I think this guy is Strong possibility 

 

Kup in his recent interview, mentioned and harped on versatile wing guys with size and length.

Sekou's stock has really started heating up fast leading to the final stretch

Kup also mentioned here now as well that they have began to try to trade up all of a sudden 

 

 

 

Also to note, the Hornets will be playing a game In.............France this season.  Which im sure this staff would love to have the young home country kid playing.

Will be gone by pick 12. Again, this is why you tank instead of trying to win moral victories.

He wont be there st 12

But this is basing off the rumor of Kup all of a sudden talking about trying to move up

No idea

Again just basing this off Kups quote the other day that they are trying to move up

I believe almost every team is trying to move up. Whether they have the pieces or not is another story. Depends on what the teams ahead of them want. Not many teams want what we have.

With what pieces.

36? 52? Monk? It doesn't take that much to move up 2-3 places. I would love Sekou if he fell or if we moved up even. Might be shocked to see how high he goes on draft night though, really hard to tell.

I would trade the 36th, Monk, and 12th to move up for him (probably pick 7 or 8). I believe that should be enough. Guy seems to be a legitimate French player for once.

Youngest kid in the draft dripping with potential.

Probably the highest ceiling in this draft.  We need to swing for that.

Yep, a player like that is what this franchise needs. Hopefully he pans out and then we can build around him. Shed some bad contracts. All would be right, if it goes according to plan. We need a plan though as an organization, instead of this mediocre stuff year in and year out.

      Dan looking at a new Conerback!!!

      Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By Icege · Posted

      We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.

      I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
