Move from 24 to 15

Recommended Posts

The NFL Network did their Live Mock Draft. The particiapants were  Daniel Jeremiah (@movethesticks), Charles Davis (@cfd22). Dave Dameshek, Christa Frelund, Colleen Wolfe, Bucky Brooks (former Panthers scout), Steve Mariucci, and Maurice Jones Drew. 

In their mock, Minkah Fitzpatrick lasted until Pick 15. What would it cost the Panthers to move up from 24 to 15 get Fitzpatrick if this scenario played out on Draft night?

Here's the mock in case you missed it.

#1 Browns USC QB Sam Darnold (Jeremiah)
#2 NYG Penn State RB Saquon Barkley (Maricucci)
#3 NYJ Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield (Davis)
#4 Browns NC State DE Bradley Chubb (Jeremiah)
#5 DEN UCLA QB Josh Rosen (Jones Drew)
#6 Colts Georgia LB Roquan Smith (Brooks)
#7 TB Florida State S Derwin James (Wolfe) - not a fan of TB getting James, ugh.
#8 CHI Notre Dame G Quenton Nelson (Frelund)
#9 49ers Virginia Tech LB Tremaine Edmunds (Mariucci)
#10 OAK Ohio State CB Denzel Ward (MJD)
#11 MAI Washington DT Vita Vea (Dameshek)
#12 Bills Wyoming QB Josh Allen (Brooks)
#13 Redskins UTEP G Will Hernandez (Frelund)
#14 GB UTSA DE Marcus Davenport.(Brooks)
#15 AZ Alabama S Minkah Fitzpatrick (Wolfe)

Maybe I’m naive, but I think a 3rd can do it. If we trade up, i think it’ll be for DJ Moore. We’d have to jump Dallas to get him. 

 

That’s the only scenario I can see us trading up

That would be a steal according to the draft value chart. Teams don't like giving away steals. #24 plus one of our 3rds gets us up in the #18 range.

Yea 18 is the highest I can see us moving up. Perfect territory to go After Ridley or Moore. Cowboys picking at 19 and Patriots at 22. Both teams need a receiver and both are the only 2 teams reported to have brought them both in on a visit in addition to us.

 If we were to trade up those seem like the most likely targets and 1 of the 3rd's seems like the max compensation we'd consider parting with. I'd make the move for Ridley but I'd hold off on doing it for Moore.

Yep. That would make sense and a move like that wouldn't shock me.

    • The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.
    • These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.
    • Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
