will be starting next week. I really thought this guy showed some potential last night once he got into the flow of the game.

Of course, I still expect the Panthers to go after another DT, but I'm at least encouraged that we have a better option than Nick Hayden.

Yeah, I posted that up the second it was revealed that Kemo was done for the year. I told everyone not to sleep on him, I'm a die hard LSU fan and I watched the guy play for 4 years, he definitely has game, and he definitely has potential. I guess since my name isn't Zod no one paid attention :D I've enclosed what I originally said just to prove I'm not full of poppycock.

#1. Great post, you really did your research.

#2 Out of all those options I would prefer Walker coming back, he isn't horrible and knows the system and may give us a discount.

Being a die hard LSU fan, I urge Panther fans not to sleep on Marlon Favorite, I watched him for the last few years in every LSU game and the guy can stop the run, now whether or not his talent will translate to the NFL as quickly as we would need it to remains to be seen...he does have talent, but at times with LSU he seemed to lack motivation, now he has all the motivation he needs to prove himself and earn a spot. He seems like the kind of player that could either be cut by the end of the preseason, or really show up and be a nice surprise for us. I hope it's the latter...

Although, surprisingly enough...I feel ok if we don't sign anyone, I think Meeks philosophy and his "swarm the ball" style are really gonna cater to our players and I'm sure out of all the defensive linemen we have, at least ONE of them has to possess the talent to step up and make some plays on a consistent basis.

I'd also like to declare that after last night, I'm no longer of the opinion that we'll be ok with what we have.

Favorite and Irvin looked pretty decent last night. I could honestly say I would only keep them and cut the rest of the DT's. I would keep Lewis but my patience is waring thin on him, he's ok but without a Kemo caliber DT next to him he's just going to get taken out of plays. If I were Hurney I do everything possible to get us a good DT with some potential. Get Corey Williams and pick up one of the Titans or Giants cuts and I think we could have something.

After seeing the Giants D-line, I would not mind taking their sloppy seconds at all.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By strato · Posted

      Yep. I was hoping for and calling for a day three guy. But I didn’t research the position to say if we should or should‘t have jumped at a particular guy at a particular spot.    And everything I read said it was a poor draft for RBs depth wise. I guess when Seattle takes a backup RB in the 1st, that kind of backs that up.    I definitely think we should keep 4 running backs and if King can play well enough then keep him too.    I believe I heard Canales say we are a running team (talking about drafting a WR he will be needing to block as well as catch). Well if we are gonna be a running team by identity we don’t need to stock the WR room to overflowing. If one room has to sacrifice, it should not be the RB room given our circumstances.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.
