I'm usually not a huge fan of mocks, but could you Imagine the outrage if we go through a rebuild for a LB.

Here is PFF's mock for next year, and yes it is too early and nobody expects them to be right, but if anything it will give people some names to watch during the next college football season.

5. CAROLINA PANTHERS — LB MICAH PARSONS, PENN STATE

Parsons is already elite when it comes to making actual linebacker reads, which is an ability that many scouts worried about when it came to Isaiah Simmons’ evaluation. Parsons led the nation with a 94.8 run-defense grade as a sophomore. To play like a grown man at his age is special.

1. Way too early (as you said)

2. PFF is way to metrics-based and IMO should be used as support but not as a bible (as you stated as well)

3. Micah Parsons is a BEAST. If everyone here loved Simmons for what he did last year, Parsons would be a no brainer. He would instantly bring a fearsome athletic Kuechly-esque MLB to our squad. 

Would not hate the selection.... same goes for Surtain II. I think 5 is our ceiling for this draft. Rhule has handled the offseason well enough to put us in position to win each week. We won't be great, but I find it hard to believe finishing inside the top 5.

Yep, probably the most explosive linebacker you’ll see. 

I lost track of how many times I’d see him in the back field before the running back even got the ball. Dude is an absolute STUD against the run and as a pass rusher

As for the mock, I’m taking Trey Lance if things were to shake out like that

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
