Vincent Richardson: Panthers selecting DT Tillery or Wilkins at #16

The title is misleading. He's just saying if we're really committed to transitioning to a 3-4 (which doesn't even sound like is necessarily the case), then we might stand to pick Wilkins or Tillery since they'll likely be the 3-techs available at our pick, and right now we're missing another quality 3-tech starter outside of Short.

I could see Wilkins but Tillery seems to be a fringe 1st rounder, so I don't think the value is there. Either way, the article didn't give the impression that it's based on any insider knowledge and more just an opinion/conjecture.

Would rather have Burns...Wilkins I wouldn’t be mad at, isn’t Ferrel more 3-4 OLB/DE? And is Tillery really worth #16?

I really hope a top guy falls to us though other than Burns, the others seem like they’d be there at #16 or lower.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
