"we're tickled to have you here"

"woke up with morning wood"

Well counter to Tepper reportedly wanting Fields, he looked pretty on board. 

Time will tell with this one.  Maybe Sewell being off the board saved a potential Horn over Sewell scenario from melting this board into oblivion lol.

This is actually true. Panthers and Cowboys were in love with Jaycee Horn early. Buddy called it two days ago.

I don't really think Tepper would have told the kid "ya know, I wanted somebody else but good luck".

Since expected Sewell to be gone this is accurate.

It does't nr who Tepper wanted, he's not the talent evaluator.

At any rate, the biggest point is that this negates the notion that somehow Sewell was going to be the pick or that Panthers panicked when he came off board and had to scramble to pick Horn like some on here think.

Missing my point and annoying as usual

For what it’s worth, Rhule said in the pre draft show that he called several guys last night. 
 

It wasn’t just Horn.

Eeeehhh, maybe. We don't really know what Rhule said to him. Could have been something as simple as "we really like you".

Reports confirm that we did take trade down offers.

This pick should assuage fears of Tepper meddling. 
Tepper apparently is just talk when it comes to getting a franchise QB.

Rhule has also said that when Fit was chosen as the GM that he needed some who was a great talent evaluator to help him make the right choices on personnel based on what he wanted in the player/position.   So with that being said I'm sure that Fits laid out to him where the guys "should" be taken based on position value.  That's how it should work.
