Max Borghi RB Wash State

D’Marco Jackson LB App State

The UGA interior OL and Salyer

anyone on the UGA defense

Haven't dove much into the WRs but it’s be fun to land a new one 

 

All good selections.  Borghi is a poor man's CMC.  If we are dumb enough to let Abdullah walk in FA, a RB will need to be drafted.  I'm still not sold on Hubbard as the main guy if CMC is out long term or traded.  Granted, he did get better as the season went on, but a legit #1 RB...I don't see it.

D'Marco is fine, but LB is definitely a need and with the few sims I've done, I have consistently drafted one.

OL is a no-brainer. 

WR, If we take one...very late.  We have WAY too many other needs for a flier type of guy at one of best positions on the roster.

D'Marco Jackson's game shares a lot with how Will Witherspoon used to play here, but with a bit more snaky-ness to  squeeze through gaps in the line. Picking him up in the late rounds would be great. He could be a rotational player in a 3-4 right off the bat and might be the answer to filling the LB spot Chinn left when he was moved to S. Definitely would make a special teams impact if played there -- great sideline to sideline speed and a solid tackler in pursuit.

Should be gone in the 2nd or 3rd round at latest.  Not a day 3 guy.  That said, we have no shot at him because we have no day 2 picks.  My favorite draft site has Smith as OT #6 behind Raimann.  Raimann is projected as a 1/2 selection.

I honestly don't wish for any player come to the Carolina Panthers. What a death sentence for a career. It's only the right fit for a player with little expectation of being good or winning games. 

Actually as a day 3 guy, they might not only make this putrid roster, but actually get some playing time.  On a legit NFL squad, they would be just camp bodies and eventually cut.   Day 1 or day 2 guys, yeah I agree, they should wish to get drafted to about any other place than here.

I'd also LOVE to take a flyer on Justyn Ross.

I thought we were watching the next best thing at wideout during his freshman year title game.  Recovered from one of the worst fluke injuries imagineable with a respectable year with a hyped QB that really stunk it up.  

Ross could still be something special and could be had in the 4th-5th.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      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
