I thought this was really cool. Many of us were concerned about how motivated Edwards really is going in to the draft. That is not a problem with LaMelo. I’m getting more and more excited about him the more I read about him.

Did he make any of those shots?

Providing he is all we hope he will be.  The Hornets need to be all in to make sure he knows that this is his team and build around him.  Make this team a winner so he'll want to stay after his contract is up. 

That's how they screwed up Walker, Charlotte never really gave him any help.

I hope he's a lifetime Hornet.

To be fair, it's not like Walker has been amazing over in Boston. Because he hasn't, he's been good. I'm glad we let him go.

I think the American people can take care of themselves, have been for hundreds of years without lockdowns or upstart authoritarians telling us we can't ram pack the Spectrum Center.

Our lives, our team, our city, our state, our #3 pick. This nanny state crap needs to stop. We've been through worse. Open the damn doors!

Can we have some appreciation for the sacrifice it took to get where we are, mixed couples on TV and such and equal opportunity for slavitude from the same people you speak of? I don't want to lose where we were going in favor of a jacknifed tractor trailer just because.

We can build instead of destroying it's the people's choice. The people decide that. We chose to be law abiding loving citizens of society. We decided that, all of us.

All I'm saying is we went through swine flu without all of the fuss, what's different, oh yes!...

Let's start behaving like intelligent people. You keep the lights on and you've got to know it. We need each other to tune out fear and get back to work as a country.

#2 got 10 RB and 4 assists. Working! That's the sign of a guy that's still giving 100% achieving the dream. Yeah he didn't score but they scored because of him. What he did in limited time was impressive. Best Hornet passer since Muggsy day one. Lets get back to the hive folks.

      Exactly. Exposes the whole defense. Dude thinks anyone can be Aaron Donald or something

      DONOVAN EZEIRUAKU at 8?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      While we're talking a fresh prospect that I happen to be a fan of, might as well get on a soapbox: Point 1 - He is not undersized by any means, his length is far above the mean His wingspan is in like the 85th percentile. An interesting note - his wingspan is 5 inches over Khalil Mack, 2 inches over Will Anderson's.  Only 1/2 inch away from the no-production yet size hyped 6'5 267 Shemar Stewart's. For comp - Ez's is around 83", arm length 34".  For NFL comp, the mean for wingspan is 80" and arms 33.5" at for starting EDGE defenders.  So it's not just my isolated comparisons. Point 2 - He isn't just a flashy "pass rush specialist" His film (and testing) shows elite quickness, hand work, and ability to play with the heads of OTs that normal prospects don't grasp. (see my prior post) Testing wise, one of the fastest 3-cones and short shuttles for an edge in years.  Fastest this year for both -- and those two drills are the ones teams look at for pass rushers, usually very indicative of success.  His quickness is off the charts. He's a guy that played well, showed well to those casually watching and those film-studying.  Then he goes out and tests well to back it up.  Apparently interviews super well.  So, I think it's all about his capacity/potential as a run defender.  That's really what it comes down to.  Can he be a 3-down guy or is he a specialist?  I see a 3-downer, his run defense is better than given credit for. A breakdown Ez vs. the NFL mean Arm Length: 34" vs. 33.5" (over) Wingspan: 83" vs. 80" (over) 3-Cone: 6.94 sec vs. 7.23 (WELL over, 95 percentile) Short Shuttle: 4.19 vs. 4.424 (over) Height: 6'2 1/2 vs. 6'3 (slight under) People look at the height a smidge under 6'3 and take that without considering the rest.   I think with Ez, it all comes down to what teams think his run defense upside is.  All it takes is one team - if they think he can become more that a passing down guy, then he could go high.  But if guys like Nik Bonitto and Haason Reddick can turn into these all-arounders, I don't see why this kid can't either who has higher pedigree and better measurables. Now, I prefer Graham, Walker inside, Will Johnson, Barron, and some others over him, but once we're in this tier outside of the top guys, I find the argument way more compelling for Ez over a Mykel Williams or Shemar Stewart.

      Well if we’re bringing this guy with character issues in for a visit why not consider Mike Green at 8!?
