Okay, let's make those final predictions for the Carolina Panthers 2023 draft. Who do you think we'll be taking?

First Round: Pick 1: Bryce Young, QB Alabama

Second Round: Pick 39 Mazi Smith, DT Michigan

Third Round: Pick 93 Brenton Strange, TE, Penn State

Fourth Round: Pick 114 Byron Young, Edge, Tennessee

Fourth Round: Pick 132 AT Perry, WR, Wake Forest

Fifth Round: Pick 145 Dorian Williams, LB, Tulane

Honestly, though, I can see us trying to trade back into the second round.

Simulated my mock based on what I feel might happen. Not my wants. Traded #39 down to #52 and traded #179 (I forgot but somewhere around there) to #201 and #203 and a couple 2024.

after the first pick i've got no idea where we pick because Fitt will be trading all over the place.

when the dust settles we'll have walked away with 

Young

Ringo (CB)

Mingo (WR)

Brenton Strange  (TE)

Adetomiwa Adebawore (DL/EDGE)

Noah Sewell (LB)

 

 

 

maybe.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
