1st: TRADE!

Panthers trade away 8, 153, 2022 1st and 3rd for pick 3.

 

3: Justin Fields-  Panthers are rumored to Love this kid.  And a Lot of what Fitterer/Rhule is describing, you see Fields.  Putting my ear on the ground and listen/reading what they say.  I feel very much on this Prediction as my Brian Burns prediction the other year.  Fields also reminds me personally of Watson coming out who also fell some despite the tools.  The new QB coach we brought in who coached Watson will be a nice Pair with Fields.

 

2nd: TRADE!

Yes again.  The LA Rams aggressively trade away 57 and 101 to move up for edge rusher Azeez Ojulari.

 

57:  Richie Grant- Rhule fell in love.  You could see the twinkle in his eye.

 

 

 

Not only is Rhule the reason for this pick.  We talk about Fitterer drafting that Defense for Seattle.  And the Defenses identity was the Legion of Boom.  The Legion of Boom wasnt just known because Sherman.  It was know because the Safety Duo of Kam Chancellor and Earl Thomas.  You better believe Fitterer will love the Future going forward with Chinn and Grant together in the middle of the secondary.

73: James Hudson- Hudson is a High Ceiling OT prospect who slips into the 3rd with such a deep OT crop this year.  Hudson is fairly New to the OT position, the former defensive player made the transition to OT in 2017.  He transferred and had to sit out the 2019 season.  Finally getting his chance this year in 2020, he flashed.  He followed up with a good senior bowl week.

Seattle (where Fitterer is coming from)  never really hit OL Heavy early.  Since 2012, 2 of their 9 2nd rd picks have been OL and only 1 1st rd pick.  On par with the Panthers in that time frame.  They've hit on FA, Trades, and late rd picks on the OL.  Hudson fits that developmental guy this staff looks for

101: Aaron Banks- over a Overall rock Solid OG, who while has a good ceiling, its not quite as high as some of the guys that go before him.  Again, falls due to depth of the position.  Banks comes right in and can become a impact starter right away on the OL where both of our starters from the 2020 season are FA's

 

113: Jaylen Twyman- Good Value Pick here.  Twyman, some felt he would be a borderline 1st rd DL coming into this season.    A little small but good athlete, his stock has dropped some after sitting out this season and some other guys jumping him.  We have needed a nice penetrating 3-tech for a while since KK started getting hurt.  Brown was a Beast this season, but he also was among the top of the league in Double Teams seen.  In comes a guy like Twyman next to him to compliment him, and we're looking at one of the top DL in the NFL, especially if he comes close to his potential.

 

 

 

 

185: Shi Smith-  one guy who had a a good week on Rhule's Senior Bowl roster was Smith.  It is Highly unlikely Samuel is back for the Panthers next year.  And Smith is a good option to fill that Slot/WR3 role.

    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
