Carolina Panthers select DT Vernon Butler

[CRA]

 

I'm amazed at the negative reaction to this pick. Getting interior pass rush is, in my opinion, the most important defensive aspect in football. If you have a chance to get a player who can improve that, you do it. 

This pick will elevate the games of Kony Ealy, Mario Addison, and potentially cox and delaire. 

For as great as star is, he is not a pass rush threat on 3rd downs. Vernon and KK are going to wreck interior lines while Addison, CJ, and Ealy come off the edge. 

Like the player.

if your level of play at a position of a 9/10 as is....you can add more talent and it still be 9/10.  

Never been a fan of guys watching football.  If dude is legit....we have a stud watching from the sideline every snap.  Basic reason of why I hated Double Trouble.  Liked them both individually...the great depth was largely overrated since both couldn't play at same time. 

Can't get the max out of guys when you overload at a spot

I like this pick more than the Shaq pick last year. I think Butler has elite potential.

lol no doubt he does 100 percent has my trust but everyone has opinions

I know...I just love the same huddlers losing their minds no matter what the decision is.  It is very entertaining.

Offensive lines don't rotate as often. When they are gassed at the end of the game KK and Butler are going to FEAST!

Gettleman so far has made 7 early picks (1st and 2nd rounders). 3 of them have been DTs.

Louisiana Tech defensive tackle Vernon Butler said on the red carpet before the NFL draft today the Lions told him they plan to take him with the 16th pick in the first round if he’s available.

“If I’m at 16, they said they’d take me,” Butler said.

.....Guess they lied to you Bro .....

I love this pick for no other reason than to watch the self proclaimed GM's on here lose their minds.  

Gettleman farts more football knowledge than any 10 huddlers on here have combined...I will trust him on this one.

Will you trust Igo now, though

I'm happy as a pig in poo with this pick. Trade up and get Ogbah or Hunter in the second, WINNING.

both of those players will be gone within the top 10-15 picks. carolina doesnt have the ammo to get up there to get them.

[The Huddler]

The amount of noob and ignorance and butthurt and retard and armchair gm in this thread is hilarious

 

keep it up please

[XClown1986]

He played at Louisiana Tech.... Do any of you understand what that means? He pretty much played defense by himself. He was double and triple teamed every game and still had double digit tackles for a loss and a few sacks. Once he got the opportunity to demonstrate what he can do one on one, he stood out like a boner in sweatpants.

I will never get mad at taking a pass rusher no matter how many we already have.

Remember when everyone lost their minds over Keuchly when we had Beason.

[Seal (SmittyIsOurSavior)]

I mean.... I trust Gettleman and all, but come on. How boring is that? Another DT? And that also basically tells us that we're not gonna be re-signing both Star & KK, right?

 

I hope we trade back up into the second to snag a falling Sterling Shepard, Emmanuel Ogbah, or Hunter Henry.

Oh I enjoy it as well. This guy has taken us from cellar dweller to contender since he has been here. It is time to have faith in him.
