The TE no one is talking about who ran 4.43

Personally, I think he would better for our offense than OJ Howard, Considering his speed.

Evan Engram, TE, Ole Miss 
Height: 6-3. Weight: 235. Arm: 32.33. Hand: 10. 
40 Time: 4.42. 
Projected Round (2017): 2-3. 

 3/18/17: Last season, Engram illustrated that he is a dynamic receiving tight end for the NFL in the mold of Jordan Reed. Engram had excellent games against Florida State and Alabama. On the year, he totaled 65 receptions for 926 yards and eight scores. 

Engram is a fast receiver who is a good route-runner. He isn't a big blocker for the NFL though, but he fights hard as a blocker and is able to contribute some. Engram had an impressive Senior Bowl to help his draft stock. He stands a good shot of being drafted on Day 2. Engram helped himself with a tremendous combine where he had a much faster than expected 40 and was superb in the field drills.

If we don't draft OJ in the 1st by whatever scenario plays out... I wouldn't be mad at all with Engram in the 3rd.  Ron presser today, RR said he was happy with the TE depth so I doubt we use a high pick on a TE.

But yes Engram would be a nice addition.

He's a bigger WR. I like him, but he will likely go pretty early. My issue is that for a TE2, I think we do need someone who can block. Is Engram really any better than Zay Jones out of the slot? With Olsen, Engram is basically a slot WR. He can't block like Howard or Leggett.

I concur with this.  I think Engram is a great receiving TE. But for a TE2 that we need we need a bigger better blocking TE like a George Kittle from Iowa who is good at blocking and good at receiving. 

I would much rather have WR Zay Jones, Isiah Ford, or Ju-Ju in the 2-4th rounds looking for another receiving threat.

An H-Back is needed with the departure of Tolbert. It would definitely give some flexibility in the hurry up if he can move up and play on the line.

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
