Here are our picks for the biggest steal for each of the 32 teams from the 2021 NFL draft: Carolina Panthers--Guard Deonte Brown 193th Overall

The single-digit selection of No. 8, the number Bryant wore in the first half of his NBA career with the Los Angeles Lakers from 1997 to 2006, will certainly be quite a different look in the secondary come game day. Horn also appeared to have considered No. 21 and No. 24, Bryant’s second number he donned from 2007 to 2016, in the process.In the end, we can say he certainly nailed it. His No. 8 may not only signify his exact draft position, but also a true fandom to one of the most influential and impactful athletes in history.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-first-round-pick-jaycee-113615846.html Jaycee Horn has settled on his jersey number with the Carolina Panthers. Horn announced on social media Saturday night that he will be wearing No. 8 for the Panthers. As part of a new league rule that allows for wider jersey number flexibility, cornerbacks are now able to wear single-digit jerseys. He is wearing the number to honor Kobe Bryant, who wore both 8 and 24 with the Los Angeles Lakers. When asked about No. 24 specifically he said, “It is a great number. It’s definitely in mind. I’m going to look at some of those single digits too though, see how those work out. My brother was talking to me about it on the way over here and changed my mind a little bit so we’ll see how it shakes out.” Horn wore No. 1 and 7 during his time at South Carolina. Other rookies have announced their new numbers with the Panthers. Tight end Tommy Tremble shared he will be wearing No. 82 and fourth-round pick running back Chuba Hubbard will be wearing No. 30, the same as his number at Oklahoma State.

Tommy Tremble projects as an F-tight end in the NFL, a flex weapon that will be best served in an offense that doesn’t charge him with playing with his hand in the dirt. Tremble is a plus athlete who offers the long speed and agility to be dynamic as a pass-catcher, but his production to this point has yet to make the leap that you’d want to see to feel confident that he’s going to develop into an upper-level tight end at some point. Tremble has spent his career at Notre Dame caught behind the likes of Cole Kmet and 2020 freshman star Michael Mayer; he’s been the TE2 who is charged with moving around the set or blocking on the perimeter to set up runs and screens to the outside. Tremble’s potential is significant and his effort as a role player has been admirable, so you’ll feel fairly good that Tremble has the right makeup to stick as a developmental player while working himself into a more prominent role as he continues to mature.

I don't think it was character issues that caused Daviyon Nixons draft stock to drop but more likely his poor showing at Pro Day. After such a dominant junior season, Nixons draft stock skyrocketed as high as 10th overall in some early mock drafts. But after a more earthly pro day outing he began to see his name slide down projections.

Jaycee made headlines when he began wearing No. 1 at South Carolina in 2019 after wearing No. 7 his first season. He’ll make them again if given the opportunity to wear that number with the Panthers. The only player to wear the No. 1 in team history is Cam Newton, the first pick of the 2011 draft. “I’m going to look at some of those single digits, too, see how those work out,’’ Horn said when asked what he thought if No. 24 was available.

Hog Molly for sure.

Apparently both teams had their eye on LSU wide receiver Terrace Marshall. According to Darin Gantt at the team website, the Panthers were tipped off via phone call that New Orleans was targetting Marshall with the No. 60 overall pick. The Panthers changed course and decided to snag Marshall one spot earlier.

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/report-panthers-were-tipped-off-210033068.html The Panthers and the Saints have shown interest in many of the same players this last year and a half since Joe Brady was hired as offensive coordinator. Brady previously served as an assistant for Sean Payton and runs a similar scheme, so it’s natural that their interests collide – and they certainly have. Last year there was the whole Tommy Stevens saga. Additionally, the Panthers have brought in a number of former Saints players like Tommylee Lewis, Keith Kirkwood and Teddy Bridgewater. A couple months ago the Saints poached long-time Panthers fullback Alex Armah, signing him to a one-year deal. The intrigue continued in the 2021 NFL draft, where apparently both teams had their eye on LSU wide receiver Terrace Marshall. According to Darin Gantt at the team website, the Panthers were tipped off via phone call that New Orleans was targetting Marshall with the No. 60 overall pick. The Panthers changed course and decided to snag Marshall one spot earlier. - ADVERTISEMENT -That’s a nice victory for the Panthers over the Saints, who have won four straight and eight of the last nine meetings between these teams. As for Marshall, we’re projecting he will be the WR3 on the roster behind D.J. Moore and Robby Anderson. During his college career, Marshall lined up both outside and in the slot. Tight end Dan Arnold should offer competition, but it’s not hard to imagine Marshall becoming Sam Darnold’s go-to option in the red zone once he’s up to speed.

Jaycee Horn has a rare combination of size and agility. He’s over six feet and is extremely smooth in and out of breaks. His first step seems to be a lot quicker than any other 6 foot corners this year. I think he was the best one in the draft and worthy of our # 8 pick pick. He is a future pro bowl type player and may wind up as the best CB in Panthers history.

Ri.I.P. Jake Ehlinger. My heart felt sorrow goes out to this family that is hurting after suffering the loss of two loved ones in a short period of time.

Here is a good article pertaining to S/CB Bobby McCain's release. https://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/miami-dolphins/fl-sp-dolphins-bobby-mccain-released-20210506-hi3hmdtwsng7ngkiuwplr3keru-story.html McCain was an extension of Flores on the field. And it was his unit’s strong play that allowed the Dolphins front seven to deliver the exotic blitzing that produced the majority of Miami’s 41 sacks in 2020. McCain has pulled down seven interceptions in the 87 games he’s played for the Dolphins, which includes 55 starts. Last season McCain registered 46 tackles and one interception in 16 games.

It's all on Sam Darnold now and we'll see if he can throw deep with accuracy and touch like the critics say he can! However, we need to make sure he has a decent OL and will not have to run for his life the way he did with the Jets. I can see this matchup working out for Darnold, the team and Joe Brady since he has a better QB for his play calling. Let's remember though, this will be the first year Darnold has had a legitimate QB coach his entire career, going back to his two USC years.

There are several teams that would love an opportunity to acquire Aaron Rodgers if the Green Bay Packers decide to part ways with the three-time MVP, but one continues to be mentioned as the most likely suitor. In an appearance on “Get Up!” Tuesday morning, ESPN’s Dianna Russini reported that the Denver Broncos appear to be more interested in Rodgers than any other team. The belief is that they are going to offer the most for the 37-year-old if and when a formal offer is made. For what it's worth the oddsmakers also say that Denver would be the favorite if Rodgers were traded.

There is no way the Panthers mortgaged their future for Darnold because they were able to make a deal for him without having to trade any first-round picks, including this year's 8th overall pick, and kept each of their picks of the first five rounds in 2021. They risked very little for an opportunity to have their guy of the future at quarterback. Whether or not Darnold is the long-term solution is to be determined but they are taking a flyer on a 23-year-old quarterback who has a lot of talent and potential. If Matt Rhule and Joe Brady can elevate his game to the next level to become a respectable starting quarterback, the Panthers will win this trade. Not to mention, the coaching and personnel surrounding Darnold in New York was no help. He'll now have a lot of that with the Panthers.
