He wasn’t great  in 2019.  So we can agree there? 

so that brings us to 2020.   Gamecocks allowed 40 points per game.   40.  A lot of his individual numbers were simply aided by the Gamecocks being so bad....teams just didn’t bother with him.  Not out of fear as much as the Gamecocks couldn’t stop anything.   So why even bother with the best of a horrible bunch.   And he still showed a lot of same inconsistencies in 2020 when he did show up. 

Ramsey isn’t the niche DB Horn is.  Horn is great at that niche.  I give him that.   And he has great physical skill set.   I give him that too.   I also like how he goes up to contest balls.  I give him that.  

But he wasn’t a great DB IMO.  In zone? Off man?   He wasn’t great.   We play far more zone than man.  Which is why I don’t like the pick at 8.   Given the options.

We’re moving to more press.

P good interview from long before the draft with Patrick Peterson and Bryant McFadden talking to this kid. Gives an insight on what makes this guy tick and why both these proven corners already saw him going top10. Jaycee also has his own youtube channel with his prep going into proday and pre-draft stuff if yall are interested. We won't know how good he actually is until we play him but it's exciting and better than being glum i guess.

Certain WRs as in the only ones he faced? You really have no clue... He played 30 games and only ONE WR has over 50 yards. It was the best WR in college and he had 60 yards. You may be upset with the pick, but stats don’t lie.

I love your positive on this but that was a major reach.  Hope I am wrong.

Feels like someone wanted to look clever or smarter than everyone else.  Disturbing to me

We picked the best corner in the draft. Horn was the highest rated. Surtain is big but he is a bit slow for his position. He is going to struggle against fast twitch receivers. Horn was the most athletic corner in the draft and one of the best tacklers as well.

Yeah, I've done a little more digging into this and it does seem like most annalists in the know thought horn had way more athleticism and up side. I'm not feeling so bad about this now, I just didn't know. This kid could end up being a big play maker. Him and Chinn together could be a deadly secondary... this may end up being a super good pick!

Maybe.  But we ain’t got the bodies to run a lot of press man right now.  

my reaction to the pick is what we are now. 

 

Dude, your reaction is typical Clempsun bs. Just because JC played at USC you claim he is not any good. He was the highest rated CB coming in. Just go with it, and maybe do some homework. And not go off your bias.

Watch any SC game last year.  This guy was pretty much invisible.  No impact.  None.  Again, our new GM doesn’t understand impact on winning...not sure anyone does.

Isn’t that what you want from your corner...

That’s because no one threw his way.  Except Auburn, who had Seth Williams at WR.  Horn embarrassed him.

thats not a bad thing as a CB.

if your CB is getting their name called often, it's usually a bad thing.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      By PadresPanthersFan · Posted

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
