"won't be there" realistically

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.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
