Jonathan Allen - DE, Alabama

 

 

Panthers add a blue-collar defender to a defensive line that needs a menacing presence off the edge.

PICK

Joe Mixon - RB, Oklahoma

 

 

Imagine Aaron Rodgers playing with a David Johnson-like playmaker in the backfield. Mixon is an exceptional combo back with size, speed, power, and home-run ability.

Allen is the pick I would be the most annoyed by of all the possibilities floated so far. I'd even rather have McCaffrey at 8. Allen only makes sense if there's no chance of resigning short and they're alr day admitting butler was a wasted pick. Allen may very well be a very good  DT or 3-4 DE but he absolutely isn't a 4-3 DE. Too stiff, not enough burst.

I second this.

Allen would send me in to a drunken rage

I love how just the possibility of this makes you think the front office has made mistakes.

I think Allen is a great prospect, but in terms of our needs he'd be he guy that would be about the least exciting. Then again, if the guy turns into Aaron Donald we wouldn't care about that need thing.

As for Mixon, NFL Network had an interterestkng quote from an anonymous NFL RB a coach that made sense. He essentially said that if you're willing to draft Mixon in the 7th you might as well be willing to draft him in the 1st. You're going to get the same scrutiny and reaction to the pick either way.

That's actually very well stated.

I guarantee if Allen ran a 4.8 40 none of y'all would be complaining. Before the combine it was considered a Star-like longshot of Allen dropping to us. Now everyone acts like they would hate the pick. I would be thrilled if we got Allen as he has been arguably one of the top 3 players in college the last 2 years.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
