The lack of centers on the list is not something i'm crazy about.  

maybe they still have their eye on a FA? of course then, with what money?

 

Agreed. Relying on a veteran guard whose been injured the last two years to change positions is not a good plan

I was gonna make this disclaimer too.

Many of the guys teams meet with are for a reason. Not always the case teams are sold-these are job interviews at the end of the day.

Could mean they saw promise on tape but heard weird things about the guy.

So many possibilities and sometimes a guy that is on these lists could have quietly been scratched off our board entirely due to, well a bad interview or visit. 

I think there is a strong correlation but you draft 7 guys and you have 30 visits and as you said there’s a lot of reasons for a visit.

Look at last year’s visits: https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/lists/panthers-top-30-visits-tracker-2023-draft/

The whole theme was around our 1st and 2nd picks. Both Young and Mingo were visits so we had a 100% correlation but again there were a ton of prospects we didn’t take in the 1st/2nd that we had in for visits. Some were likely gone before we could take them and some we just made horrible mistakes on. Unfortunately, it was clear who we were taking and how incompetent Fitterer was.

This year’s visit list likely contains 1 or 2 of the guys we take at 33/39. It would be shocking if neither of those two picks came in for visits. I could see 33 be a surprise due to someone falling way too far but I’d guarantee that one of our visits is pick 33 or 39. The correlation is strong when there seem to be at least 2-3 picks every year from the visit list. This is a bit more of a wildcard year with no 1st because there are more and more options/visit guys picked by other teams. Maybe having 2 2nds close together makes it less of a wildcard because we seem to have a lot of day 2 (and 3) guys in our visit list with 3 picks between 33 and 65.

    • Looking like it might be game 7 for Pitt and Phi. Philly is spent. I like more rest for the canes 
    • Moton is the man through and through. 2 things I'll always give Gettleman credit for, 1 is drafting Moton, the other is building a SB contending roster and blowing it up in one off-season 
    • Kurb is still alive and well.  I’m still friends with him on all of the social media.  He truly is a great man!  That’s my bro!  He always looked out for me since the early days of the huddle.  It definitely makes me sad that he just quit posting here, but that’s life.  He still shares his takes on social media and X, but a lot of the huddle vets just grew tired of this format and the environment, I guess?  It’s a lot of guys that were valuable contributors here that just stopped posting but are still alive and passionate Panthers fans.  Blindsite used to post huge write-ups and was a well-respected poster and then just disappeared.  We had one of these type threads several years ago and he checked back in and explained he just lost the motivation to stay active here.  It was amazing hearing from him again…   I signed up in 04 after coming over from the Charlotte.com boards and been here ever since.  (For those that don’t know - this is Proudiddy - had to change the name very recently due to ‘ol tootsie roll penis and the bad press 😂).  I’m forever thankful for all of you, even those who I haven’t had the greatest history with, I still appreciate yall.  Many have come and gone, both figuratively and literally, and that has put a lot into perspective over the years.  I went from a young, newly married, wide-eyed twenty year-old guy with a baby on the way, to a now forty-two year-old guy, recently divorced and newly re-married guy with my oldest baby now an adult and 5 more kids since.  And what ride it has been!  You guys have been a much bigger part of my life than I really care to acknowledge.😂
