Dane Brugler Mock Draft 1.0 (from The Athletic)
MHS831 replied to Mr. Scot's topic in Carolina Panthers
until we have a QB, the pick has to be QB...I get the desire to draft a LT, but we can't seem to get there. -
Tanker's Special: The Teams Seeking a QB in 2022
MHS831 replied to MHS831's topic in Carolina Panthers
If he comes out, and we trade back 8-10 spots, Howell could still be on the board. We'd get Howell and a second rounder. I think Howell can play if given time. -
Teams that are certain to be picking before the Panthers in 2022 that will probably grab a QB in the 2022 draft: 1. Detroit (they should be #1 and they have draft capital) 2. Houston (if they make a trade before the draft, they can grab any player they want after Detroit picks--and Houston will be picking top 5 regardless) Teams that will be picking around where the Panthers pick in the draft that need a QB are: 1. Pittsburgh 2. Washington A few teams that MIGHT be in the market are: Vikings, Giants, Broncos, Saints, Falcons, Eagles, Buccaneers A few players who will be traded during the off-season to eliminate a need: Watson- Will the Texans deal this QB during the offseason? Odds are they will. Garappolo- Even though he is starting, the 9ers will deal JG in the offseason. The college prospects: I have no idea if Howell is going to leave for the NFL or not. In my view, there are 5 who could start in the NFL and one dark horse-- Matt Corral: This year, he has shown the ability to make every NFL throw. A good passer, and he is a dual threat. (Top 10--highly unlikely that the Panthers will have this option) Kenny Pickett: Probably (arguably) the most NFL ready with his maturation and experience. (Top 20) Sam Howell: With protection and WR talent, he could be a good NFL QB. (Round 1-2) Carson Strong: Not mobile, but his arm strength and deep ball accuracy give you a player to build around. (Round 1-2) Malik Willis: A few bad games may drop him into round 2, but he has elite arm strength and mobility. (Round 1-2) Dark Horse: Bailey Zappe, Western KY: Makes all the throws with great accuracy and precision. 4200 yards, 42 TDs, 7 Ints. at the moment. (Round 1-3) https://www.profootballnetwork.com/bailey-zappe-western-kentucky-qb-nfl-draft-scouting-report-2022/ Outlook: If the Panthers want Corral or Pinkett, they may have to turn down trades and take the player when they draft. However, if they value Strong, Willis, or Howell, they might be able to pick up a second rounder by sliding back in round 1. The Panthers may not have Cam under contract next season, and could focus on using Darnold until the rookie is ready. If the Panthers have cap room, spend it on the OL if they cannot address it through the draft due to taking a QB. However, if we dropped a few spots and added a second round LT, and addressed G and C in free agency... Of course, they could trade back and grab a few OL and wait a year to address QB, but that is not a move you make in year 3 of a rebuild. I think we have no choice but to draft a QB in round 1. No, I do not see giving Cam a contract (based on what I have seen in 2018, 2019, 2020 in New England, and so far in 2021). Sorry. Not quite on that train yet. I do not see building a line and letting Darnold run this show next year. We need a QB, and I am guessing we will draft one. Going all in for Watson? Nope--we need those draft picks to meet other needs.

Happy Panther's tank thread and projected draft pick
MHS831 replied to Happy Panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
Ah, loved the movie and totally missed the allusion. however, if Tampa has their seed decided before the last game, we may see the scrubs. It is the Panther way, to win the meaningless games. -
Happy Panther's tank thread and projected draft pick
MHS831 replied to Happy Panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
Atlanta is a possible win New Orleans is a possible win Tampa Bay (week 18) is a possible win if they rest starters. -
Cam Newton should be done as a starting QB in this league
MHS831 replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
Consistency is VERY important. For example, a QB can have 1 bad game every 4 games and make the playoffs/win a division. But if they do not get a first round bye, that bad game is going to cost them a Lombardi---every time. Look at NE--they have a lesser athlete--the fourth QB taken in the draft--and they are winning. Why? He is consistent, accurate, and smart. -
Cam Newton should be done as a starting QB in this league
MHS831 replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
You use stats when he plays well and blame others when he does not. So attack others when they disagree with you--at least you are consistent. My shoe size is twice what his QB rating was yesterday. Damn the GM-OL-WRs-Coach-weather-etc. -

Nobody has to agree with you. -

MHS831 replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
A QB needs to be consistent and accurate. He needs to make good decisions and put the ball where it needs to be when it needs to be there. Cam has never been that guy. The season we went 15-1, the defense played really well and we had a silly turnover advantage over opponents. We never put together back-to-back winning seasons when he was healthy and young. We are not a good football team, and Cam needs a good football team to be good. -
stop hyping this asshole.
-
The are going to play man and bring 6 or 7 on every play. The TE, CMC, and I expect to see 88 step up today--he will have their worst DB covering him. Cam can't hold the ball---and we need to run it. Screen passes are nice in this situation as well.

