Gettleman and Rivera post-Draft presser

[carpanfan96]

Brandon Bean ran the room, they thought the teams tackles were better then what was in the draft after the top group of tackles.

we must be reaaaaaaally high on mcnutt and king.

and Byron Freaking Bell

[LinvilleGorge]

I'm starting to question our organization's ability to evaluate OTs.  I sure as hell hope that they're right and I'm wrong.  But from what I've seen, Byron Bell sucks ass and I have to assume the rest of them suck ass too since none of them were able to relegate him to the bench last year.

So Tre Boston might be our starting safety?

I am in the minority, but I think with the addition of Benjamin, Cotchery, and Avant along with the development of King and McNutt, that we are better at WR than last year.

No I agree. I think we are going to be better too.

We'll be better if KB can match Smitty's stats as a #1, or just if he gets a fair amount of more TDs.

In the presser GMAN through corner De'Andre Pressley in the same sentence as King, McNutt, and Bersin saying that they have skills.

I wonder if Pressley is now playing WR.

he did play QB at App St.

Just listened to the whole thing.

-Gettleman has a lot of confidence in Mcnutt,King and Bersin. Sounds like in that order.

-He said it was a deep receiver class and found themselves talking about a receiver in every round but the players we picked presented more value to the team

He also acted like after the top 4 tackles he didn't see any that were going to give our current guys much competition, so why use a pick on them.

Gettleman likes Bene' the corner and think he can come in and "play nickel right off the bat" and "has excellent ball skills"

Then oddly enough Rivera mentioned playing Godfrey at nickel and he was offered a chance to compete to start but nobody's guaranteed that or guaranteed to be a Carolina Panther

Both gave off the impression the previous regime made a mistake in moving Godfrey from corner to Safety(his college position)

Gettleman said he got his big men that will allow him to compete in day 1.

Gettleman said Gaffney is a great downfield runner like they want for our offense and he knows how to pick up a blitz

He was specifically asked if any other players were changing position outside of Godfrey and said no.

[panther4life]

Forgot about Tre Boston.

Per Gettleman

He was a good value in the 4th. Very smart, can get everyone lines up. He sets a tone back there,and has a special teams mentality to him.

Also said the corner was very smart to and got 21 on the wonderlic. Said that's important because you don't want people dropping coverages.

[CelticCat]

Well id like to know who's playing LT. And if its Bell, who's playing RT?
