quite impressive

Marty Hurney's finest work

Keyshawn Colmon was hired as the Sacramento State wide receivers coach in February 2024. Colmon came to the Hornets from Fresno State where he served as an offensive graduate assistant in 2023. While with the Bulldogs, Colmon assisted with the wide receivers where four players finished the year with 500 or more yards receiving including two with 700-plus receiving yards. In his first season with the team, Colmon had three receivers recorded at least 600 receiving yards, becoming just the third trio in school history to achieve the feat. Jared Gipson was named second team all-Big Sky after catching 56 passes for a team-high 797 yards and nine touchdowns. Anderson Grover led the Hornets with 59 receptions for 782 yards and seven scores while redshirt freshman Danny Scudero was named an FCS Freshman All-American with 53 grabs for 667 yards and five TDs. The three combined for seven 100-yard games during the season. Colmon’s coaching career began with the Dayton, where he was a graduate assistant in 2022. That year, the Flyers went 8-3 overall and 6-2 in the Pioneer Football League. The Youngstown, Ohio native played collegiately at John Carroll University from 2018-21, where he was a wide receiver. He played in 22 career games, with a season shortened to the COVID-19 pandemic, and totaled 41 receptions for 624 yards and six touchdowns. He graduated from John Carroll in 2022 with a degree in sports studies. https://hornetsports.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/keyshawn-colmon/1286

Panthers re-signed LS J.J. Jansen. Jansen, who just turned 39 last month, will be back for a 17th season with the Panthers. Jansen has played in 260 career games and continues to raise the bar for long snappers around the league. A true master of his craft, we look forward to see how Jansen grows his legacy in 2025.

Jansen, 39, originally signed on with the Packers as an undrafted free agent out of Notre Dame back in 2008. He was later traded to the Panthers for a conditional seventh-round pick. Jansen played out a four-year deal and signed a five-year extension with the Panthers in 2016. Since that deal expired, he’s been going year to year with Carolina. In 2024, Jansen appeared in all 17 games for the Panthers as their long snapper.

I really enjoyed the behind the scenes look at how Harold Goodwin coaches the run game and Joe Gilbert coaches the pass game.

Round 1, No. 8: Jalon Walker, LB/edge, Georgia The Panthers lost a valuable, versatile player when Frankie Luvu signed with the Washington Commanders last year in free agency. That left Evero without a guy he could use as an off-ball linebacker, bring on blitzes or drop in coverage — the type of hybrid player who can thrive in a 3-4 scheme. Enter Walker, a native of Salisbury, N.C., who played off the ball for the Bulldogs but has the athleticism and playmaking traits to be a “slash” defender at the next level, i.e., linebacker/edge rusher. Round 2, No. 57: Alfred Collins, DT, Texas With Shy Tuttle a strong possibility to be a salary-cap cut, the Panthers need a big, burly nose tackle to line up between Brown and A’Shawn Robinson. Maybe Dan Morgan will find that brute in free agency. If not, he should give a long look to Collins, a 6-5, 320- pounder who played in 63 games across five seasons for the Longhorns. With his long arms, Collins showed a knack for knocking down passes: He had seven in 2024, when he also blocked a kick. Round 3, No. 74: Andrew Mukuba, S, Texas Morgan executed a Texas two-step in his first year as GM by taking Longhorn teammates Jonathon Brooks and Ja’Tavion Sanders in the first four rounds. Could Morgan double down with a Texas defensive tandem this year? Hard to say, but there’s a lot to like about Mukuba, who was born in Zimbabwe, moved to Austin when he was 9 and spent his first three seasons at Clemson. Mukuba does not shy from contact, as evidenced by his 11 tackles in the SEC Championship Game, including the one he laid on QB Gunner Stockton. But he also can be a ball hawk: His game-sealing interception in the quarterfinals against Arizona State was his fifth of the season, which tied for the SEC lead. Round 4, No. 110: Cobee Bryant, CB, Kansas Corner isn’t viewed as a pressing need for the Panthers. But that could change in a hurry if Dane Jackson becomes a cap casualty and unrestricted free agent Mike Jackson isn’t re-signed. The 5-11, 171-pound Bryant is a little smaller than what the Panthers usually look for in corners, owing to the years Morgan and Dave Canales were in Seattle. But Bryant showed at the East-West Shrine Bowl practices that he doesn’t mind playing physical man coverage, which brought a couple of penalty flags. But it’s hard to argue with Bryant’s confidence and his ball-hawking resume at Kansas, where he intercepted 13 passes — including two he returned for touchdowns. Round 4, No. 113: Charles Grant, OT, William & Mary Finally, the first offensive player shows up in the mock. Picking Grant would represent another first for the Panthers, who have never drafted a player from William & Mary (or Clemson, famously). Thomas Jefferson’s alma mater has turned out a couple of fair NFL coaches in Mike Tomlin and Sean McDermott. But NFL scouts made their way to Williamsburg, Va., in the fall to check out Grant, a 6-4, 300-pounder who spurned potential transfer opportunities to stay with the Tribe. W&M coach Mike London called Grant “a freak of nature,” and CBS reported he’s posted a 32-inch vertical jump while being clocked at more than 21 mph on a GPS. The Panthers overhauled their guard position last year. But it’s probably time to start thinking about an eventual successor for Taylor Moton, who turns 31 in August and dealt with a couple of injuries in 2024. Round 5, No. 141: Brashard Smith, RB, SMU Running back is another sneaky position of need for the Panthers, given that Miles Sanders is another expected cut and Brooks likely will miss most if not all of 2025 after his second ACL surgery. Morgan took a second-round gamble last year on Brooks. But there are intriguing backs to be found in later rounds — like Smith, a former Miami receiver who racked up nearly 1,700 scrimmage yards and 18 touchdowns after converting to RB with the Mustangs. Smith would complement Chuba Hubbard as a change-of-pace back who can catch and motor: His 22.1 mph clocking on a 71-yard run versus Pittsburgh Round 5, No. 147: Kyle McCord, QB, Syracuse Young’s Year 2 turnaround was the most important development in the Panthers’ 2024 season. But they could be in the market for a backup if they let Andy Dalton walk and choose not to sign a quarterback. Even if Dalton or another veteran is the No. 2 behind Young, former Green Bay Packers GM Ron Wolf believed in drafting a quarterback every year, even if they didn’t necessarily need one. Why? Because someone else invariably wi Round 5, No. 161: Terrell Tonka Hemingway, DT, South Carolina Much like Collins, Hemingway is an interior athlete who played a lot of college football. Hemingway’s 61 games were tied for the most in school history. Hemingway left Columbia with 9 1/2 career sacks, 19 hurries, 11 pass breakups and six fumble recoveries. He also scored on a 2-yard TD run against Jacksonville State in 2023. Hemingway would be the eighth Gamecocks player drafted by the Panthers — or eight more than their Clemson draftees. Round 7, No. 229: Jamon Dumas-Johnson, LB, Kentucky Dumas-Johnson (6-1, 245) is a little bigger than Trevin Wallace, the Kentucky linebacker the Panthers took in the third round last year. The Georgia transfer led the Wildcats with 67 tackles last fall and returned a fumble for a touchdown. He followed that with a strong showing at the East-West Shrine Bowl.

Yeah but apparently it's one of the deepest RB classes in several years, I wouldn't be mad if they took one rounds 5-7
