Gettlemen Combine interview

[jptaylor84]

Kind of worries me how little attention WRs are getting from him, but it may just be the questions being asked. Or...smokescreen.

Building from the inside out you watch

[PantherFeez]

I guess we just have to hope the BPA when we pick is a WR..

Dave Gettleman said Panthers aren't going to 'panic' over the WR position. Believes in some of the younger players on the roster.

Other favorite bits that I saw:

 

Dan Kadar ‏@MockingTheDraft  1h

Gettleman said some colleges are throwing the "hoochie screen."

 

Dan Kadar ‏@MockingTheDraft  1h

Gettleman: "If you always go for the immediate gratification, you'll get burned. You're looking for sustained success."

 

Josh Norris ‏@JoshNorris  1h

Gettleman paused for seven seconds while Jace Amaro's name was being read. This means... MY COLUMN:

 

Bill Voth ‏@billvoth  1h

Off podium, Gettleman: “our free agency is going to be the same as last year.” Means band-aids & one-year deals.

 

Marc Sessler ‏@MarcSesslerNFL  1h

Gettleman says agents & players 'don't understand' that the money isn't there for teams to spend because of sluggish cap growth. #Panthers

 

Joe Person ‏@josephperson  57m

Gettleman: Even if cap goes to $130M, doesn't mean Panthers will spend to the cap.

No it's a position probably in need of two OTs thinking longterm for sure whether gross comes back or not, but are we really not thinking seriously about weapons? Cam gona throw to Byron bell?

I agree with it, games are won and lost at the line of scrimmage. Doesn't matter how many receivers you have if you're running for your life and there's no run game.

Drafts deep no reason we can't get two OT and two WR! Just seen a quote gettleman said answer is on your roster, a guy like Brenton Bersin! I mean really? I hope that's a throwaway remark

You need to stop this chicken little sky is falling act. The WR class is so deep this year we are fine if we don't take one in the first. Calm down we are of course thinking about weapons

I think people are reading way too far into his remarks. He reiterated his core philosophy, he didn't rule anything out.

I don't care about first round or not, gettleman is open doesn't hide much but when asked about this one position he's just talks like we have five megatrons there, a few journalists are reading into his smitty comments also that he's part of the evaluation process, that's suprised many because he's prob the only lock at WR you would have thought next season, it's a position neglected for far to long, id sacrifice hardy for better weapons on offense and I agree we need big better bodies on the line, I have been watching bell the pat few seasons I know we need talent there.
