but why would Carolina want to get this guy to backup??? they have Clausen under contract and Anderson. it doesnt make sense. i dont see them putting a bid on Pryor, NOW if they DO play the supplemental draft look for them to put bids on a cornerback and McAdoo, i dont see them putting a bid on Pryor. i think the teams that bid for Pryor are Dallas, Cleveland, Washington, Miami, Seattle and San Francisco.

They wouldn't put a claim in for Pryor. Just saying, their games are similar and he would be an ideal backup for Cam because we would not have to change the playbook if Cam went down with an injury.

Michael McAdoo is a good young prospect...TP is also a good young prospect

The Panthers need good young prospects at DE much more so than at QB

See Dick run.

Don't know anything about McAdoo's game but it seems we are content at the DE position. CJ/Hardy/Brown/Norwood.. don't see any room for McAdoo.

So some guy said that he heard Gruden said that Prior may be better than Newton. Why get upset about that? Has Gruden actually said it? I doubt he would go on record, even if he did. Some of you take this stuff way too personally.

BTW, Prior *may* in fact be better than Newton someday, but I seriously doubt anyone thinks he will. If you let his actions speak for him, he's still got a ten cent head, and will get stupid the minute he has a contract.

Guys guys guys it has to be true. People told me yesterday that they get paid for their opinion so it has to be right and we shouldn't even have our own and just listen to them.

We must cut Cam Newton and draft Pryor.

xxlightsoutxx? The other half a retard in that thread?

Where are you now?

mcadoo is a pretty decent end. good size, speed, etc.. after looking at the game saturday we do need depth at that spot.

Oh look, TRD posting in a thread about Newton not being a good player... big surprise! I guess it's either this one, or back to the one he started about how bad Cam is.

I never said how bad he is, just posted my observations from the game and said it wasn't as good as others make it out to be.

They know more than us right or wrong?

Cut Cam, sign Pryor

their games are similar and he would be a great backup, but i doubt they get him and honestly, i want Pryor to go to a team where he will start in time. if he goes to carolina he will never start unless Cam got hurt.

Why am I not surprised PFT would try to Push Pryor ahead of the QB they didn't like. Funny but everyone seems to be comparing other QBs to Cam. If he's nothing but a second rate or a project QB as so fondly push then why compare anyone to him. Is that a true test of how good those other QBs?

Would u put ur kid up against a second rate student or the best in the class?

John Fox was labeled a Defensive Guru, I never quite understood that.. Just look at the stats the years he was a DC. Not pretty!

I'd take Jon Gruden as a coach 10 times over John Fox. Is he a QB Guru? I dont think so, but he knows a hell of a lot more about football than anyone else on this forum.

i see room for McAdoo and why, well first off Everette Brown so far hasnt been great and if we cut some backup DEs not called Brown, then we can add McAdoo as a project DE. he's 6-7 and that's amazing size for a player. he is worth a look, especially if Hardy cant come back or if Brown doesnt start to emerge, i say draft McAdoo on his potential and he's a former Tarheel so he makes the local fans happy.

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
