Captain Morgan

the personal problems is something that would have to be checked out, but I'd do it. That's how we got Greg Olsen. He was a first round pick and we traded a 3rd for him a couple of years later. He became our best TE ever

I'm in love with Emmanwori...just don't think he'll be there at our late 2nd. He is playmaker, which is what we need. Getting Jalon in the first and Nick in the 2nd would have a huge impact on our defense Mike Kaye @mike_e_kaye · 28m Nick Emmanwori is an #athlete and a half. Damn. 4.38 second 40 at 6-3 and 220 lbs. His 11'6" broad is elite. UPDATE: He had a 43-inch vert.

mine too

He was never charged. However, two is a lot more concerning than one

I remember when Jordan sent a broom to Cam after they swept us, but I've always had mad respect for him as a player. Liked what he said about Adam and Bryce though. Seems like a good guy. Saints got lucky with him.

he said this morning he will not have the surgery https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/02/abdul-carter-has-stress-fracture-in-foot-may-have-surgery

coverage of the combine starts tomorrow on NFL Net. Jalon will not work out. other nuggets here...Mykel Williams played hurt all year. Shemar Stuart models his game after Julius Peppers. Mike Green notes he was never charged in the 2 incidents that have him teams asking about. Abdul is training with Micah Parsons. https://www.panthers.com/news/combine-notebook-julius-peppers-thomas-davis-abdul-carter-mike-green

We haven't met with Jeanty. Saints have though Ryan Fowler @_RyanFowler_ · Follow The following teams have formal meetings scheduled with Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty, per source: • Giants • Broncos • Vikings • Steelers • Colts • Bears • Chargers • Ravens • Saints

glad they're behind us

D. Orlando Ledbetter @DOrlandoAJC · 6h #Falcons to have defensive draft: None of the Falcons assistant offensive coaches will attend the combine. The Falcons are using all 45 of their interview meetings on defensive players.

I'm still concerned about Mays. He looks good in between the two guards we paid for. If we bring Corbett back it better be for cheap. We gave him a lot of money, and he missed a lot of games to injury. Not his fault, but if he's not cheap let him go. We have 2 4ths and 3 5ths in the draft. Spend one on a center and let them compete. It buys us time while we prepare for Hunt's next contract, with us or someone else.

Abdul Carter will not work out this week due to an injury he suffered in the Penn State game. He is expected to be ok for his pro day. Defensive linemen and linebacks began team meetings today.

I remember when he was at Wake Forest

I won't be surprised if Sanders drops because of his interviews

https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/1893029131933360521 The #Panthers have pushed back C Austin Corbett’s void deadline on his contract to March 11, a league source confirms. Over The Cap had the initial report. The push back gives Carolina and Corbett more time to negotiate a new deal. While it doesn’t guarantee anything, a new deal could also help save the Panthers cap space before the new league year. So, something worth monitoring. his void year this year is 7 mill. Another 3 mill next year

FEBRUARY 21: The deal is now official, and Over the Cap notes Dalton’s locked in compensation includes a $2.65MM signing bonus. Thanks to a 2027 void year, his cap charges will check in at $3.2MM and $5.85MM for the next two seasons while serving as a cost-effective backup in Carolina. FEBRUARY 18: The Panthers have signed quarterback Andy Dalton to a two-year, $8MM extension, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The deal includes $6MM in fully guaranteed money with a maximum value of $10MM. Dalton will be under contract in Carolina through the 2026 season and can continue his mentorship of former No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young, with whom he has a “close relationship,” according to Schefter. Both quarterbacks earned praise from within and without the Panthers organization for how they handled the tumultuous 2024 season. https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/02/panthers-sign-andy-dalton-to-extension

This move will generate a dead money charge of $2.5MM but it will yield $3.35MM in savings for Carolina. The team was already mid-pack in the NFL in terms of spending power as free agency approaches, but additional funds will help Carolina’s efforts in improving a defense which ranked 23rd against the pass in 2024. The Panthers hope to work out an extension with Horn this offseason, and keeping fellow starter Michael Jackson in the fold on a new pact is also a priority. Cornerback could be a position to watch with respect to at least one notable addition over the coming months, but in any case Dane Jackson will not be part of Carolina’s plans. https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/02/panthers-release-cb-dane-jackson

really afraid of that. We know Carter and Graham will be gone. I think both QBs will go before us, and a LT. Then we have a choice to make. Take from what's left or trade back if possible. I really hope one of the 3 will fall. It would help if Dart and someone else blows up the combine and becomes a top 7 pick. I was leaning Tmac for a while but really think we need a first round d player to the rebuild started.

Neither QB. no S. No linebackers 3 edge. Abdul, Jalon and Mykel Williams. 2 CBs: Johnson and Jahdae Barron 1 DT: Mason Graham "we aren't talking about how many players will ultimately be drafted in Round 1; we're talking about how many carry a true Round 1 grade. The average draft class has roughly 15 players who are deemed "first-round talents," though the number varies by team and scouting department. These sacred evaluations are reserved for prospects who would be Day 1 selections regardless of year, and my own guideline is whether a player would have been a first-rounder in each of the past five classes. To compare, the final list in 2024 had 18 names on it, and the 2023 list had 20. There is still time for things to change and that number to grow, but here are the players who deserve a first-round grade on my board right now. https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft2025/insider/story/_/id/43171016/2025-nfl-draft-board-prospects-first-round-grades-comps

Bears might let WR Keenan Allan go in FA https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/02/bears-open-to-letting-keenan-allen-teven-jenkins-depart-in-free-agency

did not know that

I hope Green becomes a great player. No offense to Marshall and the Fun Belt, but it's hard to imagine someone who racked up great numbers in a G5 conference having an easy transition to the NFL. Our first 2 picks need to hit the field running on day 1.
