Final Panthers Mock Draft

And if he ends up being another Kris Jenkins with a motor they will be eating a bunch of crow this time next year.. We used a second on Jenkins. Anyone think that was a bad move?

 

And if we draft Denzel Perryman and he turns into Ray Lewis, we will be eating crow about this time next year.

 

Guess it would be OK to draft a middle linebacker in the first round, right?

 

I don't even have anything against taking a DT (well, I do, but I wouldn't be ticked or anything), but it is easy to see what the problem with the move would be. It isn't like we don't already have a great run stuffer on the roster.

Lol at Perriman being available in the 2nd

Perriman reminds me of what happened with Hayward-Bey. A good receiver in college who posted insane numbers and shot up boards. He was their 3rd receiver at UCF...at some point being the man is a trait you want your #1 to have. Probably more important than straight line speed.

I like your picks. I have settled on Peat as my player of choice. I won't be disappointed on anyone we choose.

Though you would prefer to have your first found pick on the field. There would be no hurry with Oher, Martin and Remmers ahead of him. I am not going to assume that because he is our first pick that he is automatically better than these three. His talent level might be higher but needs refinement from our O-line staff.

I hope we get the drafttek.com mock:

1.SS-Landon Collins

2.WR-Devin Smith

3.OT-Cedric Ogbuehi

4.RB-Mike Davis

Id pooh my pants for that first 4

The huddle mock would be a close second. I really want Devin Smith and Id rather get Peat over Landon Collins but they are about equally good-flawed imo. OT is the larger need however so Peat is who Id lean on.

I want our line to be like Minnesota when they had the Williams brothers. You absolutely couldn't run inside. It made most teams one dimensional. Right now we don't have 2 run stuffers up the middle. With Star and Goldman we would have the twin towers inside.

You do realize Kevin Williams was more known for his pass rushing abilities than his run stuffing abilities (like Kawann Short)... right?

 

It was hard to run inside because Pat Williams was a beast and Kevin Williams was an All-Pro talent.  Selecting Goldman might improve our run defense, but you aren't going to see two nosetackles on the field together all that often.

Perriman reminds me of what happened with Hayward-Bey. A good receiver in college who posted insane numbers and shot up boards. He was their 3rd receiver at UCF...at some point being the man is a trait you want your #1 to have. Probably more important than straight line speed.

 

Perriman went from being talked about as a late first or early second at latest BEFORE the combine, which he didn't post any numbers in, to mid first or late first at latest after running at his pro-day.  That's nowhere near the the shooting up the board that happened with DHB.  And the truth of the matter is, the biggest surprise about DHB's rise was that he went before Crabtree who was the consensus #1 and Crabtree turned out to not be any good either.  That was a bad year for WRs, the only early one of note was Maclin and I don't think he was ever a contender for the top WR spot.  So it wasn't that big of a mistake taking him before Crabtree.  That year was just a crapshoot for WRs.  Nevertheless, I pretty much always disagree with the late surges, and I think Perriman is the same prospect as when I watched breakdowns before the combine.  Late first.  Should be going to a playoff team.

 

edit:  And Perriman doesn't just have straight line speed, if you read the analysis or watch the breakdown videos you'll see he's got good change of direction and smooth moves for a guy his size.  He's not twitchy, but he's not lumbering after turning either.  Some guys get up to speed in a straight line fast but don't have the agility to change direction and keep going fast.  That's not Perriman.  He slows down a little more than a guy like Smitty or Brandin Cooks or OBJ would, but for his size his agility is very acceptable.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
