8. Carolina Panthers

McShay's pick: Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU

Fournette is the best running back in a loaded class and the perfect fit for Carolina's power-rushing offense. The Panthers need to not rely on QB Cam Newton so much in the run game.

 

40. Carolina Panthers

McShay's pick: Curtis Samuel, WR, Ohio State

Wide receiver is a sneaky need for Carolina. Samuel makes plays from the slot and as a runner on jet sweeps/reverses.

64. Carolina Panthers (from Patriots)

McShay's pick: Obi Melifonwu, S, Connecticut

Melifonwu has an elite size/speed combination: 6-4, 224 pounds, 4.40 40, 44-inch vertical. The Panthers could use more of that playing against WRs like Mike Evans and Julio Jones in the NFC South.

98. Carolina Panthers*

McShay's pick: Daeshon Hall, DE, Texas A&M

Hall has the physical tools to work with (35½-inch arms and good first-step quickness); he just needs to learn how to set up blockers better.

 

Love It. But I think this would be a dream situation I dout the draft plays out this way but if it did I don't think many of us would complain. Discuss....

Not saying that Obi will last, but some of this movement is phantom movement, only within the minds of fans and media draftniks. Obi still has a certain amount of rawness at the end of the day. 

It wouldn't be surprising if some of these guys go right where they were predicted before this process all began. After all, the tape rules, not media driven hype with most execs. 

Don't get me wrong, some will slide, some will fall, but most will stay about the same.

Pretty much. We have no idea where Obi will land. Could be round 3 for all we know. Jeremy Cash was a projected round 2 and didn't get drafted. sheesh.

I like Kai Naucu from BYU , who has been under the rader so far but could be one of the steals of the draft in the mid round

6'- 2" 210 lbs with  4.4 fourty time 

- instincts 

-Ball Hawk & excellent  run supporter

-Turnover Machine

Obi will be picked at 40. I think the Panthers like him a lot. And i could even see a trade up from 40 to late 20s to get him.

I see it as 1) Take BPA at 8. 2) Get Obi, he's our only hope.

Obi learns from Mike Adams for a year, and then steps into the starting role.

3) address either RB or WR, whichever you didn't get at 8.

If you're a planner and know thy enemey one could get the gist of the draft board.

      Peeking at the roster in 2026

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I’m keeping an eye on what the Hawks do with Boye Mafe. There’s a few young talented players that needs to be retained and one of their defensive starters might not fit within the budget. My guess is probably Riq Woolen is voted off the island but Mafe could be potentially too. His stats aren’t eye popping, but in McDonald’s defense, his role is to leverage for the DL to clean up. Mafe’s QB pressure rate is top notch and in a different scheme, he could clean up.    Just something to watch this weekend when SEA is in town.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
