That kid is 25 years old bro.

If he is great we won’t be able to afford his second contract with Burns anyway. We need him to produce in these next 3-4 years anyway.

DJ was more than likely the last edge rusher on the panthers board after young went.  there isn't a whole lot in FA.  had to do something

Just reading scouting reports, he needs work on a lot, including tackling, and run game recognition. Unless these reports are wrong, this guy is completely developmental, and will need a lot time.

Trading up, using a fourth round pick, for a developmental shot in the dark prospect doesn't feel like it's filling a need.

Appeal to authority.

For all we know Evero had nothing to do with his selection.

Our DC who Reich let pick his entire defensive staff had nothing to do with our highest drafted defensive player??

I never said that. I said no one here knows what's going on in that draft room.

Also, appealing to authority is how we get guys defending Everette Browns, Ealys, and Gaudlens.

Appealing to authority? The staff isn’t concerned if people on a board love the pick or not. It’s not going to change their mind. I’d rather just wait and see.

Appealing to Frank Reich and Ejiro Evero is a little bit different than appealing to Marty Hurney.
