My One and Only Mock

I normally do 2 to 3 mock drafts each year, however this year my work schedule has inhibited my free time so one will have to do. For what it is worth, I predicted the selections of Luke and Star in round 1 in back to back years and selected Brandin Cooks the following year (had he not been traded up for by the Saints, he would be a Panther). So without further ado.

 

Round 1: This year was more difficult to select for obvious reasons. Taking into consideration that 29 players will be selected before the Panthers are on the clock, they are at the mercy of some teams panicking and reaching for a quarterback, or reaching for the workout warrior so that a top guy can fall. With that being said, I think that Gettleman wants a pass-rusher badly in round 1. And he will find it in Emmanuel Ogbah. This guy just screams Panther. He is tenacious, athletic, passionate, and a high character guy. He is only starting to translate his athleticism to the football field and Coach Washington will help to unlock the vast potential.

Round 2: Many analysts and fans will be clamoring for a tackle here. But the tackles with any starting potential in the next 3 seasons will likely be gone at this point while other guys at other positions slip down. And Gettleman won't even have to trade up this time, he can stay put and take a guy he feels very good about in Tyler Boyd. This, ladies and gentleman, could be our new big play, deep threat, returner, and gadget guy. Quite simply, he is tough as nails and a playmaker.

Round 3: This one will seem to be obvious, and it is, but Gettleman feels stronger about this guy than other teams and doesn't feel as though he is reaching here in the 3rd round for him. He reminds me a bit of Richard Sherman when he was coming out of Stanford. Harlan Miller.

Round 4: Cam gets another toy here. Rivera and Shula finally find their Darren Sproles they have been searching for in Kenyan Drake.

Round 5: A guy that might be able to play 4 positions on the offensive line and give us greater depth. Willie Beavers.

Round 7: Gettleman double dips and finds another big corner with good ball skills in Daryl Worley

      Dak Prescott

      By Saca312 · Posted

      Adding on to that - I know I read from some reporter that Dak Prescott's mentality is extremely fragile. Get in his head, and he loses focus and confidence. Per that reporter,  anytime a big game comes up, he starts to have the jitters and hasn't seem to overcome that slump. Dak would be an upgrade over Bryce as things currently stand. But Dak has not proven he can play in games that matters without choking. Bryce hasn't had the chance to show anything in the NFL, so nothing much to say there. But based on his history, he's done well in college in the national championship. Theoretically he should be more confident in big games if he gets to that point. For that alone, I'd rather keep rolling the dice on Bryce or set our sights higher. I wouldn't touch Dak with a 10 ft pole given his choking habits.

      The Untold Story of Xavier Leggette

      By shaq · Posted

      Same here brother, love Xavier I think he’s gonna become a quick fan favorite of the team. He already has gone viral for his country accent, we have no face of the franchise currently outside of maybe Derrick Brown in terms of media attention. I would not be surprised if in the next 4 years Xavier becomes that media darling we used to have in the 2010s with Luke, Cam, Josh Norman, CMC, etc.

      I haven't been high on any of the WRs we drafted in the past.   This kid though is someone I actually wanted. I have a feeling we finally hit big with this kid. I'm expecting him to be a DJ Moore caliber WR.
