Your Top 5 (realistically) at 25: Pre Free-Agency


Recommended Posts

It's simple. Post 5 players you would be okay with the Panthers drafting with the 25th overall selection. You can order the list by preference if you would like, but it isn't necessary. Lets try to keep it as realistic as possible. Amari Cooper won't be on the board.

 

If I'm Dave G:

 

Jaelen Strong

DJ Humphries

Jake Fisher

Ereck Flowers

La'El Collins

 

Others in contention: Bud Dupree, Landon Collins, Jalen Collins, Kevin Johnson, Breshad Perriman (hurt during combine, will test like a freak during pro day), Owamagbe Ohdighizuwa

Your top 5 is my top 5 as well.  Strong is my preference and no particular order for the rest.  

 

Kevin Johnson, Jalen Collins, and Odi aren't far behind however.  Same with Phillips at DT as crazy as that sounds.

For me as of now, if we go WR, it's Strong at 25 (if he's still there). After that, I think we'd be reaching and I'm fine going WR after the 1st.

 

OT, the same guys you listed. Personally I don't think Fisher would be much of a reach at 25, but if any of the top guys are there, we snag them. In the event Strong or one of the OT prospects like Fisher/Peat/Collins/Flowers/Humphries isn't there, go defense with a DE, Shaq, or secondary help.

Not being too much of a reach is still being a reach. We don't reach around these parts.

 

I don't think anyone would disagree with that.  It's just very subjective right now which guys constitute a reach or not. 

 

Just gotta try and predict what DG's board may look and who is for sure gone by 25 to get the best idea.

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
