Panthers selected XFL S Kenny Robinson with the No. 152 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Robinson (6’2/198) was a two-year starting free safety at West Virginia before he was kicked out of school for academic fraud. Because he’s only three years removed from high school, Robinson was draft-eligible despite playing in the XFL last season (21 tackles in five games). He has quality coverage and ball skills -- he played some corner in college -- but needs to be more physical against the run to be a starter in the NFL. Robinson’s off-field character is in question, but he has the athleticism and ballhawking traits to compete for defensive snaps at safety on Sundays.

How the hell did he enter the draft after going pro on the XFL? Doesn’t make any sense. Why didn’t we just signed him. We did with Walker
 

but Rhule is clearly building a very tall secondary

      Hendon Hooker signed to practice squad

      Well, as far as backups go, Kyle Allen is actually a decent one.  Better at this point than Dalton probably. That being said, Hooker apparently had an atrocious game against the Texans.

      i wouldn't say that yet. I also wouldn't say he's done anything that makes me think he's particularly good. i think that's about right for compensation both ways for thielen considering the state of the vikings and Panthers.  The weirdest thing is that technically the panthers should be adding veteran salary cap right now; they have a high cost first overall qb on a rookie contract; that's the best advantage in the NFL in this day and age. It hasn't worked out because, well, the qb they drafted isn't good and they've ignored other parts of the team to try to bolster him.  so what's morgan really supposed to do? Are they tanking with a rookie qb in year three that the owner probably personally wanted drafted? Are they actually trying to win games this year with 80 career catches between their top three receivers? The defense is probably going to be terrible. What kind of jump are people actually expecting from Coker, Bryce, XL, and performance from a rookie to overcome that? It's not realistic.  At the end of the day I don't think Thielen wanted to end his career here and I don't blame him. Minnesota is going to compete this year and Carolina isn't. I also think this is to toss Bryce to the wolves and be done with him one way or another. There's no way this works. This is not a move you make if you're trying to win football games.

      If he helps them win a super bowl the individual award is irrelevant.
