Wish they would play some other music. I had oral surgery today and this trash is making my head throb worse.

Here representing with the family. I live 20 minutes from here.

I wouldn't bet a paycheck but I also occasionally play the lotto if it's approaching a billion dollar jackpot so I guess sacrificing a dollar on the Panthers to win it all might be better odds. . .IDK.

. . .no. . .

Well crap. Biggest game of the year week 12 against the Chiefs I'll miss visiting Volcano National Park in Hilo. Week 13 against the Bucs I'll miss while being in an outrigger canoe on a river in Raiatea.

If there's any consolation it's that there's no Thursday night game.

Based on what you saw last year with Young's struggles, if you were an UDFA QB looking for an opportunity wouldn't you jump at the chance to sign with the Panthers?

Center for sure but yeah. Another tackle would have been nice. But shoot, a couple of the good centers we passed up could have played at guard or tackle and had experience there.

Another wasted pick. . . . . .this will go down as a historically bad draft for Carolina. Jaden Crumedy DL, MISSST 6-5 / 305 LBS Rating: 69.70 (Role player) Pro Comparison: Levi Onwuzurike Summary Jaden Crumedy is a sixth-year DT with positional versatility because of his length, fluidity and natural power. Looks like an NFL DT right now. Best out at 5T where there's more space for him to operate. Burst and bend are showcased out there, and his hand work flashes are impressive, although at times, he's gets lazy and blockers easily get into his pads. Works blocker's edges well and will scrape/spin off blocks, although it's somewhat of a rarity that he gets clean quickly. Not a double-team eater, and for as clearly athletically gifted as he is, he's not in the backfield much. High motor. Will miss a lot of tackles and not an awesome block-shedder right now. Hands are not exactly active. There's some intrigue to his game because of the variety of his positional usage and his burst/bend, but not a ton of upside because of his age and lack of pass-rush move deployment. About Career: 53 games played (47 starts, including 39 consecutive) 2023: Career-high 35 tackles Strengths Has the frame to play multiple spots up front Flashed pass-rush moves at 5T High motor Weaknesses For as athletic as he is, rarely in the backfield Doesn't deploy his length how he should, easily controlled One of the oldest prospects in the class

Geez o Pete we're pathetic. I'm getting to be an old man and I doubt at this rate I'll ever see a good Panthers team again. Chau Smith-Wade? What a waste of a pick.

Phillies secondary is going to be scary.

Errrrr. . .just saw who he went to. Maybe bad. I didn't want him for us with the other needs we have but I didn't want him in the division either.

Good

Mark my word. . . we're going to regret we didn't take a center when we had a chance in rounds 2 thru 4.

Fug me. . .that was my next pick. I was actually looking for us to go up for him soon.

Right now Sedrick Van Pran-Granger is who I'm looking for at our next pick.

I'm thinking Sam Hartman with our last pick. Or go after him if he's an UDFA.

I mocked Cowing to us several times at 141 but more often than not he wasn't there.

Houston taking care of Stroud with that pick.

After their 1st round hiccup, I think the Falcons have made some good solid picks. They're going a long way in helping their defense.

Yes! Sanders. The 1st pick for us in this draft I'm legitimately happy with.

Based on everything they've done up til now. . . there's no way I could predict anything they're going to do except it will be unexpected.

So do we continue the trend of trading every original pick or will we actually take a player with this pick?

He's also the 5th fastest player in the draft. I wonder how he would do as a kick returner.

Trevin Wallace LB, UK 6-2 / 241 LBS Grade Analysis No grade analysis available. Rating: 70.80 (Part-time contributor) Pro Comparison: Kaden Elliss Summary Trevin Wallace is a stocky-ish but springy off-ball LB. Fast when he wants to be but really struggles beating blocks to the football. Will overtly avoid blocks to take himself out of the play on a routine basis. Not around the football much in coverage but demonstrated a keen sense of sinking in zone and has the athletic chops to run with TEs and RBs in man. That type of plus explosive athlete. Just doesn't always fully tap into it. Hip fluidity is good. Quality tackler. Rare to see a miss on film. Just needs to play with more authority/passion when tracking the football against the run. Has the explosiveness to be a stud blitzer but way too timid in those situations. Flexibility is lacking to work around the edges of blockers. Flashes of athleticism to be a good three-down 'backer in the NFL. Needs to crank the intensity tracking the football. Strengths Serious juice to the football when he sees his target Fluid enough to sink in coverage Awesome tackler Weaknesses Has huge problems beating blocks / tries to avoid them Needs to play with more passion and energy
