Some years back we took Amini Silatolu. With the next pick, they took Cordy Glenn.

This pick is giving me deja vu.

And in 2012, we took Luke Kuechly and with the next pick, the Bills took Gilmore.

Deja vu!

Hopefully we can sacrifice a few virgins and let him sit for a year/get coached up enough to step on an NFL field in 2020. I do not want him protecting Cam as is. Unless he's been hiding some serious talent in his back pocket.

Maybe because little was one of the best prospects available?  Maybe because his tape is very impressive and he was first team SEC?  Maybe because he won just about every award he could win?  

Some people bitch about anything.  

Cody Ford would be a much better choice than Greg Little would have been a better day 1 starter.

Cody Ford would be redundant with Moton and Williams in terms of potential to be a LT. Ford might be a better RT, but then we're pulling an ATL with 4 starting OGs.

Exactly. We needed someone else that could slide out to LT if needed. There's no one after Moton and Williams at tackle.

I can't believe the negativity of many on this board.  These are the same folks that bitch and moan that we don't give Cam any help. 

People that get paid to evaluate players have Little as 1st round prospect.  We need a LT in a bad way.  Little was the last decent LT in the draft.  I would have rather have given up the other 3rd round pick but Hurney did the right thing.  A helluva lot better than Gettleman drafting a player that would be out of the league in 3 yrs.

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.

      Mustard BBQ sauce only. Bessingers or Melvin's BBQ sauce.  However Bessingers is the best in the world, Melvin is 2nd.    I found this article    In fact, the New York Times Magazine described the sauce as “terrifically balancing the tangs of mustard and vinegar with a wood fire's charry flavor.” While helping his dad, Joseph “Big Joe” Bessinger, as a teenager in the kitchen of the family's first restaurants, Thomas learned the secret recipe for the gold sauce – ... https://www.bessingersbbq.com › t...
