Where would you rank Shaq Thompson and Devin Funchess in this draft?

Let's say for fun, each are put into this year's draft. Yes you count what you know and what they did/didn't do on the field. Con is they are one year older (funch is still 21 tho).

I'd put Shaq about where he was drafted -25th(much better than last year)

Funch -early 3rd

Neither showed a whole lot this year. Shaq made a couple nice plays, wasn't on the field a whole lot.  Funch made a few nice grabs and more rookie mistakes. Both show promise but neither are instant impact players.  I'd say they're both still where I thought they were before the draft. 2nd and 3rd rounds respectively.  1st round is for players who make an early impact.

Production wise he was was the 6th best rookie WR this year. 6 WR's were drafted in the first round last year. 2 of those (Kevin White and Breshad Perriman) didn't play all year. Even if you assume that both Perriman and White are better than Funchess, that would only make him the 8th-best rookie WR. The 8th WR drafted last year was drafted in the 2nd round, pick #40. One pick before Funchess.

    • Well yeah. Last time vs NO if we had had good QB play and half ass pass pro it is a different game. And that is the story more often, in point of fact, than the two or three hero games everyone wants to use to define the player.  That box was so stacked against the run it was basically impossible to break through it, you had to go over and around. It is what we knew was gonna be employed by teams and we were unable to stop them from doing it.    I am real interested to see the first 3rd and 8 and see how NO defenses it in the back end. Because they can look at that Rams tape and learn, but will they have enough fear/respect that it can happen to them or will we need to prove it again before they do?   Most people don’t learn from others’ mistakes and  need to make their own. 
    • I like that Tillis is so down to earth  we will see where it goes ill say something controversial on a day that, along with next week, determines the panthers 2025  and 2026 fate  he referenced ‘money ball’, statistics and self scouting multiple times. it really makes me feel that Bryce will be back regardless of what happens over the next 4 games as that is the smart move for financial stability but by no means does that guarantee Bryce anything past that.  They will improve year over year regardless of position or who is affected       however, they will do the appropriate diligence and not cut off their nose to spite their face….it won’t be an emotional decision…unlike us Huddlers….for example, if Young’s happy ass shits the bed today, I’ll be less than pleased ..particularly having seen what they will do and having a bye week.  Brandon Staley is a good defensive coordinator and former HC.  His defense is aging but he can still develop a good game plan 
    • Something like 24 now. The first 6 minutes were fun, after that, oh man. It was cool tho, a near capacity, with both teams well supported.
