Best Case Pick in 2nd?

Recommended Posts

I am not a big draft geek but I do start paying attention this time of year.  I think I am up to date on our first round pick in that it is totally up in the air.  We could pick BPA or trade back.  Thursday after next is going to be a good night.

But in looking at some of the picks that could be available to us the next night at 39, is Pat Freiermuth, Penn St TE too early?  I saw his highlights and loved how he shined.  I am assuming Pitts will be gone at 8 and I hope we get OL in first so I see second round as CB (Kelvin Joseph?)  Best way to improve our pass rush is adding competent cover corners but still jonesing for Freiermuth. 

Would love to hear about other 2nd round targets.

Depends on where we go at 8 or in the first in general with a trade back possibly but I’m a big fan of the 2nd tier OL 

Alex Leatherwood OL Alabama brings versatility, could play tackle or guard. 

Dillon Radunz OT NDSU another second round tackle who could be a steal 

Richie Grant safety UCf Rhule raves about this kid at the senior bowl and fills a position of need

I would love any of these guys at 39.

I'd love for Asante Samuel Jr to be there but I doubt it 

I'm hoping we see a good bit of progress from Pride Jr TBH. I think with a little seasoning he could be average to good for us. But I do want some actual corner depth for sure, or if another good OL is there I say jump on that ish

They did a good job in the offseason setting up for the draft so it could go alot of ways in that top 50. GM said OL, DL and CB are priorities so focus is there.

S - Moehrig, Grant

CB - Newsome, Stokes, Samuel Jr.

DT - Onwuzurike, Baremore

OL - Dickerson, Radunz, Eichenburg, Humphrey

All 3 of these, or Freiermuth would be good at 39, IMO. Obviously, depending on what we do in the 1st rd.

Good list there! 
 

moehrig is steadily rising, some think he doesn’t make it out of the first anymore. 
 

the only OL I’m not thrilled about is Dickerson, I’m just really really frightened by the list of injuries he complied in college But if he could remain healthy I think that’s a starting guard and eventual Paradis replacement

If we do not pick a LT at 8 I think we need to at 39. Radunz is a good option. I would not complain about Leatherwood or Eichenberg either. There is a pretty good T at Oklahoma that good be an option but I think he has played a lot on the right recently.

If we get a LT in round 1 then we could go a lot of different ways in R2- Safety (T. Moehrig if he falls or J. Holland) or another good O lineman (L. Dickenson, Davis, maybe Humphrey) would be my top options. I'd like a TE too, but besides Pitts, I am not sure there's another TE I'd pick before R3 (just my Opinion).

    • not sure if any of this is news, but a good summary of our situation heading into training camp.  It's sure gonna be good getting Derrick back. After missing virtually all of the 2024 season, Panthers defensive tackle Derrick Brown is aiming for a full return to the field during training camp later this summer, per Joseph Person of The Athletic. Brown tore his meniscus in Week 1 and underwent season-ending surgery that has kept him limited through spring practices, though he did participate in “walk-throughs and light side work” during mandatory minicamp, according to Person. Brown originally stated a desire to be ready for the 2025 regular season, but his timeline appears to have moved up. Brown’s injury was particularly disappointing after a career-best 2023 season. He led all defensive linemen with 103 total tackles and was named to his first Pro Bowl, earning him a four-year, $96MM extension from the Panthers in April 2024. While he has never been a prolific pass rusher, Brown’s size and power has consistently commanded double-teams and created opportunities for his teammates. His impact was evident last season, as Carolina’s run defense ranked dead-last in his absence. The Panthers spent significant resources this offseason on defensive line depth, which should allow them to manage Brown’s usage more carefully coming off a major injury. He played a whopping 940 defensive snaps in 2023 (89% of the team’s total) and was on the field for almost every play before his injury last year. With new teammates Tershawn Wharton, Bobby Brown III, and Cam Jackson ready to share the load, Derrick Brown can take a lower snap share to stay fresh and healthy for the entire season. Here are a few updates on other Panthers returning from injuries:     https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/06/panthers-injury-updates-brown-tremble-barno-wallace
    • Yeah it's kind of like they don't want him on the team anymore for some reason
