Looks like they will be releasing a position group each day and which players will be coached by the Panthers. Started with the QBs today, which couldn't have worked out better for us...

Trask has been debated extensively on this board and I'm personally not a fan. I'm most interested in Mond, but he and Newman are intriguing. Most likely talking about a backup with them though because I still think there is only 4 potential starters in this draft.

I'll keep adding position groups as I see them. Feel free to add them if you beat me too it. As well as any thoughts on the prospects you've found from your own research.

RB isn't an immediate concern with an elite talent like McCaffery on the roster. With him out, Davis played very well while also getting good reps from Bonnafon, Samuel and Rodney Smith too, but part of building a consistent playoff roster is hitting on depth pieces too. Only McCaffery is currently locked in to return with Davis being a free agent and there being no dead cap associated with the final year on Bonnafon or Smith's contracts. Hill's skill set is of particular interest in this group

A late round RB wouldn't be surprising of Davis isn't retained.

Our WR core looks solid. Even depth pieces like Cooper, Zylstra and potentially a healthy Bayless give promise.

If you can't bring Samuel back, Toney would fill in that role quite nicely and is the best on this list. Smith does a good job with his releases and could be a slot option. Stevenson is a versatile weapon as well with return experience. Rodgers aligns with the other 3 YAC/speed/quicks WRs above.

Clemson WR Powell might draw more interest because of the RZ help he could provide. Same could be said about Palmer, Grimes, Watkins and McMath, who is one to watch closely for late in the draft or after because of his Brady ties.

I'm most interested to see who we'll have on the OL and in the secondary. I think those two units will be areas of major focus this off-season.

Good thread, thanks for creating. 

I too am most excited about our coaches seeing these offensive linemen up close. One of the few positions groups you can find immediate depth at. 

That's the position group I'm looking the closest at as well.

Alex Leatherwood, Liam Eichenberg, Dillon Radunz and Adrian Ealy(as a RT) would be ideal to coach at OTs.

Creed Humphrey, Landon Dickerson and Drake Jackson for centers.

Trey Smith, Deonte Brown, Robert Jones, Alaric Jackson (potential swing tackle as well) for the guards.

Jamie Newman’s draft stock will be trending way up after the week

Reminds me a lot of Jordan Love last year.  Lots of intrigue surrounding him, but teams aren't lining up to be grab him either.  It's probably going to be the same scenario where he's taking to be the #2 guy and groomed to eventually be the #1 guy a few years later.  In other words, a few select teams looking for a very specific role will end up drafting him.  We need more immediate help...not necessarily this coming season, but definitely in 2022.

      Panthers Blueprint

      By frankw · Posted

      Many of those posters are still around. The ones who compared him to hall of famers in this and other sports. They're just biding their time waiting to see if Bryce will suddenly turn into a great QB. I think the way you frame it indicates the problem. It's either on one side people who as you put it "don't like him" (in most instances impossible to truly know on an anonymous chat board) or people who need to see him with stacked talent to form a conclusion after hyping up as a one man show a year ago. You say there are discussions to be had but if it involves anything remotely on the side of negative instead of the "everything is awesome" end of the spectrum it is met with talk of what some are now describing as a pathological need to be critical of him. As if the rest of the sports world doesn't have these same blunt discussions whenever he is mentioned. If there were truly other more notable discussions to be had right now that haven't also been discussed endlessly we would be having them. We just had yet another uniform thread. Instead the top 2 threads dominating the front page for the last 24 hours since the first blueprint episodes dropped have revolved around the starting QB. That's just the modern NFL. Some people want to shoot the messenger over that because they don't like the banter that follows 🤷‍♂️

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      By rayzor · Posted

      #1 thing you need for any rookie QB (as far as personnel goes) is the OL. Second thing you need is a run game that takes the pressure off the rookie and allows him a chance to grow. run games are just easier to manage for someone still learning the ropes. third thing you need is reliable bail out option receivers who can 1) get open and/or 2) just catch the ball. last year we had none of that in place. this year i think we've gotten together everything that he should have had last year.

      Seriously? That's 34 air yards at best. I have yet to meet a Bryce defender who doesn't have laughably low standards by which they judge QB play.
