TRADE UP: Round 2, Pick 64 Carolina Panthers select S Jeremy Chinn

[OneBadCat]

I like this pick much better than a pure CB. We need a safety with raw athleticism.

[WarPanthers89]

Love it. Our new Nickel CB/S. Cockrell come on down and work the side opposite Jackson and get one more vet to be decent. We all know our defense won’t be fixed in one offseason but we have had three great picks so far.

So all the “tanking” proponents will really have to shut their mouths- with the offense we already have and the defense we are building this team is going to compete

JEREMY CHINNS, CAROLINA PANTHERS

Panthers traded up to select Southern Illinois S Jeremy Chinn with the No. 64 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Panthers could have drafted Isaiah Simmons at 7th overall but find a similar player 57 picks later. Chinn (6’3/221) was a four-year starter at FCS Southern Illinois who earned an NFL Combine invite after a second-team AP All-American senior season. In Indianapolis, he showcased 98th percentile Adjusted SPARQ athleticism with elite speed (4.45 forty) and explosion (41-inch vertical, 138-inch broad). A slot corner turned safety, Chinn was a powerful hitter against the run and as a blitzer, but he will be exposed one-on-one at the next level if his eyes continue to be glued to the quarterback. Chinn’s floor is a high-level special teamer and depth option in the secondary, but he could be a valuable defender against tight ends and running backs if his coverage skills take a leap with NFL coaching. It’s certainly possible that Chinn plays more linebacker in the

Marty Hurney drafting another small school DB. Trying to convert Chinn into a CB. Just watch. He will never learn from past mistakes. Sherrod Martin and Charles Godfrey

Freak athlete.  Another version of Simmons - can play in the box and safety

[Little Goody Two Shoes]

Fuggin Hurney. Has to pick one guy every year and try to change his position. Not to mention, no one else was going to draft him. Didn't need to trade up!

dude where is the oline picks?

[Waldo]

I like that we have some value for Safety now. Also more fun to look forward to than a 5'8" at NB. Sounds fun.

[pantherj]

We couldn't wait for Chinn?

[Mister]

Nice

I like day 2, solid picks so far. I assume someone put Hurney in the closet. No real reaching, might actually have impact guys on day 2. So different from the last two drafts.

[Louie]

I like it!!!! 3 picks all defensive need positions and great looking picks too!

[Black&BlueBubba]

What did we give up?   Like the player.  Never trust Hurney trade ups.
