what does the board think.....tates prob of the board when we pick also benn is prob gone. i think this kid has alot of upside and is under the radar. mel and todd have him in the second round if he comes out and think he fills the need of big number 2 we need.georgia tech does have a nice pedigree of wrs with the last big name being calvin johnson...tomas is in the same mold but might be a few steps slower. he cought fire towards the end of the season and was productive even in a run first option offense....

I posted this about him in the thread I started about the Panther's options at WR next season.

Coming out of Georgia Tech, the guy is big, fast, and has great hands. Physically, I don't think there is a match for him in the upcoming draft class. He reminds me of Andre Johnson. He's a specialist in deep route running. If you are shooting for a big guy rather than a someone quick like Tate that's where I would look in the second-third round.

After playing in GT's run first offense, the guy knows how to block, and is built to do so well. He would be the perfect compliment to our running game, and is easily the best replacement for Moose when it comes to run blocking. He's 6-3 230 lbs and is not easily matched up with by puny cornerbacks or safeties.

Let's see how the combine goes.

^^^^

We'll see. Dude is huge as hell, and nobody will be able to match him on the deep ball

The only thing people is concerned about is his ability to run other routes than the go. His 40 may been lower than people will think. Difference is he gets faster as he goes on cause of his long legs

If he do well at the combine, idk if we'll get him with our pick

of Thomas manhandling and outrunning just about every defense in the ACC while leading the nation in Yards Per Catch this year. Watch the play that starts at 47 seconds in when he owns a couple of Miami defensive backs. Not only is he fast and agile, but he runs like a truck.

that's not a problem. as long as we have a deep threat aside smitty (which we currently lack) we're set... smitty can have a hayday as an underneath threat. i would be in favor of this.

Jarrett is 6'4" and 219lbs.

I lose 2lbs on a good Zod.

Let's see how he comes off a blocker in the combines, his 40 speed, vertical, and cut ability before we crown him.

he has never run a route in his life and gets thrown to maybe twice a game

he plays in the most gimmicky offense in division 1A

he's going to blow up the combine because he's a monster but man alive is he a project.

I wouldn't mind getting this guy. We just need a player that defenses can truly respect besides Smith. It seems like Matt Moore can make Jarrett work. Maybe get this guy and a FA like Breaston and I think we're set. But this does seem like a high risk high reward player. Tate might be a more proven commodity.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
