Gettleman: Gaffney very good in blitz pickup. will come in handy in preseason when folks coming after the QBs.

 

LO' fuggin L

 

So we draft a RB to protect our QBs in preseason? How about an offensive linemen to do the same damn thing?

 

 

 

6th round OL are more likely to allow their QB to be hit rather than to protect them.

 

That's why they are 6th rounders.

At this point, I would say Barner is the likely odd man out.

 

We shall see.

 

So the selection of Gaffney makes the Barner pick a waste?

I'm talking developmental offensive linemen playing in pre-season.

Is that a real quote from DG? If so I am a little concerned.

Yes it is. I am more than concerned.

Drafting players for Pre season only. LOOOOOOOL

A lot of 6th round picks are wastes, the average NFL career is like 3-4 years. 

 

I'd rather we move on now instead of holding onto him because we dont want to admit a mistake (if the coaches dont see him improving)

Victor Hampton...all I'm sayin

Read it and weep you bitchy fugers

 

Gettleman: "Once you get past that top-tier of tackles, there was a huge drop-off."

[Draconus]

Heck I would have preferred any other position in football than RB. I'll ask you this: What RB do you cut? Or are you in favor of carrying 5 RBs on this roster?

 

I think it's more likely he starts out a FB/HB hybrid and takes Brockel's spot on the roster.

Gettleman said he felt "just as good, if not better" with the Panthers' tackles vs. those who were available.

Probably.

 

Low round draft picks are always risks.  You pick'em, you takes your chances.

 

You're under the impression that every draft pick always stays on the roster long-term?

[tiger7_88]

Who are developmental because of their lower skill-level as compared to upper level draft picks.

 

Ergo, they are more likely to miss blocks.

 

Ergo, your QB gets hit.
