At 9, The Carolina Panthers Will Select

Micah Parsons, LB, Penn State

I know many of you are stuck on QB, but it just makes no sense to reach on a QB when you have the second coming of Luke Kuechly in the draft.  Before anyone says its a stretch to pick him that high, we picked Luke at the exact same spot in 2012.  This guy has rare size speed combination and the abilty to diagnose a play quickly. As a bonus we have the man himself, Kuechly, to help and mentor him.  He, paired with Shaq, would instantly upgrade this defense. This guy has only scratched the surface of his potential and will be a stud MLB for the Carolina Panthers.

Parsons is a unique talent. As an off the ball linebacker Parsons is one of the best prospects to enter the NFL Draft in recent times. He fits the mold of a modern day NFL linebacker. In a league that is increasingly valuing speed, Parsons will be able to play every down in the NFL due to his ability to get sideline to sideline and run downhill. 

Parsons’ versatility to blitz, rush the passer, run stuff and play in coverage will be a dream for defensive coordinators. You can use him in a host of different ways because Parsons is able to do everything. He is an explosive athlete who has good burst and speed to be disruptive in every aspect of the game.

Parsons is extremely useful when blitzing and pursuing the passer and it is one of his best traits. He is a leader on defence who will start from day 1 in the NFL. Parsons has no where near hit his potential and his ceiling is as high as it goes

The linebacker also has great size for the position. At 6’2″ 244 lbs he can match up against any position and will come in particularly useful against tight ends. Parsons has a great change of direction along with good instincts and high football IQ meaning he will cause problems for opposing offenses. 

Micah Parsons is drawing comparisons to former Carolina Panther Luke Kuechly. That’s because they both share great size, production and speed. This should show the potential Parsons has. Without trying to reach too high too soon, he could be considered one of the greats at the position.

almost as useless in making our team better as the florida TE. off the ball linebackers are worth jack poo in todays nfl. the only linebackers you should be drafting top 10 are 3-4 pass rusher specialists like von miller.

I get it.  Millions of ways to do this--but I am taking Sewell or a QB.  Sewell is likely to be gone, so I would take any of the top 4 qbs.  Reach?  not if there is no real chance of getting a QB next year.  I would not be angry with Jones or Trask if we trade back or in round 2...

    • Jalen is the most productive receiver in the league per routes run. now obviously this is just routes run/total yards and the scheme can play havoc with this calculation but he’s in good company. Puca is number 2.  im not sure that x axis is relevant, but my god Metcalf is just getting mugged.     Per next gen stats Jalen reached the top speed in the playoffs. Newton’s first law of motion stays winning. Coker was also the best looking player on the field against the rams. To me he looks just like a young anquan boldin.  Coker made just over 830k in 2025. He is an Exclusive rights free agent in 2026. This means if the panthers tender him with a one year contract based on the league minimum, he has to play here or nowhere else. He’s not allowed (wink wink) to negotiate with other teams   In 2025 the ERFA was 1.03 million, or 3.1% what Joe person claims Bryce Young is worth annually. three years is the cutoff to become vested in the NFL pension, with higher benefits per year accrued after that. For those that have never heard of a pension, back in the day before boomers “two in the heart, one in the head’d” future generations, your job handled your retirement.  Three years of service also unlocks a whopping five years of health insurance; big deal for a player who still qualifies for his parents coverage. Great system, NFL. Roman gladiators were treated better. Electro, I just became a fan when Bryce got here and I can only name three people on the team. Why does this matter? NFL players don’t make money for very long. 40% never get a second contract. A season ending injury can happen at any moment, especially when your qb is a blimp commander who can’t see over the offensive line. Ickey was in line for a massive payday that he absolutely earned. He lost generational wealth (Chris rock joke here) with that patellar injury and who knows if he’ll ever play the same again. He’s certainly not going to get that new contract which is rough but it’s the way things go. Coker absolutely should not play another down for the Carolina panthers without a new contract. He just had a huge coming out on the national stage and has the numbers and tape to back it up. He's the best wide receiver on the team. Yes I know tet got (a very chintzy) thousand yards but Coker is pound for pound the better player. And that’s saying something because Jalen loves him some orange chicken. If he was a free agent this year he’d be the top WR on the market. Panthers have a lot of (honestly very easy) cap choices to make. For whatever reason they’ve already verbally committed to Bryce’s fifth year and are floating a three year extension. They’ve started hemorrhaging offensive linemen, soul of the team JJ Jansen will need his 1.4 million if he comes back, and of course you gotta lock down Leadership Council stalwart Christian Rozeboom. I would argue that instead of giving the worst qb in the league over the past three years another fuging dime you lock up and reward Jalen Coker. This shows the rest of the team that production is valued, regardless of draft position, and keeps Jalen in the building and team training program. Again, Jalen likes to eat. Will the panthers recognize this? I wish I could say the panthers head coach is good at evaluating wide receivers but….yeah. Also Canales let him clear waivers to begin with. Anyway Jalen should be the top contract priority fug Bryce fug Canales Hail Satan
    • The padded practice restrictions have definitely impacted the game. 14 padded practices during the 18 weeks season and no more than one per week. That's crazy to me. But... As for Legette, he probably is in the best place possible to learn under those restrictions. But drills will only go so far. And it really isn't drills for him. It's knowing all the little intricancies of how to be a WR. That only comes from game experience, in my opinion. Being put in different situations at game speed. Hopefully he puts everything into this offseason. I'm cheering for him. This team needs him.
