Charlotte native, CB Adonis Alexander, entering Supplemental Draft

Panthers should use a 4th

Would that be enough?  He had a 2019 1st Round Grade per the video and the Panthers would be grouped with the playoff teams in the lottery, meaning if the Cowboys or Bucs for example bid a 4th, they’d get him.

I don't think we ever do anything in the supplemental draft. Have we ever?

No, risk usually doesn’t equal reward since the player inevitably has at least some baggage.

But never has a 6’3 DB with big upside from Charlotte entered to my knowledge.

usually if there is off field concerns, you don't want the player coming back to the town where they may have began.  Same reason Honey badger didn't want to go home to New Orleans, didn't want to run with the boys he used to.

I don't know if that situation applies here, and I'd love to have him, but I'm 100% sure we'll roll with Bradberry and Jackson.

Academic ineligibility isn’t a great sign, but hardly a capital offense.  Too bad he didn’t go to UNC and take AFAM.  

Bottom line is a 6’3 DB, even as a project, in this division IS a risk worth taking.  The question is how high of a risk.

wasn't there something else off the field beyond academic ineligibility?

A pot charge in 2016.  Meh.  Maybe a 4th is appropriate, I dunno, but I do wonder if it’s enough given his upside and the other teams higher in the bid/lottery order.

    • I'll say 6. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition and will do more to help the defense than anyone. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole there. For all the hype surrounding Sanders and Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
    • 2010 was worse. Not much worse but worse. 
    • Lol since 2017 the Panthers are 47-85,    Also since 2017 the Giants are 40-91-1   Lol
