Love this time of year. 

 

Round 1: OT DJ Humphries Florida

One of the more nimble athletic T's in the draft. Not polished yet, but has a alot of upside. 

 

Round 2: WR Nelson Agholor University of Southern California

Would be a nice addition and make for a nice young nucleus of WR's. 

 

 

Round 3: S Anthony Harris Virginia

This guy is a ball hack. Led the NCAA two years ago in picks. 

 

 

Round 4: OT Lawrence Gibson Virgina Tech

Double dip.

That's nice and all but DJ is a 2-3 round prospect. Drafting him 25th overall would be reaching.

 

You even keep up with draft news and rumblings?

 

Lol at DJ being a 2-3 round prospect. He is widely regarded as one of the few true LT prospects in the draft. 

 

He is probably be gone by the time we pick in the 1st.

What makes him a 2-3 round prospect? Because you say he is? Every single guy paid to evaluate these kids has him going in the first round. He may have started as a 2-3 guy very early in the process, but he's shot up draft boards every since and had a very good combine performance. He isn't a finished and needs to be coached up, but the same can be said for every prospect there at 25. Humphries is on my list of 5 players I'd be ecstatic to select in the first.

Yeah, um, no.

DJ is a raw, unfinished prospect who has been injury-prone the last two years.

Rumblings are just that.

You know how many raw players get drafted in the first every year? Every college prospect is unfinished to one extent or another. He's more inconsistent than anything but his natural ability make him a first round talent. So, tell me, who is there at 25 that is a finished product, is polished, and is a first round prospect?

I could see Humphries if he falls to 25.  Lots of people calling that a natural fit since he's a hometown player.  Might not be there at 25 though.  One player I think a lot of people are overlooking in the 2nd is LB Eric Kendricks.  The Panthers shocked everyone by taking DE Kony Ealy in the 2nd round last year after despite having no need at the position at the time.  Now the move looks brilliant with Hardy out the door.  Thomas Davis won't be around too much longer and grabbing the promising Kendricks would be a solid move in the 2nd.

Cue the "game is not played in underwear" soundbite.

I've seen nothing that suddenly indicates Humphries as a first round selection outside his combine performance. Prior to his workouts, DJ was viewed as a second day prospect. Sorry but I'm not a prisoner of the moment.

Then you haven't watched him very closely. Every flaw in his game is coachable. He has a high motor, plays nasty and through the whistle, possesses elite athleticism for the position, and flashed some dominance in his play. Like I said, consistency is his biggest knock and that comes from inconsistent technique.

Let's hear your selection at 25 that's free of any holes in his game.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By Basbear · Posted

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Basbear · Posted

      THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
