Phillip Dorsett to meet with Panthers


LUUUUUKE

Recommended Posts

I think this has been confirmed before but regardless, he's an interesting prospect.  I don't trust a lot of the perceived speedy WR prospects but I'd put Dorsett ahead of Lockett and Bell.  He really has that burst that can clear a defense beyond just the college level.

How are his hands they ask? His hands are teh amazing! He's as clutch as they come when you need a 3rd down conversion. He played against CBs projected to go in the 1st and smoked them.

I would absolutely love it if we are fortunate enough for him to be there in the second, but I don't think he will be. The mocks have him and Duke Johnson on the board much further down than I think both will be taken. There has been 0 buzz surrounding either if them, but mark my words, they will both be highly successful at the next level.

You've been hearing that from me for weeks though.

J jones posted a vine to his Twitter of Dorsett running an in and out route in the end zone, going after the ball with his hands, and seemingly getting two feet down. It looked pretty but then again "game isn't played in ya undawear"

Seems like a dude who might go in the first as the hype picks up?

 

 

 

 

Dorsett enters the draft as a senior, which the system penalizes and also "lacks a year of the extremely good production that is typical of the senior wide receivers who go on to succeed in the NFL," wrote FO's Nathan Forster. Dorsett was likened historically by Playmaker to Mark Clayton and James Jones. The Hurricane ranks No. 47 on Daniel Jeremiah's Top 50, and ESPN's Mel Kiper wrote recently that Dorsett is "clearly in the Round 1 mix."

    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.    
    • Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
