Would there be a double standard if..


Recommended Posts

For some reason Dorial Green-Beckham is selected by the Carolina Panthers in this year's draft? Signs are pointing to Hardy not coming back mainly due to the domestic violence events that occurred last year.

DGB is a once in a lifetime prospect. At Missouri he was a student. On the field he is everything you look for in a wide receiver. 6'6 230, 35" vertical, 4.49 forty time, it's an intriguing prospect. If he falls to the second or below and the Carolina Panthers are there and select him, would you think of it as a double standard? In case you haven't heard DGB has been in some off field issues. Being caught with marijuana, allegedly pushing a woman down the stairs. Red flags.

Personally I'd be ecstatic with the pick due to the potential wr Corp. I wouldn't be quick to judge. I just hope this franchise values talent when they see it and takes a risk from time to time.

if we gave him $13 million and he gets in legal trouble and the front office cuts a deal with the commish to put him on a paid vacation instead of unpaid leave and he declines the opportunity to be on panthers property and work out in our building in favor of his rap career and we still tried to retain him and sign him to a long term deal...

 

then it'd be a double standard.  but we're not touching him with a ten foot pole so it's a moot point.

Richardson is so old he probably doesn't even know what weed or stairs are. Gettleman should just use his "Gettle magic" and convince Richardson that weed is slang for bibles and that flight of stairs is slang for the path to righteousness. That means he was - Selling bibles, and pushing people down the path to righteousness.

Richardson will except, and we will have two giants starting at WR for us for at least 4 seasons.

in the end only one team is going to draft the kid and the panthers will be one of 31 other franchises that either passed or, if he doesn't make it out of the first, didn't trade up to get him.  there are probably good teams that don't even have him on their board so shove your snarky "har har only choir boys here in carolina" bullshit

 

the panthers aren't that weird, different, or special in spite of your limited perspective

The hype on this guy is getting ridiculous.

People have him as the next Jerry Rice, Michael Irvin and Cris Carter all rolled into one.

C'mon now - his last name has both 'Green' and 'Beckham' in it. Kind of like how every DB with the last name 'Cromartie' is an All-Pro.

    • I am guessing that Cam Ward goes 1 or 2 and Carter goes 2 or 1. It is possible that Hunter goes third.  That would throw Sanders into the Aaron Rodgers free fall alert status. It seems that the Giants have no choice but to take Sanders--but if they like another QB better--like Dart or Will Howard (I am still predicting that Howard continues to creep up boards) they could trade back and still get Dart or Howard or Ewers. NY fans would probably want  GM Joe Schoen's head, but I sense bust in Sanders.   Personally, I would not take Sanders if I needed a QB.  He projects a vibe that he is entitled--better than he is, and his father would be loud and critical if things went any way but the Sanders way, and he is, according to a few articles I read, pursuing a career in music.  Lotta potential noise there.  As a "common" player in college, I would resent the fact that some players are making millions.  Sanders had a towel with a gold buffa---oops---dollar sign embroidered on it.  Almost reminds me of Brian Bosworth coming out of Oklahoma some 40 years ago--lotta hype, lotta self promotion--bust.  Again, just the vibe I am getting.  I think only a desperate team like one of  the NY franchises will take him early.  Cleveland?  Carter or Hunter, depending on what happens with Garrett there. Someone is going to trade up to get an OT. I see the Titans trading out of the #1 pick if they can get a taker--the Giants come to mind. Not sure what this rambling bit of stream of consciousness proved, but I am going to hit "submit reply" now.
    • If we're drafting a RB at #8 overall after both paying Chuba and trading up to draft a RB in the 2nd last year then the entire front office needs to get fired on the spot.
    • I'm glad a lot of us already understood this. The pundits are saying that this draft doesn't have a lot of elite players, but is good on depth. Why would anyone trade away a 2nd or 3rd round player to move up and grab a guy who isn't' significantly better than a player who would be available if the team stayed put. I understand moving up if all of a sudden there is a run on a position and team has that pegged as a major need. That's not happening this year with picks 1-7. We need to stay put unless some idiot GM does offer us a 2nd rounder to move down no more than 4-5 spots.
