewhere

Because Ealy was graded as a first round pick. Also, you do realize that either Hardy or CJ won't be here next year, right? Rookie DEs have a hard time progressing in the NFL. Giving Ealy a year before he takes the reigns helps us AND him.

 

along with most positions in the nfl,they all take time except for rb

 

the pick is premature this is assuming hardy and cj play hardball

 

missed out on a chance to help the offense or hell help the secondary out

You aren't freaking out that Bryon Bell and some random other guy are going to be our tackles?

DG says consistency will make an offensive line. He's not going to blow it up. Besides, Nate knows how the d line thinks and Bell is left handed! Not worried at all!

Secret weapons..

If you have watched Bells career of people blowing by him.....you should be worried. Left handiness doesn't suddenly make him athletic on that side

Go look at our starting CBs, OL, WRs, etc last year. Tell me if we had scrubs starting last year....

No names? Yeah. Luke and Cam are the MVPs of our team and not the highest paid!

Remember when Luke sent Beason packing? Ealy could do that to that to CJ or Hardy. Happens every year in training camps

You must be new at sarcasm.

My bad. Yes, I don't always catch sarcasm as well in written form on the huddle. There are many things said completely serious that I think should be sarcasm

I thought the left handed part gave it away. That one's on me!

I didn't feel the need to name all our scrubs last year. Our RT, RG, CB, CB (both spots outside when Capt goes to nickel), WR2, WR3, etc.

Those are scrubs.

and Beason was coming off a HUGE injury. That is why I endorsed drafting Luke bc I thought Beason couldn't return to form.....which he didn't. That isn't be case with the DEs.

    • I saw that too--and what you said made sense because there is something like that in the rules--said that he is unlikely to get picked up (and I was not suggesting that we do) and Jones wants to go to a winning team.   After getting beaten to death in NY behind a sub par OL, poor WRs, and brutal fan base, I get it. 
    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I’ll admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.
