Panthers interested in Landon Collins

Another overrated Bama safety. God I pray Landon is off the board

Ha Ha Clinton Dix was very good for the Pack last year. And Collins was better in the SEC than Dix. Lester has done decent work for us as an UDFA as well.

I'm OK with Bama safeties. But Bama corners? RUN AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

mehhhhhhhhh

The panthers are not too high on the D prospects this year. Well besides a couple corners. I really don't see a D prospect we'd be picking at 25.

If a hog mollie like Malcolm Brown or a pass rusher like Bud Dupree dropped, DG would be on those guys like stink on poo.

Well those would be pretty decent drops. I mean they absolutely love Fowler. I'm talking not top 15 guys but those that will be around in the 20's...there really isnt a D player worth a #1

The majority of games we lost was cause we got torched by the pass. That include the playoff game

That may be true but that doesn't mean our run defense was any good. The defense as a whole took a step back. We saw an improvement at the end of the season but overall it was a step back.

Collins is a VERY different type of safety than Dix.....Dix is much better in coverage.

 

Collins reminds me A LOT of Mark Barron.  And Barron has been a big disapointment.

Going by statistics we shouldn't even draft defense with the first pick

i do not understand why some of y'all believe he is a liability in coverage. he is not. 

 

another Bama prospect that has been playing good ball lately was Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, for the bengals. came on towards the end of the last season.

 

Pretty much comes from the Ole Miss game, which raised lots of question marks on his coverage ability. Looked suspect at time in the Iron Bowl too. 

 

Personally, I like him as a SS only who could cover in certain spots but you pretty much want him to be an aggressive in the box kinda guy, which is perfectly fine IMO, with complimentary FS behind him.

Do you have inside info or something? If not, what are you basing this on?

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
