No one would care about Jackson State's coach "shaming" NFL teams for not attending his pro day if that coach wasn't an NFL HOFer. I still don't.

Spot on. 

Screw Deion🖕.

Get a 😂 out of the "when we arrive" comment...

...he'll bail on that program before they "arrive".

I don't understand the vitriol toward Sanders here. He's stumping for his players and his program. That's what he should be doing as the head coach of Jackson State.

He isn’t an old rich (rich but not on this level) owner of a team. 🤯🤯🤯🧜‍♂️

If there is one player, you don't have to go to the pro day, you can have a private workout when it is convenient.

Very good point.  I have also heard old GMs say they have missed certain pro days on purpose because they were already sold on a guy and wanted to throw off the scent.

There is a reason why franchises like the Steelers have had players like John Stallworth & Donnie Shell, and the Colts with Darius Leonard, Robert Mathis, & Antoine Bethea while we rather reach for players like Armanti Edwards & Will Grier.

Our scouting department can do more.

I love the Antoine Bethea story the way Bill Polian tells it.  He said he was going thru film of prospects when he came across Bethea.  He wasn't sure whether he should look at him as a safety or a corner in Dungy's defense, so he took the film to Dungy.  After seeing the kid play Dungy asked Bill if other people had seen the tape.  Bill said NO, just him and Dungy.  Tony told Bill to draft the kid, and not to discuss it with anyone for fear of the "secret" getting out.

They end up drafting Bethea, with the idea that he will begin his career at safety and as he gains experience he will move to corner.  In one of his first practices at safety he gets 2 picks.  After the second pick Dungy turns to Bill and says "I guess we are leaving him at safety."

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