Happy Thanksgiving! What Panthers related thanks are you giving?
MHS831 replied to Zod's topic in Carolina Panthers
I am thankful for the fact that we have a GM who is aggressive and trying to make deals. I am not going to judge him after 1 year--he knows we need an OL and MLB and maybe a FS. He will re-sign Cam, Reddick, and the rest of the offseason moves will tell us about him. -
This guy exposed Brady a few times--calling the first run pass option a college play then questioning the play calling late (in so many words).
-
foot injury? I bet we do not see him until after the Falcons game--so in about 3 weeks.
-
He had 7 solos and 10 combined vs. the Vikings. I was like, "There he is."

Good news for the wine and cheese crowd.....

Does that Label really have "Bling, Bling" on it? Should come with a rag to wipe the vomit off the bling. -
Hypothesis: Carter is a backup LB and his numbers prove it. Carter has 10 solo tackles over the last 5 games. He is playing Mike LB. To put that in perspective, Luke (and I am not saying he has to be Luke; this is to put his play into perspective only so you can see the difference) Luke averaged 6.4 solo tackles per game his Rookie season--Carter averages 2. Since returning from injury, Shaq Thompson has averaged 4.75 solo tackles per game. Jermaine has 54 combined tackles over 11 games this season (Luke had 164 combined tackles his rookie year), 29 over the last five games--about his average. Over 5 games then, rookie Luke would have had 32 solo tackles and 51 combined tackles. Your Mike needs to make tackles. I have added stats for Shaq Thompson's last 5 games (he was injured for a bit) to give greater insight: Solo tackles over 5 games: Carter 10, Thompson 23 (over his last five games), Rookie Luke 32 (average for 5 games) Combined tackles over last 5 games: Carter 29, Thompson 36, Rookie Luke 51 (average for 5 games) While Carter finds his way to assist tackles at a decent rate as indicated by his combined (assist + solo) stats, he is weak in the solo tackle area. Solo tackles often happen in space, and Jermaine is not making plays in space. For Carter to make tackles, he needs help. He is a gang tackler I guess you could say. I was talking to former Tar Heel, Miami Dolphin and Indy Colt Linebacker Dwight Hollier recently and he described tackling Barry Sanders in the open field. He went on to describe the art of tackling in the open field vs. in the fray on the line of scrimmage. He said that he just guessed with Sanders, and made the tackle because he guessed right. He said, "it is the test of who is the better athlete--mind and body--when you are tackling in the open field. I feared Sanders, so I guessed. That means I miss the tackle 50% of the time or even more. I got lucky." When I watch Carter, I see a person getting caught up in traffic, taking bad angles, and whiffing a lot in one-on-one situations. He is not terrible--for a backup he would be good. I have read people on the Huddle say that he is serviceable or doing OK. No, he really is not.

Yes. Yes it is. Hallelujah

I found this quote to be interesting since BC's athleticism was off the charts. Not sure who said that (Rhule?) but I question it.
-
Well, he was not vs. Chase Young, but I thought he played well. Maybe he had time to reflect after his first stint at LT---who knows? This is about the time of the year when the game should slow enough for a rookie to start getting it.
-
Slye will be able to say that in 9 stadiums this year.
-
Good news: Brady C did a good job. Thought he did, but was not that pumped considering he did not face Young-but an 81 is solid. If we can get a few more of those, we could have QB and LT settled before free agency/draft. Big If.
-
I saw him getting mauled--bull rushed into the QB many times. So if you don't see it, it could be that you didn't see it--not that the grading is screwed up.

How does this Cb situation play out going foward?
MHS831 replied to WOW!!'s topic in Carolina Panthers
I still say LT in round 1 IF Cam is re-signed, which means that he played well. While Morgan, Beason, and Luke were first rounders, we were talking about possible free agents. I dunno, but I am a believer in that Alpha MLB--maybe just old school. -

MHS831 replied to WOW!!'s topic in Carolina Panthers
They really do---so having 7 stud CBs should not be the way to go...I do not see Nixon, Roy, or Hoskins in that second DT role yet. We may try to re-sign Jones?
