The top QBs went 5-7 and left Levis on the board, so I went with the best LB in the draft. Took two of the top TEs to rebuild that position. Took a guard and center for line depth. Added a huge athletic freak at DE and took a WR/returner. In the 7th round, took the top kicker and a flyer on a RB.

Ibrahim isn't bad, just a history of injury (if I'm thinking of the right guy).  I like the double dip at TE.  I've mocked Harrison to us a bunch. Hoping Bozeman takes a hometown discount is unlikely.  We will have very little FA signing space, so drafting a center is a must.  Obviously we needs LBs, I've double dipped in several mocks there--one ILB and one OLB.

Sewell just happened to be there that time. I've mocked double dipping at several positions of need while ignoring others. lol Getting ready to post another mock with a double dip at TE.

This one ended up with a slight trade back in the first round for another second and additional 2024 first. That nets me two of the top TEs, a pass rusher, and some ammo to move up for a QB if Nix and/or Corral don't work out. Double dipped at WR too. The Panthers probably need depth there to challenge Smith, Marshall, and co, if nothing else. Took a mid round RB to replace a certain vet people want to resign even if the rookie isn't a huge bruiser. Added a new center and some depth for the Oline as well.

I like the first seven of eight picks.  Nix just stated he's headed back to school and Ward is leaning that way.  The middle of the pack which was supposed to be the depth/strength of this class dried up in a hurry.  Next year though, especially if Williams and Maye declare. Wowza!!!!

Not super hyped about the first pick, but I feel it's something the Panthers would do.

Haha, was thinking the same with this one.  

I like Stroud for all the ability and tools, but something about his crunch time work is what gives me pause.

I think Stroud just lacks experience in crunch time. OSU usually handles their opponents with relative ease. He is definitely a question mark in that category…

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
