John Fox at Bama' Pro Day...

The speculation that John Kasay may be cut from the Carolina Panthers before the start of next season may be heating up. John Fox was at the Alabama Pro Day, along with Tom Coughlin and Rex Ryan. It's my belief that Fox was scouting projected 6th round pick, Leigh Tiffin (K). Leigh Tiffin is Alabama's most productive kicker in school history and was 2nd runner up for the Lou Groza award in 2008.

Now, there are several draftworthy prospects coming from Bama' this year, and it's possible we were scouting one of Bama's CB's, but I am thinking they are projected too high for our need. It seems kicker is the most logical choice.

Other noteable draft prospects:

Terrence Cody - NT - does not fit scheme, 1-2nd Round Proj

Rolando McClain - MLB - does not fit need, Top 15 pick

Mike Johnson - OG - not big enough need to warrant pick, 3rd Round Proj

Colin Peek - TE - No Need, 4-5th Round Proj

Kareem Jackson - CB - slight need - 1-2nd Round Proj.

Javier Arenas - CB/KR - slight need - 3rd Round Proj.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
