So basically we have no idea who will be drafted

I’ve gone back and forth… watching Stroud all year thinking we might have a chance at him, I didn’t like how he struggled under pressure. When he gets in a rhythm he really shines though. Then the UGA game happened and I’ve been all in on Stroud since. But lately, I’m starting to hope it’s Bryce, he just seems like he’s “that guy” on and off the field and could be a true game-changer for the franchise similar to Cam when he stepped foot in Charlotte. Not saying that I don’t think both will be successful in the NFL, but if we pass on Bryce I could see us regretting it down the road as he turns around the Texans and becomes a face of the league.

Yeah I am seeing something special about Young’s ability to perform under pressure and just make plays like Mahomes. It’s only his size that worries me

From Gantt's latest mailbag...

If the Panthers have the No. 1 pick, why do they need to "put up a smokescreen," as one reporter says? Who the heck are they faking out? — Mitchell, Clover, SC

I'm not sure who that reporter is; maybe stop listening to them. That sounds silly.

There are plenty of false prophets out there in the world because a lot of them apparently get paid by the word or maybe by the tweet.

Because if anyone tells you they know what the Panthers are doing, they're lying. I know this for sure, because the Panthers don't know yet.

They've been intentional to not decide while they're collecting evidence, and they're going to be collecting evidence for another couple of weeks. Reich said as much Tuesday back in Arizona, and they're not just going to Gainesville to add to their Marriott points balance. Though they have plenty. Once they're home, they're bringing the final four (unlike the basketball Final Four, I've heard of these guys) in for visits.

They'll talk more, and they'll eat more food, and maybe they'll find a basketball goal so Josh McCown can play a little horse with them.

(Side story: Reich is also a bit of a hooper and said he liked to take the court with potential draft picks on visits as part of his evaluation. He's not as athletic as the 43-year-old McCown, though he was quick to add: "but I can still shoot." Challenge him at your own risk.)

I don't know why, and this is totally unfounded and solely my opinion, but CJ stroud gives me Kirk Cousins vibes and I haven't the slightest clue why.

An aggressive Kirk Cousins would be a really good QB

Instead he’ll forever be check down Kirk which is why he’ll never win a SB. If Stroud can be an aggressive version of Kirk, that honestly wouldn’t be so bad

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
