Yeah I'm fairly sure it was an ankle injury or something similar.

That's what I remember too. 

If his lack of production was due to the coach benching him over an argument, said coach needs to be fired.

4th and later is where we pick up our backups.  These are important players. Just because Hurney didn’t take it seriously does not mean we can’t start now. 

i have a feeling Rhule and Fitt may be better talent evaluators than the last crew. They may have better luck finding contributors after the Hurneys of the world stop go home.

Whoa! I thought he was injured/covid risk during the season. The coach benched him that long over an argument?

Here is what the disagreement with the coach was about.  Could be a difficult outspoken player to work with.  Definitely coming in with a chip on his shoulder.

No I'm suggesting talent is all over the draft and the more swings you have the better chance you have at drafting them.. 

Also this opinion is off due to the fact You nor I know how their board is stacked up and where "they" had these players ranked.. You basing your opinion on who you think they should have drafted based on your non professional knowledge of who they really scouted and who they wanted..

Lol, I never said that I knew. I am using simple logic that is based on the history of drafting in the NFL. You could just look at a column chart showing the number of players that are still on a team based on the round that they were drafted and see which rounds have the highest probability for choosing players that will actually help the team. 
Like I said before, I understand why the Panthers are doing this for this draft, but in my opinion it is not the best thing to do every year. Otherwise you will end up with a lot of late rounders and have to spend more in free agency to get qualified talent. Maybe that is their strategy after all.

lots of the guys taken after the 3rd, will not be year one starters.

most have talent, but need to be coached at a different level to one that is suitable for the pro game.

many schemes from college are not anything like the pro style offense.

if we find the "athletes" that love football, our coaches can make them great contributors after their initial season

is there a stat that shows which drafts were more loaded with talent than others?

      After Day three.... New draft strategy?

      By Murph · Posted

      I’m going with Nick Emmanwori as the pick right now. Charlie Campbell has him ranked 5th on his post combine big board and another safety is needed.

      Morgan as GM so far

      By panthers55 · Posted

      That is ridiculous on several levels. First of all you have to spend 90% of your cap space every year so the idea you can just not spend it every year is against the CBA. Secondly your job is to assemble the best team you can for the fans players and team. Not to save money for the owner.  Third many players who are considered great underperform while others like Luvu and Jackson have overperformed. What about a  great player like Derek Brown who was injured and missed all of last year. Was he a waste of money?? Sure pay DK a fools ransom and hope he stays healthy. He didn't even get 1000 yards last year which averages out to 60 yards a game or play all 16 games.  And lets be real, Jones and Watson aren't  great but they aren't being paid that much either. Real glad you aren't the GM.

      Not necessarily, they very well could just be waiting on the players who will get cut in the coming weeks/months as cap casualties and wanting to have the cap room to be able to offer more than other teams (likely our best shot at finding immediate pass rushing help for next year at this point). Also wouldn't be the end of the world to try and roll some cap into next offseason to have more space to go after bigger FA's. That's a better move than signing guys who really won't help much more than whoever else we can get on minimum or rookie deals.
