Brockel Igo my bad..

It's not a good comparison. This guy has great hands. Brockel has stone hands. Big difference.

Also, the new regime looks at production and play, not combine measureables. That's why they had the best draft in a decade last season.

This kid is a good value in the late third round.

What I see in O'Leary is Jeff King with better hands. I just don't think the hands are gonna matter much because he's just too slow to get open in the NFL. Virtually every LB in the NFL is faster than this guy.

Better run blocker than Jeff king ever was. We need run blocking desperately.

He sucks Igo it's a bad TE draft and he's not even the best of that crap.. it's a horrible pick and a slap to Cam's face to call Oleary a offensive weapon in this league. .

Agreed with going receiver in the third if the draft shaped up that way in the first two rounds. Need speed on the outside in the worst way. If we want to replace Tolbert in his "fullback" role I'd rather we draft a prototypical fullback in the 6th or 7th. We need a mauling blocking back that can pick up blitzes if we are really trying to be a ground and pound offense (even though I'd rather we push more towards a passing offense).

Both Landon Collins and Jake Fisher would need to fall a ways for the Panthers to get them at those picks.

 

All the good DL, OT, and QBs are gone in the first 20 picks. The top 2 safeties and LBs are typically gone as well. When you are sitting at the bottom of the first round the BPAs the fall are typically RB and WR.

 

2014 BPAs that fell to the late 1st were WR and TE. Kelvin Benjamin, Marqise Lee, Jordan Matthews, Allen Robinson, Jace Amaro, and ASJ.

2013 It was WR and RB. DeAndre Hopkins, Cordarelle Patterson, Robert Woods, Giovanni Bernard, Le'Veon Bell, and Eddie Lacy.

2012 It was WR, LB, RB and TE. Doug Martin, Stephen Hill, Alshon Jeffrey, LaMichael James, Reuben Randle, Bobby Wagner, Coby Fleener and Lavonte David.

2011 It was WR, RB and TE. Mark Ingram, Randall Cobb, Torrey Smith, and Kyle Rudolph.

2010 It was WR, TE, and LB. Demaryius Thomas, Dez Bryant, Rob Gronkowski, Golden Tate, Sean Lee, Navorro Bowman and Brandon Spikes.

 

Past 5 seasons of players who dropped to the end of the first round and into the second round. They were projected higher by "experts".

 

This season I am expecting that the BPAs dropping to the late 1st round and 2nd round to be Melvin Gordon, Todd Gurley, Davante Parker, Devin Funchess, Jaelen Strong, Dorial Green-Beckham, and Devin Smith.

I have no clue why Igo is all hype about a TE/H-BACK who runs a 4.93 40'.. He can be covered by Dlinemen. .

That is horrible value drafting a blocking back in the 3rd round..

half of last season that is what Olsen was used as.

drop Tolbert, who has suspect hands and durability issues and pick up a hybrid TE that eats nails and spits out bullets for breakfast.

O'leary is a gamer on a National Championship team with a great background and no record of injuries. Line Tolbert up against O'Leary and I put the house on the Irish.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
