Easily the no2 behind Amari if you're talking pure talent; not combine performance. Plus, his ceiling is way higher than both Cooper and White imo.

Take the of field issues away and he'd be looked at differently by the media.

 

I don't think I would put him #1 even without all the issues. Kevin White was the best receiver before and after the combine.

"take the off field issues away"  ?

 

Like saying, "take the fact that he has only one leg away"

 

Your passion for the game can help you and your disrespect for yourself and the game can hurt you.  It is all part of the package as a draft hopeful

White was not the best WR before the combine. He's the best WR after the combine.

DGB is as good as Mike Evans as a prospect. As natural as you can get in catching the ball.

 

Yeah, he was. Or at least I had him ranked there, I think he might be the best player in the entire draft. DGB has other issues besides off the field ones and he is not as clean of a player on the field as Parker, White, or Cooper.

Interesting rankings.  Quite different than mine, if I were to put in the effort.  My biggest disagreement is you don't even have my favorite valued RB (meaning not overdrafting like Gordon and Gurly) in Ameer Abdullah.  I think he's going to be an absolute stud.  The last guy with change of direction and feet like his to come out of the draft was Reggie Bush and I think Abdullah will be better.  Seems smarter with better vision.  Not as straightline fast as Bush, but just as quick and agile.

He's the number 4 receiver in this draft counting his off the field stuff. Not bring that into consideration he's top one or two. He's still going to go in the first round probably before strong or Dorset.

 

I highly doubt he goes in the first, like, it would shock me.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
