Hubbard was like a 6.95.  He has the pedigree and the size.  Not really the production, but he was playing on a very stacked DL. This is the best I can do with inside info on the guy:  My brother-in-law has season tickets (He is a chiropractor in Columbus and an alumni).  He said that Hubbard is always around the ball--high motor. High character--but he says second rounder at best  I think he would be great in our scheme and like him in the first round since he ran that cone drill. The tools are there--teach him a move or two and coach him up.

From a value standpoint is is probably 30-40 so taking him at 24 would be a slight reach.  But, 43 DE's are pretty much rare in this draft.

Still love for Cleveland to trade back into the bottom of the first and us move to the top of the second

I don't like the idea of a tweener like this.  He's a decent college player, and had a great combine . . . but I don't think he projects to our scheme very well.

Too light for a DE, too slow for an OLB.  We need contributors, not more projects.

Chubb is the top of the board for DE's that are 43 guys, after that, it is about a rounds worth of value down to Hubbard who can run a 43.  After that, it is just pulling one from a hat and hoping.  Might as well pin our hopes on Hall at that point since Ziggy got tagged.

Back to Peppers I suppose

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Jeremy Fowler draft intel on the Panthers: “Carolina was high on Proctor. If he somehow slipped to 19, he was a viable option.” “Caleb Lomu was on the Panthers short list too.” “Panthers weren’t totally comfortable with Stowers there at 49.”   https://x.com/panthersontap/status/2049827264972353727?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
