what does the board think.....tates prob of the board when we pick also benn is prob gone. i think this kid has alot of upside and is under the radar. mel and todd have him in the second round if he comes out and think he fills the need of big number 2 we need.georgia tech does have a nice pedigree of wrs with the last big name being calvin johnson...tomas is in the same mold but might be a few steps slower. he cought fire towards the end of the season and was productive even in a run first option offense....

I posted this about him in the thread I started about the Panther's options at WR next season.

Coming out of Georgia Tech, the guy is big, fast, and has great hands. Physically, I don't think there is a match for him in the upcoming draft class. He reminds me of Andre Johnson. He's a specialist in deep route running. If you are shooting for a big guy rather than a someone quick like Tate that's where I would look in the second-third round.

After playing in GT's run first offense, the guy knows how to block, and is built to do so well. He would be the perfect compliment to our running game, and is easily the best replacement for Moose when it comes to run blocking. He's 6-3 230 lbs and is not easily matched up with by puny cornerbacks or safeties.

Let's see how the combine goes.

^^^^

We'll see. Dude is huge as hell, and nobody will be able to match him on the deep ball

The only thing people is concerned about is his ability to run other routes than the go. His 40 may been lower than people will think. Difference is he gets faster as he goes on cause of his long legs

If he do well at the combine, idk if we'll get him with our pick

of Thomas manhandling and outrunning just about every defense in the ACC while leading the nation in Yards Per Catch this year. Watch the play that starts at 47 seconds in when he owns a couple of Miami defensive backs. Not only is he fast and agile, but he runs like a truck.

that's not a problem. as long as we have a deep threat aside smitty (which we currently lack) we're set... smitty can have a hayday as an underneath threat. i would be in favor of this.

Jarrett is 6'4" and 219lbs.

I lose 2lbs on a good Zod.

Let's see how he comes off a blocker in the combines, his 40 speed, vertical, and cut ability before we crown him.

he has never run a route in his life and gets thrown to maybe twice a game

he plays in the most gimmicky offense in division 1A

he's going to blow up the combine because he's a monster but man alive is he a project.

I wouldn't mind getting this guy. We just need a player that defenses can truly respect besides Smith. It seems like Matt Moore can make Jarrett work. Maybe get this guy and a FA like Breaston and I think we're set. But this does seem like a high risk high reward player. Tate might be a more proven commodity.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.

      It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
