    Good videos...

    Johnson looks like a steal in the third.

    I wish Robinson's video had more punt returns in it. The one it did show, he seemed to have good vision. Not super fast, but at least it looked better than catch the ball and fall foward for two yards...

    That's cause all those MAC players are just as fast.

    He ran a 4.6 at the combine. Then "tweaked" the ACL right before Miami's Pro day, and didn't run. Ran about a week later, and that's where the 4.7 came from.

    Most everyone at another forum agrees Panthers had the best draft. They are fans of a wide variety of teams so it's not like they are Panther homers. I've also seen quite a bit of praise from the major sporting news sources.

    I'm quite happy with the draft.

    considering that this draft class is apparently weaker overall than years past and the picks we initially had to deal with I am THRILLED with this draft! :champagne:

    Kalil looks to have the fastest first step of any center I`ve noticed. Beason looks to hit with attitude. Shaw reminds me of Tufts. Wilson has some damn sticky hands to be on defense.

    Witherspoon wasn't the elite rangy guy either. He's fast enough to be outside, and I don't think that they'd put Shaw there. We'll see how it turns out, but he's a guy who I think is a very good fit weakside. It might be partially a function of thinking Shaw is a guy I wouldn't mind seeing inside but Beason I'd rather have in space than in trash.

    Yeah, it's not like what I would've done, but it (and the rest of the draft) really just goes back to Fox's tendencies. Stop the run, run the ball.

    it's been something we've all screamed for, for a while now. I think for a while people got enamored with the good-time story of Smart and didn't realize how much he fucking blew.

    and having Jarrett in a three wide set is probably for the best for him - he can work a guy rather than work a defense.
