All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
It's not the end of the world if we don't get Vincent.
I believe TD & McNally are going to fix the OL this season meaning there is no reason the talent on this team can't make a real SB run. Unless they're planning on giving up on that for this year, they won't want a rookie starting at CB, no matter where they draft him. TD must have something up his sleeve, whether it's a FA down the road or simply staying with what they have at that spot and adding another FA OL or WR to strengthen the offense to balance the slightly weaker defense. One way or another they are going to use the cap room to make the starting roster stronger so stay tuned.
hall is overrated.. i watched him for years at virginia tech.. he got beat all the time.. he is just really fast, and good at kick returns.. he is really good at that though.

The Panthers went pretty far with a rookie CB.
I'd rather have the best CB in the draft than an old "average" overpriced FA.
We already have 2 corners that haven't had a chance to shine. Give them a chance. How did we know that Clements would be any good unless he had a chance? How do we know that the two we have couldn't do at least a decent job and learn from the experience?

True but Donohoe has always stated you can't have enough corners.
I agree, we can't have enough. But using a first round pick on a corner when we have 2 guys already here that may be able to do the job is a waste in my opinion. McGee and Thomas have done a decent enough job as the Nickel corner to at least get a shot at moving to the next level and being the #2. Don't you think?

You're taking a pretty big chance. I'd take a chance with McGee, Thomas and a #1 draft pick CB.
Yeah, great...let's take the 13th pick and take another CB and not address WR or DE...that makes sense...NOT! TD needs to fix some of these holes via FA and leave only 1 position that we need an immediate impact player at via the draft. This team is not good enough to have all these rookies starting on it! Sorry, folks.
