Not a UofSC fan, but the stats will show a one year wonder.  This article does a good job of summarizing his college career:

I think we’d be crazy to pass on this guy. As fun as it is to mock draft him in the 3rd round, I highly doubt he’s still there after round 2.

Yeah, he would be a no brainer in the 3rd IMO.  Great NFL tools.  Really seems to be trending up and still developing too.  I think he has a lot more room to grow.  I think another year of college likely would have him in the first round.  

and being a no good dirty Gamecock aside….I like his story.   Rough life.  Hard worker.  Easy to pull for.   And having dudes easy to pull for as people is part of the fun.

When I lived north of Seattle they thought I was stupid because of it.

In my experience, coming up anyway, people used to think I was stupid because of it everywhere---and don't get me started about making life choices that were nonconformist---but I quickly disabused them of that notion based upon my intellect. Now, some just mistake me for arrogant, but even that's not true. But it is what it is. The ladies and even some guys like my deep voice and hint of a southern drawl.

I used to work in a call center. When I answered the phone one time, a guy said "Whoa, who am I talking to, God?" LOL

I have never questioned the overall intelligence of any general Seattle resident. Beautiful area but one of the largest collections of some of the dumbest in the dark head buried in the sand numbskulls I have have ever seen or encountered.

One year wonder that never got speration.  Imagine mingo light with short arms and small hands.

So don’t draft him with one of our 2nds but if he is there in round 3 grab him?

Same with me when I was in Oregon.  Even my relatives who had kids my age treated me as if I was ingnant.  Those same kids dropped out of high school later and got jobs on crab boats.  I guess they peaked early.

He is a different beast than many all together. Had the privilege of making his acquaintance the past two seasons and regularly spending some time with him so I am probably biased but he has the best attitude of any young athlete I have ever watched, witnessed, worked with or alongside.

One of the most humble and generally decent humans you will meet. No matter how busy he was the guy always had time to talk to a child and help/offer words of encouragement. Adversity built that guy into something special. He is no joke and will prove any doubters very wrong at the next level. I was so blown away by who he is as a human being and a work ethic like I have never seen before and I've been around a ton of quite accomplished athletes the past 20 years. There is something special about this young man, it shines through when you talk to him for just 30 seconds. A good soul and motivated heart is an understatement when describing him.

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
