I think tackle and center are coming in the draft. We are probably going to go into the draft arguing about which Tackle to take with our first only to pass over those options for a random RAS BPA. Tackle in the second.
In the mean time, give me Matt Milano and John Metchie. Fill out the roster w some cheap vets.
I’ve been saying Matt Milano at value and draft a guy. Should give us immediate upgrade at two spots, and give the rookie a year or two to glean wisdom from a vet.
Traded back and took Freeling then traded up for Anthony Hill Jr. All current year draft picks. I usually like to accumulate a lot of darts to throw but I feel like these are all locks.
Idk how to say his first name but every time I see it, it makes me think of this girl on Saved By the Bell that was ragdolling Zack and called him “Zacky”. So, with that, I’m firmly on the band wagon.
I would think hard about going OT, OT to start the draft. It gives you two shots at landing someone that can start right away which we desperately need. If somehow we hit on both, then you just solved our impending RT problem.
I’d like Gabe Jacas in middle rounds. Athletic 6’3” 275. Seems like he could be OLB in current system or traditional DE if we were to ever change back schemes.
2x state wrestling champ. I love having linemen w martial arts or wrestling backgrounds - they understand leverage and it shows on the field.
I think he should be our target. We have possession WRs in McMillan and Coker. We need someone with speed that can occupy safeties but also that can threaten to hit big YAC plays on screens and smoke routes the way 89 used to. I think Thompson has what we need. He is small but fast. And unlike a lot of speedsters we see, he can actually catch. He has great ball skills - something the Panthers haven’t had too much of historically.
