dareus refuses to be derailed


Recommended Posts

Dareus will probably be a really solid DT. He's a good pick, no doubt about it.

It's too bad there is this little thing called 'scoring', which is required to win american football games. It's too bad also that the offense does this, and a DT doesn't line up in offensive formations. And it's too bad we had the worst QB play in the history of our franchise last year and are in need of a QB 100 times more than a DT.

Dareus will be a great pickup for Denver, or maybe Cincci.

Love the kid, love the story, Would love to have him as our #1 pick. For some reason I now think of the movie the blind side when I hear of Dareus. The kid will come to the NFL to play, He will be a hard worker and thats what will make him a good NFL player. I honestly would love to pick him over Fairley and Newton but our offense is what we really need to improve and I would honestly feel better picking Green or Peterson with our first pick. So many tough decisions with so little time.

Which is exactly what Dareus is there to prevent other teams from doing :)

Dareus also is humble. When he was the MVP of Alabama's win over Texas in the 2010 national championship game, he didn't party afterward like a rock star. He hung out with his family at the team hotel, playing pool and reminiscing until it was time to go to sleep.

Sign this man.

We'd be stupid to pass on Dareus if we stay at #1. Also, to address the whole scoring issue, if you can't stop an offense you have to match them in points and Cam Newton alone can't do that. Anybody who thinks so is pipe dreaming or has the ghey for him.

There's nothing wrong with our defense. We could always get a DT FA. or 3rd round.

    • Corbett knows he needs to take a prove it deal and I think he will.  I watched an interview and he was convincingly adamant he wants to stay.  Two different injuries in two years was bad luck.  It's not like it was the same thing.  He knows the game and figures to end his career in a place where he is happy.  You can't really compare how Bryce did with Mays compared to AC.  AC was hurt week 5.  Bryce was on the bench after week 2 and didn't return until week 8. Mays is basically under team control next year as a RFA.  We could offer the right of first refusal for 3m.  I'd offer a 2 year deal which averages a little higher so you can manipulate the cap on his deal.  Additionally, I'd resign Corbett to a team friendly deal.  Many forget he has positional versatility like BC.  Corbett is only one year older, is two inches shorter, about 10 pounds heavier, and has arms that are one inch longer.  Corbett has played LT in college and guard/center in the NFL.  Ideally, bring back all three, but if BC gets big time $$$ AC and CM can battle for center and the other becomes a swing lineman. If we cut bait on Yosh Nijman we may be able to keep all three.  I'd sign up for that in a heartbeat.  
    • As fans, we often exaggerate how bad our team owner is because we are so invested and focused on our team. We don't really see how bad other team owners, like Woody Johnson or Robert Kraft, because we are focused on the Panthers.
