Who is it going to be?

Here is a pretty nice list for anyone interested in the top 50 or so wide receivers in the draft. I think it's more plausible we get a WR than one in FA for obvious reasons. So here are the (according to author but I think its pretty good) top 50 or so prospects HERE.

I don't think we have a shot at anyone that seems special right now. What I want to know is does anyone have a list of teams that will most likely draft a WR before the Panthers? I want to be able to try and narrow down to a few of these guys...

might draft a WR before us:

dolphins(MIGHT)

broncos

ravens

bengals

packers(BIG Maybe if Driver retires)

patriots(IF Moss is traded/released, which I doubt)

texans(IF Walter is not re-signed)

the best WR available if all these teams draft one is probably jordan shipley or andre roberts

So three mights and four even smaller mights? Theres still a chance! lol

Jordan Shipley isn't going anywhere in the Second. And rightly so. He's not much more than a slot receiver, isn't gonna do anything to take pressure off of Smith.

Also, I stil say we wait for andre Roberts in the 3rd. Unless Arrelious Benn falls to us in the Second. Then it's a different story.

Trindon Holliday of LSU. He's only 5-5 and 161 of so, but he's probably the fastest player at the combine at a 4.25ish 40, and can return kicks like a beast. Very similar to early Smitty in my eyes. He could be a steal in the 5th/6th.

Another guy similar is Brandon Banks of K-State. 5-7, 155. 4.29 40 time. Probably the best kick returner in the nation last season.

yeah I have him in the 6th round in my mock, we could keep him as a 5th WR or a RB. He was a RB in college. He would be an exclusive special teams guy for a while though, be really hard for him to get on the offense.

I think Gilyard will be a better NFL returner he's a lot more agile. Holiday runs pretty out of control even though he's incredibly fast. The holes aren't going to be nearly as big in the NFL and he'll need to work on his cuts. I'd still love to get him though.

    • 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. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
