I know it's early, but man, we are in no mans land at 7.

Go Jets

Not really.  Read about the 49ers/Bears game if you don't think they're taking QBs.  The Browns about have to take one as well.  7 isn't 5 but one of the studs at a position of need will be there.  Obviously would love to have the pick of the litter at 5 and that would about require losing out.  We have the cushion to win one and still pick 7.

Agree to disagree on Barnett.  If you believe Walter Football and multiple other mocks this week he won't even be available at 7.  IMO no man's land is 10-20, salt in the wound to this nightmare season.  Hoping for 5 but would still be very happy with a win over the Falcons and 7.

Garrett will be gone

Barnett is not worth 7 and neither is Cam Robinson.  Don't want to take another CB.

Possibly the S from Michigan would work

Ability needs to match the pick

Peppers is not a great Safety. Jamal Adams from LSU however is a baller. I really like Barnett. Barnett, Adams, and Cook are on my wish list if our position holds.

about every single mock draft has us picking another CB too. That is the last thing any panther fan wants lol after a draft with 3 fuging CBs in it. I hope we don't waste any picks on CBs, Bradberry is good and Worley could be solid given time and any sembelance of a pass rush . The only defensive picks I want to see out of this draft are at Saftey and Defensive End. Get a great pass rushing DE and a promising Saftey and the defense will be totally different. Spend all the other picks  on offense to help your franchise QB out for a fuging change.

This OT class sucks. Do I like Cam Rob? Yes, but not enough to take him top 10. If we could somehow get lucky and trade down into the 11-15, then yes take him there. 

Some have said that Barnett is the best pass rusher in this draft. It's hard to say. As of right now with the 7th pick or even top 10, I'm not sure I would feel confident enough to take him. DE is a huge need for us however. I don't see Barnett being as good of a prospect as Vic Beasley. And, he went 8th overall, 2nd pass rusher in a pretty damn good draft. 

If we stay in the top 10, (I'm taking Fournette out of this bc I believe he'll go top5) I think it'll be between a safety like Jamal Adams or the best available corner. If all the projected guys do enter this draft, it'll be a cornerback heavy draft. A bunch of talents there. There are about 5 Cbs right now that I would take easily in the top 10 with full confidence. I know we have Bradberry and Worley, but that nickel position is important too. I like Johnson but he could be upgraded. Denver and NYG secondaries ain't too bad.

I don't mind a corner. Id like to upgrade the nickel. You gotta have about 4 corners in today's NFL. Those guys projected to come out are pretty solid corners.

The Jets are clearly our biggest threat as far as landing Leonard Fournette, who is my favorite prospect considering the lack of top quality OT's available this year. If he's gone, I like Jamal Adams, the safety from LSU.

Peppers from Michigan is a little too much of a tweener for me, TBH, but we took Shaq in the 1st round, so you never know.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.

      If the Canes don't bring back Tyson Jost or Jack Roslovic, is Tanner Jeannot an option? https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2025/06/senators-expected-to-show-interest-in-tanner-jeannot.html
