"won't be there" realistically


AU-panther

Recommended Posts

So we all joke about the "won't be there" comments this time of year but I wanted to get an idea of who people think we can really cross of the list.  With all the talk of Sweat maybe moving in the top 10 that means somebody else is moving down.

We pick 16th.  I am pretty confident at least 2 QBs go before us, hoping 3 do, teams can get stupid with QBs.  I think we all agree Nick Bosa and Quinnen Williams will go top 5.  That leaves at most 11 more players to be off the board.

Who are you convinced will be one or more of those 11, and therefore "wont be there" for us.

My early list:  Josh Allen, Rashan Gary, and Devin White

If I'm really concerned about picking a DE the question becomes, will Sweat and Ferrell be one of the other 8 that goes before 16?

So to all of you "draft experts"  who would you bet money on not being there?

Respectfully cannot understand this reasoning.  I don't want my team to lose any game, period.  Especially against that team.  I don't care if it moved us back to 33rd.

I would rather my teams lose one game in a meaningless season than to have less talent in the future and subsequently lose more games in the future.

Wouldnt be in this spot, if we would have lost wk 17, as we should have.

Kyle Allen has worked his whole life for an opportunity and he finally got his one chance to go out and prove himself. Same goes for other unproven Panthers (CAP, Gaulden, Haynes). Do you really expect them to lose on purpose?

If this is the thought process AFTER the game, I get it.  Or at least I can not react/post about it. 

Competitors don't play to lose.  Ever.

I am in the middle.  I see both sides, and get it.  I fully expect every Panther player on the field to go out there and try their hardest to win the game.

I just wish our 3rd string wasn't better than the Saints 3rd string for that one game.  I wish the Saints were still playing for home field, so they couldn't slack off.

Who won’t be there:

Bosa, Williams, Allen, White, Oliver, Gary, Simmons, Jonah or J Taylor  whoever is top tackle, Ferrell, Burns or Polite(highest rated),

Thats 10.  I think Haskins and Lock will also go.  

There are 3 Top 15 cbs. But I don’t see them all going before 16.  

Bottom line.  It may be close for sweat. But just remember, he rose recently Bc of senior bowl.  I am hoping for the combine to move some others up.  Hoping for a John Ross to come out of the combine due to speed or other intangibles.

    • I will admit this- Kon doesn't look or play like a 19 year. Much bigger and filled out than I thought he was. Plus initiate the offense during his best quarter and he did make some good passes for FG attempts.   I watch NBA years ago and was a top 3 fantasy yahoo managers for years. Many times a player had like 30 points, it mostly came from one or 2 hot quarters. The others were 5 and 0, so his 16 point game is normal in that regard.    If Ball, bridges, and Miller allow Kon to be apart of the team, just depends on if he clicks of not. Another generic white guy comp popped in my head........he of hornet lore-Gordon Hayward 15 points 5 rebs 3.5 asst Maybe??
    • Here are a couple of links.   Wish I had seen this before this past weekend as appears they had a big fundraiser event last week. https://sites.google.com/vollminadvisory.com/thewilmingtonarenaproject/home https://www.wwaytv3.com/wilmington-native-leads-push-for-new-multi-use-venue-to-attract-professional-hockey-team/ https://portcitydaily.com/latest-news/2025/07/13/wilmington-nonprofit-fundraising-for-10k-seat-arena-to-lure-pro-ice-hockey-team/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61577145613291    
    • Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄
