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.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
