This behavior was such a stupid decision by everyone involved.  Unfortunately it was also very tragic.  Even if he somehow gets out of this with minimum legal consequences (and I do not think he should), do not see how any team could trust this guy.

Leaving the scene?????  He was drinking (my opinion)...and had no concern for his friends.

Can he play football at an elite level? The NFL has a long history of looking the other way on pretty much anything and everything else if you can.

I saw a report the he did not have alcohol in his system at the time. How the knew that after he left the scene I do not know. Unless the officer tracked him down within a half hour of the wreck.

Alcohol stays in the system longer than that, and from what I heard on ESPN, he returned to the scene after a couple of hours.

I have not heard the full details about the incident so I was speculating.  I also do not watch ESPN.

The fact that he left the scene could really be a damaging factor in the courts as well as how certain NFL Team view him in the draft.

So, what are you saying? Should he pay for the rest of his life including jail time and be banned from the NFL?

Tragic, but not something that should end his career before it even starts. People need to remember these are kids. He was probably still riding high after winning the national championship and feeling invincible, like almost all of us at that age.

Someone is going to get a hell of a player if he drops far, like Sapp back in the day or Tunsil more recently.

Say we sign Carr and Jalen Carter is on the board at #9 do you take him?

In that situation? Maybe. If I thought I had a good chance to get a good qb I would say hell yes.

QB is off the board if we sign Carr.

 

Unless you think Carr is taking a major paycut I don't see how we still take a QB. Carr would need some weapons around him.

Carr doesn't change the future plans. He would be a now plan. Meaning they would not have to go all in to trade up. They would go bpa at 9 and if it's a qb great. It would allow them to consider another developmental qb outside of the top 3 to sit behind Carr to develop as his backup for the time being.

Yeah leaving the scene while your friends die in a crash you contributed to is an awful look. And that combined with his lie make it pretty likely he was hiding something. 
 

I’d have some serious reservations about drafting someone after that.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
