I know it’s not popular, but I want Kirk with the first pick. I just feel like he’s gna be a beast. I also really like EQ, I’ve watched a lot of his games and was really impressed with him (not in the first of course, maybe one of our thirds if he’s there)

The issue on the press coverage concerns me.  Will he be able to get separation against NFL caliber CBs? 

If he can't = Bust.

I agree, it’s a chance and it sucks bc we can’t afford to mess up that pick with the needs we have. Wr is a huge need but so is S, RB and DE imo. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Of course SS loves Anthony Miller they are cut from the same cloth.  Kirk is great but i think Miller can be had later, kinda reminds me of when Santana Moss was a first round pick and we stole Steve in the 3rd

The thought of having a guy like Smith with that Chip on his shoulder really intrigues me.

Exactly.  First round busts can set a team back many years.   That player you thought was going to be around a long time ends up out of the NFL in a couple years.  

Unfortunately the Combines is not going to show if he can get separation against top caliber DBs.   

I think Safety, OT, DE and C are probably higher on the list than RB and WR.

That's what I'm thinking...Miller looks more physical than Kirk but I wont complain if we got either one but I am partial to Miller...

No Ridley and he has Kirk over him that's just crazy. 

Did you read the article?  He said he was looking at mid round guys.

You'll notice a few of the top guys (Calvin Ridley and Courtland Sutton) aren't listed below. That's because we already kind of know what we're getting with them. The guys spotlighted below are lesser-known, but I think they all have impact potential.

      Panthers' content round up

      By Icege · Posted

      Still working on consuming all of these so I don't have summaries available, but I figured there might be another Huddler or three trying to kill time before tonight's final preseason game.   Panthers Blueprint: Training Camp The in-house produced Blueprint series has given behind-the-scenes look on the field and off. Start the day with Robert Hunt's family, be in the morning meetings, mic'd up players during practice (Jaycee, Rozeboom, Icky, and Bryce), roster evaluations by the staff, and plenty of camp highlights capping off with FanFest.   Processing Blue (Mike Kaye & Alex Zietlow Mike and Alex are back talking about a variety of topics including but not limited to: joint practice + preseason game vs. Houston, Trey Hendrickson trade rumors involving Carolina, training camp awards, draft pick draft, and various thoughts about the team.   Jordan & Jake 706: Opening Day Another in-house Panthers' production, the most recent episode of Jordan and Jake talk about how to properly balance intensity in practice, react to the starters being shutdown for the preseason finale, share their thoughts on the newest Panther QB, and more.   Raw Room - Ep 278 - Gas Pedal (ft. Mike Davis) Assistant special teams' coach Darren Bates' Raw Room podcast has former Panthers' RB Mike Davis on his weekly podcast. I'm about halfway through this one and it's been a lot of fun. The Raw Room guys (DB, his friend Alex Sweets, former Eagles/Chargers OT King Dunlap, and former Atlanta DB Jalen Collins) are hilarious and Mike fits right in. They talk about his football experience coming up, decommitting from Florida and how he decided on South Carolina, and more. Warning: If you're the type of person that is easily distracted by accents, despite XL being on the team, you might have issues with understanding the Memphis dialect. If you don't care about how somebody talks, just what they're talking about, tune in!

      Allen was borderline unplayable in College.  He's an absolute unicorn in terms of his career panning out the way it has.

      It's a step up in competition as well. The gap in athletic skill is narrowed from what was faced at the college level.
