Under the Radar 1st Round Panther Pick

So, all this talk has been about Edge and LT because we're having a lot of private visits with several top guys at those positions. 

My question is do you all have a guy you would be happy to get for our 1st round pick that we haven't discussed a lot about?

My UTR pick would be Jerry Tillery. He wont make it to our 2nd round pick. He was extremely productive in college and is very explosive. I remember he wowed me at the combine as well. 

He would be a great 3-4 DE or 4-3 DT to pair with KK on obvious passing downs. 

So,  whose your UTR pick?

Savage has been talked about a lot on day 2 but not at all in the first, and I think he’s in play there and I’d be fine with it (though not my top choice and I dream to get him in the 2nd).

 

Hockenson hasn’t ever really been mentioned with the Panthers but if he’s there, he’s the pick. And while it’s unlikely he’s there, I don’t think it’s impossible.

A name you hear very little of is Clelin Ferrell. Given free agency / pre-draft presser I find it hard to believe that DL/Edge is not the focus with the 1st round selection. Offensive line and Safety also seem like the next area of focus as well.

Tillery is grossly underrated.

My UTR pick is still Garrett Bradbury. Not saying we will pick him since signing a FA starting caliber center, but he could be chosen to play guard with an eye to the future. Smart kid, multi-spot player on the line, something they talked about during the presser.

D-line should be our top priority, followed by Hockenson (if he is there) followed up by O-line -- left tackle, G/C in that order of preference.

Honestly, though, it could be of any position as we could go with BPA and make due elsewhere.

I would have said Ed Oliver til his pro day.

I'm going with the top LBs, White and Bush. I think there's a .05% chance White is there. Bush is a carbon copy and should be there. Plus he could easily be the BPA too. 

Yeah Oliver just blew up since the draft process started. I was always intrigued about what would happen if DEs went early and we ended up getting someone we wouldn't expect. So what could White or Bush bring to the table for the Panthers? What could they do better than Shaq Thompson?

First, your Tillery pick is a great example of an under radar panther pick.

  Honestly wish Oliver never had his pro-day, cause I do not see him falling out of the top ten(minus a gas mask vid). Honestly, my reason for picking White/Bush is Herniay and Ron love LBs and love picking them(just look at the history). There could easily be a run on DL/Edge, QB and OT leaving White overlooked. Another reason is after the top 2, the LB group is very very light on talent. Not going speak about Luke and the unspeakable cause he looks over that, but Shaq is on a one year deal. With all the talk about hybrid 3-4/4-3 people have forgotten LBs. Inside LB in a 3-4 aliment is vastly different than 4-3. Lastly, both are above average in the pass coverage along with being speed demons, so both are 3 down players.  

I personally wouldn't be shocked or pissed about white or bush being the pick

Tillery and Winovich are my two undervalued players that I'm a big fan of. 

Depending on who is there at 16 I would be opposed to trading down and taking Tillery and then using the capital to move up and grab Winovich in the second. 

I think some teams are going to get two good players in the late first, early second range.

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
