  1. 2023 NFL Draft: It’s Buyer Beware for Carolina Panthers with Bryce Young https://www.the33rdteam.com/category/nfl-draft/2023-nfl-draft-its-buyer-beware-for-carolina-panthers-with-bryce-young/
  2. There are better EDGE options in free agency (Ngokoue, Clowney, Ingram, Leonard Floyd) than there are free agent CB's
  3. It sure feels like there’s nothing really left other than for Roger Goodell to get to the stage and spit Young’s name out, a little at 8 p.m. ET on Thursday. The Panthers weren’t sure who they’d take when they traded for the first pick, a little over six weeks ago, but my sense is their baseline, as far as who they were comfortable spending all that capital on, at the time, was Young. And Young never relinquished his lead over the pack. He crushed his meeting with new Panthers coach Frank Reich. He scored a 98 on the S2 cognitive test, one that Carolina owner David Tepper is said to be a big believer in. The Teppers spent time with Young’s parents at Alabama’s Pro Day. There is, of course, concern over Young’s size, from a durability standpoint. But he’s checked about every other box since https://www.si.com/nfl/2023/04/24/draft-team-needs-pick-predictions-analysis
  4. I think we draft one at #39 and sign an EDGE free agent after the draft
  5. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2023/04/24/fmia-peter-king-mock-draft-bryce-young-panthers/
  6. exactly. so the current roster stands at 65 which is light but with a new coaching staff it makes sense. with 6 draft picks that brings us to 71 so 19 spots to fill big UDFA class this year
  7. I don't think the Panthers believe LB is a high value position so Sanders or jack Campbell would not be considered at #39 I'm sure they like them but there are other position, mainly EDGE and CB that are more important than LB
  8. I'd forgotten about Byron Bell Haven't been this excited since Super Bowl 50 week
  9. you can see there's a nice pool of 2nd round graded players that they like. Possible trade down scenario from #39 to mid 2nd round
  10. In his breakdown of this year’s passing prospects, Tom Pelissero quotes one AFC general manager who seems quite convinced it’s a done deal between Young and Carolina:
