Panthers Like Cb Gilmore


The Special One

Recommended Posts

Wasnt darnell revis drafted at 17? Given a redraft im sure he is number 3 pick that year now. He is comparable to gamble which is great and he is a leader with a high motor from what i heard from him in the panthers.com interview.

Revis was drafted at 14 with OUR original pick.

The Cowboys are apparently in love with Stephon Gimore. I don't think trading back is an option, because the Cowboys will probably take him at 14.

I have heard the Cowboys are in love with 4 players now. Lol.

Gilmore, Barron, Kirkpatrick, Fletcher Cox.. the Cowboys want everyone.

I'm starting to feel like this is the pick I want.

Not that I greatly value his opinion, but Kiper just said on NFL32 that Gilmore has surpassed Kirkpatrick as the most likely the 2nd CB taken in the draft.

I said before that I really hoped we would pick him up even when he was being projected as a 2nd or late first rounder, but I'm starting to warm up to the idea of taking him with our first pick, especially if we trade back. I think he is going to be really good and IMO our biggest need is CB then DT.

The term "reach" is something Mel Kiper manufactured. There's no such thing. If you believe in a guy and don't think he will be available with your next pick then you take him. This is why Christian Ponder and Jake Locker went so high last year. It doesn't matter what round Mike Mayock thinks a guy should be drafted in.

The only thing we can hope for is the Panthers scouts are accurate and Coach Ron gets some serious input. I def trust Ron Rivera more than I trust Marty Hurney.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
