Outside of the obvious QB, with the other remaining, ugh...five picks I feel we need a NT, TE, RB, WR and (LB or FS).  Gotta get the core offensive skill players to grow together.  The nose tackle is imperative and either a ball-hawking FS or LB for the defense.

So when you all are saying, "We need a NT, I assume that you do not think Tuttle is that player.  We have McCall (340) and Roy (I do not like him, but he is big--330) and Brown could move inside to the nose (320) if we want to rush the passer. 

So if we need a Nose--we do not need another DE.  Is that what you are implying?  Not being critical, just want to hear why everyone is saying that we need a NT.

We need ILBs unless we find a prospect on the outside too good to pass up.  I'd like to develop Shaq's replacement now than try to do it the year he's released.

In my head, I have Shaq, Luvu, and Smith at ILB--with the need to add one.  On the outside, I have Burns, Haynes, and Barno with the need to add one.  I have YGM playing the 3 to 5 (depending on situation) and I have Chinn at big nickel and maybe some other spot not clearly identified in the 3-4 set.  I am simply guessing what I think they will do.

Tuttle can play across the line, but I want a hoss in the middle, he's not big enough. Also Tuttle is essentially just a two year stop-gap. McCall has the size, but can he play there?  Roy can't play it-- he doesn't have the anchor.  Dude got pushed around as a 3-tech.

I'd rather have Brown slim down and play end.

You pretty much hit the nail on the head, although I think Luvu and Smith could play inside or out.  I'd rather keep Luvu inside (savvy veteran) and let the youngster Smith chase the QB.

Me too on all counts. Roy will probably not make the team without his boy here.

Gonna be interesting to see how our defense uses the personnel.  I am struggling to get a clear image of Chinn, Luvu, and YGM--and now the DT situation you present makes perfect sense.

It wouldn't shock me if they ask Chinn to add more weight and become a permanent LB.  I think we get too caught up in Jeremy "wasting" his talents as just a LB since he's got coverage ability.  I mean, with Woods and Bell, the safety position is on lock down.  Being just the big nickle is limiting Chinn, IMO.

I see Luvu and Smith as OLB that can play inside a little.  I would like a true ILB like Jack Cambell.

    • awesome interview. Love the guy. 
    • all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
