1. He played at USC, so you just affirmed you know nothing about the guy and still have an opinion. 

2. I'm a UNC fan. 

Leggette played at USC. 

CRA is a Clempsun fan

Hence him devaluing Leggette

Anything else you need explained?

I mean, I’ve been lobbying for Leggette for weeks and weeks.  And it started before the combine….but now I’m some Clemson hater?  

my ideal draft I was pitching was a back to back of some sort of Mitchell and then Leggette back to back play and that was before we picked up that 2nd. 

and the top of the 3rd was a possibility then.  Now people are driving him up their boards higher.  Which happens. 

so yeah, I’d love Leggette.  At the right place. Which isn’t the 33rd.

I’ve been a Leggette praiser bruh.  Tons of threads where I’m arguing for him.  I mean, he has been part of almost every mock scenario I have pitched since pre-combine.
 
I just don’t want him at 33.   Say that one thing and you erase all my Leggette stan posting lol.

Wilson is a huge medical red flag. I'd rather us target BPA out of WR, OT, OG, C, DE, CB at 33 and 39 anyway. positional value matters 

Nearly all teams pass on Cs if you are talking value. I mean name one C drafted in the top ten that you can remember?(I got nothing and I was a former draft nut) Plus remember Kalil fell to the Panthers and forced them to draft him even with hartwig was here with a big contract. 

For me C is just like TE and DT(well it use to be), its soooo undervalued. To me center makes the OL go, but come draft day and pay day, teams disagree.

PFF's Monson thinks Legette is a good option for the Panthers.

 

"Teams often look to trade back up to the first picks of the second round after they get a chance to gauge the players who fell. Last year, Tennesse jumped into Pick 33 to select quarterback Will Levis, and the true best-case scenario for Carolina is that a trade partner gives them a reason to move back. Last year, Arizona moved back eight spots and picked up an extra third-round selection to do so.

"If Carolina got the same deal, they could still grab their favorite receiver, only with an extra draft pick along the way. South Carolina’s Xavier Legette would add size and speed to this group, as well as a contested-catch skill set not currently on the roster."

Exactly what I'm thinking they will do. If Legette is taken, they will draft Corley.

Joe Person has us taking Legette at 39 in his 2.0 mock. He had us trading away 33 to the Jags for 48, 153 and a 2025 second rounder. Another terrible trade to go with the one he had in his first mock.

I just have 2 wishes for this draft.  Don't trade down.  And get a WR in the 2nd.   Just get BPA at WR.  Last thing we need to do is water down picks when we don't have a 1st to begin with.

So we want Leggett who is a Mingo clone over McConkey whose production is in amongst Waddle, Olave, M. Brown, Smith-Njiba and Nacua?

Seems a very Panthery move.

Leggette is not a Mingo clone.  That's just calling a dude who is short Steve Smith.   They had different trajectories and peaks in college.  They weren't playing the same game in college at their college peaks. 

I don't want him over Ladd.  But he isn't Mingo coming out.  If Mingo was in this draft, he is behind Leggette.

Where'd you get we want one over another? Both are confirmed to have visited.

He's raw like Mingo. Point being another physical specimen that needs a lot of refinement isn't what we need.  Again, we already have one of those.

We brought him in, so there's interest.  I can think of several WRs I'd take before Legette.  Doubtful he's the best WR on the board at #33--or even #39 for that matter.

    • Draft picks are better for cap management and production always outperforms athleticism over time.  
    • awesome interview. Love the guy. 
    • all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
