I suspect the Panthers are desperately trying to trade up right now

Ok, we have a great selection in Burns for the defense.

Talk of trading up for OL.

I was concerned about McCaffrey playing as much as he did last year.

Not hearing much talk about getting a RB to help lighten his load.

The boy can't keep this up every year.

Maybe I missed something.

Just my two cents worth!!!!

 

Another RB would be good, but I think the perception in this years draft is one can be had on Day 3.

I'd see if Cleveland would take a 6th for Duke Johnson.

#47 + #100 (3rd round comp pick) lands us somewhere in the range of #37. That's as much as I'd consider giving up.

#47 + #116 (our 4th) puts us somewhere around #41.

#47 + #144 (our 5th) let's us bump up around #44.

Sure is expensive to move up. Not sure I'd do it. Seems to hardly ever work in our favor.

I would be ok with the 2nd option. Not really wanting to lose any picks

You want to end Cam's career, then pick Little. He is the second coming of Byron Bell. This would be a disaster. When did he show dominance? Not on the field and he had a disastrous combine. 

You need to call the Panthers immediately because their professional scouts have a first round grade on him. I bet they never even watch youtube.

Well it seems 32 teams watched him and none selected him in the first round. They must know something

Cody Ford is also in play. Unclear which they prefer depending on who you talk to.

There are several still on the board.  I would hold off.  I bet we can get a good Tackle.  But this again comes down to my premise of whether they see Moton as a competent LT. If they do hold tight.  If not go get Little.  I’m fine with that in the second.

Marty has such an incredible track record with Day 2 picks and trading up. I can't believe anyone would even question him.

Would prefer Taylor or Ford over Little.

Little is the very epitome of "underachiever" in his college career.  Why should anyone expect him to change from that role when the difficulty level ratchets up to its highest?

Watching the Failcan't do everything possible to build an OL to run the ball (something I heard Rivera likes to do) and PROTECT THEIR QUARTERBACK INVESTMENT just makes me sad as hell (yet again) for Cam being trapped under Ron "I would have take a shot too" Rivera's incompetent thumb all these years.

    • I hope we're not going all in this year. We couldn't outright win our own division with a losing record. We had 2 anomalous wins. Typically you aren't going to win scoring 13 and have your opponent have an absolute train wreck offense.  Also, a team scoring 16 on 6 trips to the red zone is not normal either. I'm not trying to be a pessimist. We're not there. Bryce isn't there. Most of the year our offense legitimately struggled and the missing piece wasn't a TE. Keep building through the draft and reasonable FA. When we have a team that's on the edge of being able to make a legitimate SB run, then go all in. Otherwise, going all in right now feels like another Bryce situation. Sell out and pray. That's not how consistent winners are built. 
    • XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on.  I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here.  I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths.  At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie. 
    • I think we haven't praised Morgan/tilis enough. In this thread we have some huddles best and its hard to figure out what to do with the 19th pick, if you understand that. Im also posting what "I" believe they are doing and what I feel is best. Those FA signess send a clear signal- They are going all-in to win this coming season. If you factor that in, just believe it first, it 100% changes what going on with pick 19, cause 51st pick doesn't matter as the talent level drop is petty big between the two. So 19 is the biggest difference maker on the current plan of all-in for the 2026.  Then you factor in who will be there at, (I better hold off on my other strong thought here- I think trade up is the best help too, yes using that 3rd to do so too...) DT, ILB(Allen? he didn't run), OC, QB(ooo my I don't want to rage drool my hate again about how I feel here, plus F it draft TY simp not joking)....... those 4 groups don't have the "BPA" at 19. You can add ILB Hill in there, but I feel 19 just is too high, other disagree.  Slot or TE it is......Kenyon is the only TE worth a 1st and he's the classic draft dilemma- All sort of he's a top ten lock to he's a non-blocking one trick WR that's not even worth 2nd currency. Then there's he's the clear winner from the TE group, thus increases his value more no matter the opinion.  Honestly I see the Matt Millen outcome as the current odds favorite, I think the huddle would go bonkers for weeks as result......just the truth tho, WR had the highest odds to be the clear BPA and slot is a need...plus if we are talking about Walker being a one year deal, Coker is a one year too(he may have another controll yr, I got to confirm it tho). Plus God forbid Tmac gets hurt, the drop in talent from him or Coker to Moore is fuging scary, I'd say more than the recent OT stone fellow. It goes back back to adding talent no matter what, draft now help, and where are  the weak points are in the system you want to run....
