Is Terrace Marshall the rookie most likely to succeed?

How do you rank the rookies so far? 

I think Terrace and Tremble have stood out in all aspects. 

Jaycee looks good minus all the holding. Can he fix it?

The rest haven't been noticeable really.

Rhule did mention Daviyyon Nixon as being impressive so far.

Rhule has a history of praising folks that he thinks need to show improvement. Its a motivation tactic. Also See Thomas, Ian

A little surprised Nixon hasn't stood out a little bit more. He was one I thought that had "diamond in the rough" potential early. 

I guess we shouldn't be surprised that Horn is holding, that was something that he apparently was known for in college. I suspect he is gonna struggle with that all season while he tries to break old habits. Also, it's rare for rookie CB's to be stellar, so I am not gonna get all over him unless he still has the same bad habits in year 3, 4, etc.

So not much to write home about Hubbard either? How about our LS battle?

It is not unreasonable to propose that we have the potential to have the ROY on offense and defense.

Discuss.

Considering that corners rarely win DROY, it will be a long shot for Jaycee. And with TMJ, same draft class as Trevor Lawrence, so another up hill battle.

But you're right, it's certainly not an unreasonable proposition.  Just unlikely at face value.

I don't think Marshall gets enough touches and yards to be OROY with DJ and Robbie ahead of him.  I just don't think a WR has a chance if they aren't WR1/2.

I would be pleasantly shocked if Horn is DROY.  CB isn't usually a position that wins it, but this year could be different.  Looking at his competition....Barmore?  Paye?  Surtain?  Idk who will emerge as the season progresses but there isn't an obvious favorite like last year.  So there's a chance I guess.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
