i mean outside of hunter, is there anyone in this draft that teams are going nuts over? 

most other years would Ward have been the top pick? probably not. 

i think that there will be some really good starters in the first round this year, but i don't know that anyone is looking at this class going "all pro player, right there"

that's probably the root of some of it. people looking to get into the 1st round are probably the most desperate of the desperate grasping at straw instead of studs hoping that they can get a position of need filled. i mean that's usually the case, but i think usually it would have been harder to try and trade into the top ten. just doesn't feel like this draft has much to offer at the top of it. like most of the top 10 would have been middle to late first rounders other years. 

it's just not an exciting class. i'm probably looking at it wrong, but that's just what my really uninterested and uneducated eyes are seeing.

It's Hunter and Carter then a drop off to a second tier of players.

I don't think Jeanty is a 2nd tier player.  He just happens to be RB in the year 2025. 

and I'm going to go out on a semi limb.....I think Travis Hunter is going to disappoint in the NFL.   Given the hype.  Solid player.  But I think he is going to be over drafted off this illusion he can play 2 spots in the NFL.  I think he plays one and isn't dominate.

It's a great year to be a smart team. With all the perennially dumb teams sitting in the top 10 wanting to trade down there will probably be a perennially smart team identify a guy who may not stand out from the pack from a pure talent perspective but who does stand out from the pack in terms of fitting what they're looking for at that position of need and they'll jump up the draft board at a bargain to get him.

It's always a great year to be a smart team - that's why they keep winning and we keep floundering in the basement of the NFL.

True but the narratives this year set the table perfectly for the smart teams to fleece the dummies.

HEY ZOD:  I may have a conflict tonight for the first pick and may not be able to watch - so going to catch up via DVR.

Can you lock the board down starting at 8:30pm for a few hours so none of tonight's picks will be spoiled for me until I can catch up?   k thanks bye

All he means is that we will get some trades and other things that may be unexpected. Other than Penix last year, it was pretty meh.

I recall we had a pretty nutso draft sometime within the last few years but I forget which year.

      Before Shadeur Sanders there was Ryan Mallet

      By Waldo · Posted

      He was always the guy who didn't care about practice or being prepared. That works when you are a freak athlete and aren't in a position that has to do those things. What made Dion work as an athlete is what makes him a terrible agent. Yeah he has always been a pooshow. His kids probably think it's normal but Shaduer just paid the price big time. Started the video and it's already Dion bonkers lol

      This is also why in a way, I don't want T-Mac to get to 1,000 yards, because I think it means XL or Coker took a step back. While maybe that would be good for T-Mac's growth, I have absolutely zero, in fact, less than zero concern about T-Mac becoming THAT guy for us and being a Top 10 WR every year with legit Top 5 potential. And even though I have faith that XL and Coker can be that 2/3 combo next to T-Mac in the future, I have far more concern in the two of them getting there than T-Mac being that #1, so their growth is "more important" to me this season than T-Mac's, in that sense. Thielen's presence will suppress the numbers T-Mac/XL/Coker put up, but his presence is what is best for Bryce's growth, which is more important than anything with the WRs this year because we need to know if he's going to be that franchise QB for us. If Bryce already proved himself to be that guy, Thielen isn't even on the team this year and none of this is a debate, then yes, T-Mac would HAVE to put up 1k this season.

      I’m ready to fall in love with the Carolina Panthers again

      I've gone back to buying Panthers merch for the first time in a couple of years. Have some optimism for the first time since we drafted Bryce, which quickly met it's downfall.  Don't fug this up, Panthers.
