I know I did my own personal write up earlier today but, this one came out like 20 mins ago and this guy is a far better writer and probably football eye than myself.  If your still on the fence and aren’t Garyed out it’s a Great read. 

Rashan Gary is not only one of the most athletic defensive linemen in this draft class, he's one of the most athletic players at any position. The disconnect is between physical potential and on-field productivity; Gary played both inside and outside at Michigan and he was often played out of position. He's not an interior lineman in the NFL but an edge rusher, where he can use his quickness, speed and strength to out-maneuver offensive tackles.

Gary is way better than Sweat. 

Man... I’m on the fence about that... I love Gary as you can see but I am also very high on Sweat. Either one I am good with, I feel because of Gary’s ability to play edge in 3-4 or 4-3 plus ability to play defensive tackle in a 4-3 he’s safer and a better pick. Sweat does have more production, and is probably a better pure pass rusher right now, my gut says Gary tho.

Fans worry too much about stats. Teams game planned for Gary every Saturdays. They doubled, tripled and whatever else with him. Gary is a nightmare for offensive line coaches. 

Gary was tripled team and was still fighting on his feet. That’s friggn scary. 

I love this, guy takes on the tight end and two pulling guards and sets the edge about a yard deep.  How was that not a tackle for a loss?  Luke or Shaq are making that tackle behind the line of scrimmage 9 times out of 10. 

 

I haven't watched any film on Gary but if this is the reason why he's got low production, sign me up.  Need guys to do the dirty work to let our LBs roam.

Sweat seems stiff and overhyped cause of his 40time

Sweat is going to go early due to his on field production, which included double digit sacks in both years playing in the SEC. He simply solidified his status with a great Senior Bowl week and NFL combine.  Gary on the other hand has never put up numbers that make you think he is going to be any more than Taco Charlton. Hard pass on Gary.

    • I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/
    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
