Let him cook

LOL

After all the poo I've taken on here the last year with discussion about him, you're damn right I'm going to cook up a freaking storm right now.

Despite all the words I've said since the pick was made, I'm still at a loss of words to accurately describe my feelings, it's still very surreal to me that T-Mac is a Panther, I feel like the NFL might still be able to step in and take him away from me, I mean us (LOLOL), somehow.

Some of y'all seemingly hate to see other people happy. It's weird.

You know when I won't be happy about this pick?

When it completely ruins my fantasy draft this year, hahahahaha.

We do an auction draft and while I have the most historical success in our league (same group of guys for about 15 years now), my one flaw is that I have a real hard time not overpaying for the guys I have a soft spot for and our league has gotten good at getting me to over bid on them to get them.

I'm so screwed this year, I'm going to have to put a very hard cap on my budget for T-Mac and not allow myself to bid a dollar over it.  I've already made the determination that he's going to be the first player I nominate this year so I can get it out of the way early and don't sit on budget waiting for him only to over pay or not get him in the end.

looking for reasons to like the pick....our QB and both WRs can get the extra extension year if we so choose.  That's important.  Now after Bryce gets his deal (which should not be a record setting one) we may have to choose which WR to extend, but we have 4 years of a cheap trio at expensive positions.  good to have that core together for that many years.

Not that this pick needed a cherry on top for me, but just saw that not only is T-Mac the first player the Panthers have ever drafted from Arizona, we were the only team in the NFL that Arizona had never had a player drafted by before.

So the Panthers take their first Wildcat and Arizona now has had a player taken by all 32 teams.

Cherry.

@tukafan21 I'm happy for ya man. Drafting Julius Peppers is what originally made me a Panthers fan. When your college team isn't a traditional powerhouse you're not going to produce a ton of top shelf draft talent so it's even more exciting when your NFL team drafts one.

I’m an Auburn fan so I’ve been lucky with Cam and DB as early 1st rounders.

      Germaine Pratt available

      Here is what I think (and I agree):  They like ILB and Rozeboom is good depth.  Cherelus was solid for a reserve (PFF score 63.8 in 158 snaps).  They like what they have seen from Ransom and Richardson at S so far, so we could have 3 starting-caliber safeties--no sense burying the young guys.  (I think we are going to like our Safeties as they are--I also think we will add one of our UDFA with great ST abilities.  They signed some really good athletes as UDFA safeties).  I just do not see Scott making the roster if they watch any of his 2024 film. At CB, they think they have 3 with two who played a little bit last year (each had fewer than 35 snaps--they held their own--both scoring in the upper 50s on PFF).  I think, if we add a player, we add a young CB much later who was cut during the preseason.  I believe they want a preseason to see what they have in Bartholomew and Evans and Thornton, for that matter.

      Think he'd likely take from Wallace not Jewell.

      AND if you are looking for reasons NOT to sign him, here are a few:  "Germaine Pratt has faced criticism for his performance, particularly in coverage and tackling, despite his high tackle numbers and turnover-generating ability. He's been described as struggling to cover ground in a nickel base (Hmmmm.  Wonder if we play that?) and having an aggressive play style that can leave gaps in the defense. Additionally, there were criticisms about his missed tackles and poor angles in pursuit, particularly in the 2024 season"     Don't get me wrong--his stats are impressive.  This must be a move to get a certain Edge player signed.
