Interesting article that could see us potentially trading down to grab Mond in mid-late first round.

Carolina Panthers head coach Matt Rhule gave high praise to Texas A&M quarterback Kellen Mond.

The MVP of the Senior Bowl was coached by Rhule and his staff this week and left a strong impression by throwing for 173 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday’s college All-Star finale.

“We’re talking about a really, really football smart guy here,” Rhule said after the game. “You give him a play and he knows it. He kind of got into a rhythm there in the third quarter, just ripping some seam balls, making some plays. I think he’s got a bright future.”

Mond finished an outstanding 2020 season, leading the 4th-ranked Aggies to a 9-1 record with a 41-27 Orange Bowl victory over No. 13 North Carolina. The San Antonio, Texas native threw for 2,282 yards with 19 touchdowns and three interceptions.

In CBS Sports’ latest Round 1 mock draft, analyst Chris Trapasso has Jones and Mond going in the first 32 picks, but not Trask. We’ve seen plenty of projections for Trask in Round 1, but these are some of the first projections for Jones and Mond in the first round.

 

Rhule said the same thing about Jones 

he also said the same thing about Bridgewater 

he says a lot of things

you cannot fix his level of inconsistency

Therein lies the rub. Sometimes the right coach can find the right technique and you develop the guy into a winner. Most times you don't, though, and you don't even develop a decent back up QB.

Based on what I saw and heard from scouts who were in Mobile, I don’t think the Panthers will be trading back for Mac Jones, Jamie Newman, Kellen Mond or any of the other Senior Bowl quarterbacks. It was an underwhelming week for them — they generally looked more like backups at the next level.

Absolutely ZERO way we take him in the first round no matter how far back we trade.  I would have serious reservations about taking him at 39. Now, trade back again, picking up even more picks and taking him late 2nd round I would be fine with.  Not completely happy, mind you, but not upset either.

This. There’s no scenario where I’d feel comfortable taking Mond in the first and I’d even prefer not to take him in the second.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
