Round 1 - Carolina Panthers Select CB Jaycee Horn

Wanted our pick from Sewell, Fields, and Horn...  so I'm not mad at the pick, although its a bit underwhelming for where we were.  It would look a lot better if we could've found a partner to trade back a few picks, but then again, Denver took Surtain at 8, so he probably wouldn't have been there if we moved back.

So, if we just got a Revis for the next 10+ years, we just made a great pick.  I just really hope they are right on Darnold, but after their belief in Bridgewater, color me concerned.

I mentioned on here this morning that based on Snows comments awhile ago and the way trade down talk that Horn was our guy. Saints were also looking to potentially move up and Horn may well have been their target. Whether Darnold pans out or not is yet to be determined but we for damn sure will have an elite defense in the Carolinas again in the coming years. An entire draft of defenders last year and starting the draft this year with the top rated CB. I wanted Sewell, but I don't hate this pick. Especially in a division that is absolutely loaded at WR and a roster very thin a CB.

Just now, RumHam said:

You see his size? Surtain is small. We now have someone who can match up with thomas, julio, and evans

Surtain isn't exactly small. Horn has the better athletic profile, the pedigree, and matches up well with NFL receivers. Especially Julio.

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
