Love the Isaiah Thomas pick. I've mocked him to the Panthers with their late 4th round selection.

Cade Mays could be decent depth. I especially like the value in the 7th.

I hate the rest of it tho.

I’ve mocked Thomas and Mays as well. Mays has played some center and has experience at all 5 positions

I am certain about this:  Nothing is certain.  It is not certain who we will pick, if that pick sucks or goes to Canton.  Just gotta hope for the best. 

NFL Network did a piece on "Twitter Rage" where they looked back at the tweets from the 2018 draft, for example.  Many People in Buffalo were outraged when the Bills selected the "wrong Josh" (they wanted Rosen).  So for those of you pretending to know who will be good and who will bust---I have this for you:  You could be wrong.  

There.  I said it.

Dang. In this draft, at their slot, only Mays in the 7th seems like we are getting above slot value.

FWIW, Brugler says in the description of the 6th pick that he’s not sold the Panthers are taking a QB:

 

6. Carolina Panthers: Kenny Pickett, QB, Pittsburgh

There is zero consensus around the league on where the run on quarterbacks will start, so it is tough to feel confident about this projection. There’s a decent chance I won’t have a quarterback here in my final mock draft, but the Panthers haven’t been coy about their interest in the quarterback prospects in this class

      What a franchise QB looks like

      By strato · Posted

      3 years to figure it out and the answer has been the same every time.  Think they will try a different solution? Bryce and Andy lol. I hope so but it is hard to have any faith in them to do that.  The Cam stuff, I don’t think anyone is talking about that thinking he is a solution for 2026. Just wishing we had some of his ability at the position now.

      The time adjustment plus this weather might be the only leg up we get. Just run it 40 times between Rico and Chuba lol.

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      My amateur opinion … It’s that footwork and his overall mechanics that stop him. Short sucks too but his accuracy and timing and velocity, all compromised by his technique.  Not enough natural arm strength there to overcome it. I am not sure what another year would do if he isn’t fixing that stuff. Or two years.  If he could have things straight and squared away he could maybe get enough out of his abilities to play consistently week to week.  He will still be limited by things like field vision and what someone pointed out this week that I had never noticed or considered - trajectory on really short near field throws like goal to go situations. They said the arc he needs to clear the d line guys is such a high angle that it is hard to get the ball back down soon enough. Which boy, that is a can of touch pass worms there if you think about it. Like shooting a basket where defenders can goal tend. You have to throw it so soft that defenders can close on it. Receivers would have to use their bodies to shield.   Then you are left with rolling out to see the field and get a lane, which shuts down half the the field and is easier to defend. It’s really tough. You go looking for negatives, or impediments, they are there to find.
