Captain Morgan

looks like the Jags got more than a good player. They got a good person

we're in the top 4, coming up after the break

Saints would have been wise to skip QB this year anyway, get some good players in preparation for the qb they will take in the 1st next year. OT was the perfect pick for this scenario, and they have a good chance at picking 3rd or 4th next year.

the result of rapid fire coaching changes and resulting scheme changes. Riverboat, Reich and Rhule. We started fresh with Canales and Morgan, and they had about 3 pieces to the future, and 2 have dealt with significant injuries. However, watching the interviews with our draftees, you can tell their is a culture building campaign happening and I like it a lot. We will improve more than many of us think next year, and another good draft should give us a good chance to win the division.

JaTravis Broughton, CB (TCU) Ryan Fitzgerald, K (Florida State) Ethan Garbers, QB (UCLA) Jacolby George, WR (Miami) Isaac Gifford, S (Nebraska) Jared Harrison-Hunte, DE (SMU) Jack Henderson, S (Minnesota) Kobe Hudson, WR (Central Florida) Luke Kandra, OL (Cincinnati) Steven Losoya, OL (Vanderbilt) Kayron Lynch-Adams, RB (Michigan State) Bam Martin-Scott, LB (South Carolina) Moose Muhammad III, WR (Texas A&M) Tuasivi Nomura, LB (Fresno State) Bryce Pierre, TE (UCLA) Michael Reid, CB (South Dakota) Michael Tarquin, OL (Oklahoma) Trevian Thomas, S (Arkansas State) Corey Thornton, CB (Louisville) Fitzgerald was thought to be a potential Day 3 pick after a stellar senior year at Florida State. He converted all 13 of his field goal tries with a 100% conversion rate that led all FBS kickers with at least 12 attempts. Fitzgerald was also perfect on his 14 extra points. He will compete with Matthew Wright for the Panthers’ kicking job in training camp. Harrison-Hunte went undrafted despite a strong showing at the Combine. He’s an older prospect who will turn 25 by the start of his rookie year, but he had just one season of sustained production at SMU after five years at Miami. Still, he earned first-team All-ACC honors in 2024 with 8.5 tackles for loss and 6.5 sacks and will push for a roster spot in Carolina as an athletic interior disruptor. more at the link https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/05/panthers-sign-19-undrafted-free-agents

damn, I love this kid. Polite, positive, no ego, excited to be here, a little nervous about the media...very charming attributes. This is the first interview I've watched with him. Hot damn guys and gals I think we got a steal.

Former league executive and current NFL.com analyst Marc Ross recently named his top second-year breakout candidates for the upcoming campaign. Ross includes Legette, who may be helped out by his team's latest first-round selection. He writes: Legette had a slow start to his NFL career, catching 49 passes for 497 yards and four touchdowns last season. Some of the struggles can be tied to his own growing pains -- he had eight drops on 81 targets, according to Pro Football Focus -- but he had also had to navigate the quarterback shuffle between Bryce Young and Andy Dalton early in Dave Canales' first season leading the Panthers. Canales recently said he believes Carolina has a DK Metcalf-like talent in Legette, who had foot surgery this offseason but was cleared to resume work in early April, and that having a full offseason alongside Young, who took a significant step forward in 2024, could lead to a breakout result in 2025. I anticipate it will also help that Carolina invested another first-round pick in a wide receiver, Arizona's Tetairoa McMillan, to complement Legette in the pass game. McMillan's presence, however, could take some pressure off Legette—who may be able to roam around in a more natural playmaking role. With the 6-foot-4 All-American likely to take on the bulk of the volume from Young, Legette should have some cleaner shots to break out downfield and in the box score. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/06/panthers-wr-xaiver-legette-top-breakout-candidates-2025/83475176007/?taid=681a4610ede05d000149b376&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

I hope XL works out, he cracks me up

video clip here...that boy don't have to say anything funny....everything he says makes me laugh https://www.si.com/nfl/xavier-legette-explains-not-reaching-out-tetairoa-mcmillan-panthers-draft

or you could call him Bomanicious I'm going with King Tet

he is hilarious and he embraces it. This is gonna be early David Letterman good. I love how the league is falling in love with him.

read this article earlier today, noted this....he's getting better In 2024, he earned career-highs from Pro Football Focus in his overall offensive grade (71.7) and run-blocking grade (80.5) while earning a 95.9-percent efficiency rate in pass protection. also like that he thinks we are on the verge of greatness....I can feel it....gotta take a step this season but I think we'll have a team unity unlike anything since 2015. Canales is building the team, and the players are improving which coaching for the first time I can remember

and sounds like one is incoming shortly Carolina Panthers president of football operations and general manager Dan Morgan joined 99.9 The Fan's The Drive with Tim Donnelly on Wednesday. While chatting about his haul from the 2025 NFL draft, specifically fifth-round pick Lathan Ransom, Morgan was asked if the team is still on the lookout for a free safety. "Yeah, we're definitely gonna explore some guys that are still out there," he replied. "But drafting a guy like Lathan, I just think he brings that demeanor and that mentality that we're looking for—that physical presence out there, that tone-setter-type mentality. As for who's out there on the open market, Julian Blackmon and Marcus Williams—both of whom visited with the Panthers back in late March—could still be on Morgan's radar. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/01/panthers-dan-morgan-free-agency-safety-nfl-draft/83375411007/?taid=681356b281b2ac00012a7808&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter
