[PanthersUnited]

I cant link the tweet (sorry) but Gannt just tweeted Gman said DJ Humphries and Shaq were the top 2 players atop their board.. Thank you Cardinals!

Yeah, I would have rather had Dorsett, but I'll take Shaq over Humphries.

This is shallow as fug but after looking at Humphries tonight he just looks soft as fug and like hes 16 years old

[CatalystNX]

I just don't like the fact that he played well under 300 lbs at Florida and is going to be asked to play even better at a higher weight in the pros.

I'm sure Gettleman still had Shaq rated above DJ, so same result without the Cardinals pick.

[Panthro]

I'd say even tie goes to need

Gettleman said D.J. Humphries and Shaq Thompson were the 2

players #Panthers talking about at 25. When DJ went at 24, easy

pick. #CARpick

Dave Gettleman said choice came down to OT D.J. Humphries

or LB Shaq Thompson. When Arizona took Humphries it made

Carolina's call easy.

Gettleman says D.J. Humphries & Shaq Thompson were the two

players Panthers were looking at. "Would not have been

disappointed either way."

Humphries would have been great for us.

Charlotte Observer:

Panthers general manager Dave Gettleman said Thompson and Humphries were the top players

on their board:

“They’re both really talented, and they both have big upside,” Gettleman said. “We would not have been disappointed either way, either way it fell.”

...

“Shaq’s going to allow us to put three very fast linebackers on the field. I think he’s going to be a great fit with Thomas and Luke,” Gettleman said. “He gives us matchup abilities that we don’t have. There’s some different things we can do with him.”
