It's alittle discouraging to hear that Ealy didn't get enough push while at Tackle. That said, it's far too early to be worrying about anything at this point.

 

Sounds like this could be another Evertt Brown type guy that might not be here in a few seasons. I hope he gets better. But when he got drafted some people said he was undersized for his position at DE. Brown was the same way. I just got this feeling this could end up the same way with Ealy in next few years. I know it is way to early to judge. But it doesn't sound good in the long run.

Besides Benjamin who gives off an obvious boner to everyone, the player I'm really excited to see on gameday is Trai Turner. The dude looks the part of an athletic hog mollie the will give us a solid interior once Silatolu comes back. I'm honestly starting to wonder if we're trying to mimic New Orleans with two solid guards and meh tackles. 

 

Who I'm loving right now is that 6'6 TE I'm hearing about. Sounds like that guy could be a sure thing for this Panthers offense if he can make it to camp. If he could make the final cut at the end of the preseason. Put him Olsen and Dickson out there in 3 TE set. It would be big. I know 3 TE set is rare. But with a 5 WR set. Have 3 TEs and 2 WRs. It could just work. Hope this guy makes it to camp.

They were trying Ealy out at tackle. He's already more than big enough for the DE position.

I'm so confused right now.  After one day of rookie camp where Zod said he looked good at DE, you're ready to write him off as a bust like Brown?  He doesn't have the size at DE?  The dude is 6'4", 275.

Foucault needs work probably, but if they are singing him, that must mean the see something in him. Hope that he becomes something for us. His size desirable. Hopefully the coaching staff can mold him.  

 

Especially if he is the only workout guy they sign.   

 

We have some of the best Offensive Line Coaches in the NFL.   I am sure he'll be in good hands.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.
