Added bonus Diontae is actually 5'10" 180 so we'll get a real world assessment of BY's size in camp. Settle the size mystery once and for all

We know his actual height from the combine.  5'10" 1/8 was the official measurement.

To put things in perspective…I was trolling a Steelers board and they are saying Donte was: 

Healthy in 2023 and had one of his best years

Tackles well for his size

A ball hawk

Small but plays a lot bigger

Still runs a 4.3 40

Team guy who never takes plays off

An excellent punt returner

I can’t be the only one that saw him get easily blocked against most runs and he is seriously injury prone.  He takes a lot of plays off and was always a liability.  Just my opinion

How many were good nfl players? 3?

Well, that's really not the point, and it somewhat speaks to my point. You don't have to be blazing fast to make it. 4.39 is plenty, especially for a receiver that is quick and has a knack for getting open. Ladd is that guy. Talk about his lack of prototypical size (he's not as small as some or as big as some), or talk about his injuries, but you can't credibly use speed as a reason not to draft him.

Needs:

  • Edge (even if we sign one--second rounder)
  • Corner (Must be a second rounder unless we sign one) 
  • Wide Receiver 
  • Tight End 
  • Sam LB (to replace YGM)
  • Will LB
  • Center

I’d probably still go WR with one of the 2nds, but instead of C, I’d go CB or DE with the other 2nd.

True but he has made some really good open field tackles, against RBs too.

      I'm gonna be a grandpa!  My 2 year old son sat on my lap Panther's inaugural season in Clemson.  Die hard fans ever since.  Now he's going to be a daddy and sharing the fan tradition with a custom made shirt.  Check out the little fella in the sonogram (look closely).

      Top 5 draft targets for positions of need

      By Basbear · Posted

      Watch out now...... I agree but many others disagree with this line of thinking.  I seen a recent summary too- Which would you rather have the best safety or the 8th best edge? Best safety maybe kyle hamilton, the 8th best edge is Maxx Crosby. Id take maxx even with Myles or TJ on the roster. Plus if you don't like Maxx as 8th best, Id take whoever the 8th best edge is over the Kyle.  Panthers need a starter level edge, the only realistic shot is using the 1st rounder. But if somehow a stud LT pulls out a gas mask and falls to 19, draft them if much higher ranked.  The funny deal is those teams drafting in the late portion of drafts don't need edge, QB, WR, or OT..... I wonder why?!??? hmmmmmmm.... plus it pays off for them, cause they do need OG, ILB, TE, safety..... and now they get a top level player to remain great....

      A pretty insane QB stat

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Wrong conclusion. FOs should look at this and say “What can I do to better set up my top pick to succeed?” Not say welp I guess I just shouldn’t draft the most talented player at the most important position. It’s like saying the Cavaliers shouldn’t have drafted Lebron because they did a poor job building around him and he didn’t start winning championships until he left. It’s silly. Should teams also look and say “wow look at all these super bowls won by QBs drafted in the 5th round, guess that’s the best round to draft a QB.” Nonsense.
