Yasinkas Has Us Taking Kuechly

[CRA]

Kuechly doesn't fit our defensive scheme, so we're not drafting him. Pretty simple.

Well, Beason doesn't fit our scheme....neither does Anderson if going off of what they have been asked to do

If that is the criteria we need to replace all the linebackers. None are great at blitzing or tackles for losses and everyone knows it can't be coached.

Or we could just stop talking about linebackers. We don't need to look for a CB who can rush the passer either.

d-line is our need.

I want the bpa that feels a need. So it's narrowed down to cox Kuechly coples ad Floyd to me. Cb is a need to but they aren't any cbs that would fit as the bpa at 9. I want cox. But I would be fine with any of the guys I mentioned. U need good or even great football players. If u feel Kuechly is a better football player for this team and u think he the best talent available, then u take him. The same for cox or Floyd and even coples.

I just want a good football player.

The Kuechly people seriously have the most illogical arguments ever. It feels like g5 tinderbox thread.

ah yes bench press, 40 yard dash (a healthy Kuechly vs Beason on a bad knee) and broad jump

is that what you wanted to discuss?

SO he didn't do the agility drills. Do you really think he is faster than a 4.7??? And do you think he is now???? Bottom line is that he was never fast as Kuechly and isn't getting faster after Achilles surgery.

And the kuechly detractors are emo posters who have taken a dislike to the best defensive pick in the draft for little sound reason.

d-line is our need.

DE maybe, DT not when we drafted 2 guys last year in the third round. If Cox isn't there few others are upgrades to what we have or are instant starters.

JJ 43 is about having a strong front 7. Good football players. It aint a Tampa 2 dependent on 4 man rush.

We need to get better NOW. DT likely just falls into the mix and sees little time/impact

[panthers55]

We did that already and he admitted not likeing the move. said he felt at home in the middle.

Plus you don't move a ALL pro MLB for a rookie.

Tell that to Demeco Ryans

Most decent outlets/mocks that discuss more than one player have Luke as possibility for Carolina.

The illogical posters are those that totally dismiss him and the need for LB

[panthers55]

guys stop talking about Beason's productive career when comparing him and Keuchly and instead talk about the REAL defining characteristics of an all-pro linebacker which is combine drills

:)

Again kuechly was more productive in college. Since he isn't in the pros how would we compare. Pretty stupid argument,

That's different, he was coming off an achill.... wait.....

"We've drafted too many DTs, let's draft an LB."

Just thought I would repeat what you've basically just said here so everybody can read it again.

[panthers55]

I can totally understand if people want Cox over Kuechly. I'll be pumped on draft day if we get Cox, but this hate for Kuechly makes no flippin' sense to me. The fact remains that we have two big question marks for our starting LB corp and no depth behind them. How can anyone be so opposed to picking a potential playmaker in that department? And for those who talk about him being a late tackler after the ballcarrier is 5 yards past the LOS, have you even watched his tape?? Because that idea is COMPLETE BS. Hell, I had Cox as number one on my wishlist, but after reading the stupid posts on here, I kinda want Kuechly more, JUST so I can see how y'all respond when he starts pooping on NFL talent.

Haters gonna hate, I guess...

People who dislike Kuechly have little rationale for it. Hard to understand really. I don't know we will take him but to dismiss him as average or a bust or anything else said is ridiculous.
