I love how I got a B+ for getting Young with the 19th pick. Yeah B+ my ass.

So I think you should do a Mock Draft that is all your own.   Just give us your picks in each round…forget the simulators.

Nobody cares about Sim mock drafts.

OK so these are realisitc picks, not longshots. We have a chance at these players.

 

Pick #1. QB - Bryce Young.

I think the Panthers brass values intelligence over raw talent at the QB position, so they are going Young over CJ. I'm starting to like Young over CJ as well because you can see Young processes information very quickly. That is critical to being successful in the NFL. Maybe he doesn't have a cannon, but if he can manipulate a secondary, and anticipate routes ect then he might be our guy. I still love CJ too.

Pick #39. Edge - Will McDonald IV.

When you address the offense in free agency it allows you to take a look at the weakness of the defense. The most glaring problem is our pass rush. Look at the TB game and see that Burns did nothing and never got close to Brady, and there is no sack artist to pair with Burns on this roster. McDonald will play OLB and get after the QB. He is too light right now but after a season in the weight room you're talking about a beast imo.

Pick #93. CB - DJ Turner. Every Panthers fan should pretty much know at this point that we're going to have injury problems at the CB position. Horn is likely to have some kind of injury at some point, and Jackson has a lower body injury every time his name is brought up by the tv announcers. He's perpetually injured, and now he's coming off a torn achilles as well. Good lord. We have to take another CB imo. D.J runs a 4.26 40-yard dash. He's 5'11 and on the lighter side, but we're at pick 93 now. We're not getting the perfect CB here.

Pick #114. TE - Zack Kuntz.  Dude is 6'7 and runs a 4.55 40 yard dash. Give him a year in an NFL weight lifting program and he'll be ready to make plays for us. He can also step in if we have an injury at TE. Just don't fire the pass at him, loft it up high. Who is going to get it he's 6'7 with long arms? Hello redzone.

Pick #132. LB - Dorian Williams - Poor man's Shaq Thompson. If Shaq goes down, he goes in.

Pick #145.  IOL - Olusegun Oluwatimi - Depth for the o-line. Touted for having strong core strength.

I didn't take a WR because I think we're going to sign another one.

Pick #1. QB - CJ Stroud - Him or Young

Pick #39. LB/Edge - Drew Sanders - Can play inside and outside and have Parson like impact as a blitzer in our 3-4 hybrid front. Really high on this guy on day 2.

Pick #93. CB - DJ Turner. - Seems optimistic in late 3rd, but should be possible according to PFF rankings.

Pick #114. WR - Jonathan Mingo - Big bodied receiver with good hands.

Pick #132. RB - Roschon Johnson - Powerback to replace Foreman and compliment Sanders.

Pick #145.  OL - Tyler Steen - OL depth.

    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
    • Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
