Ask my wife. She once pee'd in her pants for real listening to me try to make my outgoing voicemail message years ago without sounding like Foghorn Leghorn drunk.prove it
And Mel gave Carolina a B-.Yates also listed Barrett as one of his 5 favorite picks in round 7.

True, but we see a zillion highly paid NFL front office people get things wrong every year, especially from the Panthers.Realize everyone is grasping for NFL news in the off-season, but non-NFL front office people's takes or NFL Team draft grades are meaningless.
NFL teams have more money than God. They have a zillion scouts, analysts, cross checkers and related front office people that redundantly watch every college play of every player drafted or signed as a free agent (in addition to the background checks, talking to college staffs, assistants); just look at the bloated draft "war rooms" during their draft. Each NFL team's analysis is deeper than any NFL draft carnival barker who gets paid for "hot takes". The man hours that each NFL team puts into making their draft picks is multiple times ahead of any individual or third party organization's analysis.
Who cares what PFF, Mel Kiper or any other third party gasbag thinks about a team's draft haul? If these touts were really that perceptive and better than the NFL teams in evaluating talent, they wouldn't be working at PFF, they would be working in an NFL front office.
I get the 10,000 foot takes critiquing the Falcons for taking Penix when the Falcons just signed Cousins (which is blantantly obvious), but will never believe that these third-party touts know more than NFL teams about who was a value pick in the 4th round or 6th round. It's all bullshit. To
Absolutely because projecting who will excel at another level in any sport (football, baseball, even basketball) has many variables that aren't predictable (like who will get hurt; who will stay motivated). This unpredictability makes it even more of a guessing game when one person or even a group tries to evaluate the quality of all 32 NFL teams draft board. Crazy to me that anyone believes that within a day of the draft, they can predict how a group of players from each drafted team will pan out. What a joke.True, but we see a zillion highly paid NFL front office people get things wrong every year, especially from the Panthers.

Agree that the same teams typically draft better than other teams, but any evaluation exercise (right after a draft) is beyond that is foolish. It would make more sense to evaluate the 2021 draft board of each team. That has actual objective criteria that can be used to grade teams against each other.

In part this just proves that 31 of those well-paid NFL staffs you cite are to some degree just as clueless as everyone else.FWIW, the Rams picked the runner-up for the NFL Defensive ROY with their third round pick, Kobie Turner. Then, in the fifth round, the Rams picks the runner-up for the NFL Offensive ROY with Puka Nucua. The Rams made the playoffs last year, when no one thought they would, in large part because of their contributions.
Bryce should be eligible for rookie of the year in 2024 given what he had to work with last year. That shouldn't even count
Wake fan here, so what is this optimism you speak of? Are we doing that?The panthers suck and the draft sucked let’s not start this bullshit optimism and coping.
You may be right about 99% of the non-NFL 3rd party analysts but you’ll never convince me that cville doesn’t know everything there is to know about every drafted and non-drafted player AND definitely more than these NFL front offices.
