Yes!!!  And the odds that we hit on 2 WRs in this draft are even smaller!   Since we added Johnson and have Thielen for another season, maybe we should draft 1 that is most likely to be successful at the next level.  Someone who gets away from press coverage and runs good routes that create separation.  Adding Johnson was HUGE.  Lombardi referenced a stat on McAfee's show that was focused on the success rate of first round WRs--I think it was 27%--the lowest.  That would suggest that second round WRs succeed about 15-20% of the time---making the Panther results not abnormal.

2023 - 3 WRs in round 2 last year.  2 of 3 were instant impact players.

Reed had 912 total yards and 10 TDs

Rice had 935 total yards and 7 TDs. 

Then of course, our pick. 

2022 - 7 WRs in round 2 

3 had 1000K+ seasons as rookies

1 had a 750K= season

1 had a worse season than Mingo did

So what would it take to move from 15 to 4 (Indianapolis trying to get Harrison)?  750 points after swapping first rounders this draft.   Without involving players, that trade would look like:

  • Arizona:  Pick 4
  • Indianapolis:  Picks 15, 46 and a 2025 first round selection.

If the top-4 stays put, I have a hard time seeing LAC staying put.

They become the team NYG and MIN are calling…could see NYG & LAC swapping to assure JJ in NY. The MIN is out of luck/ends up with Penix v Nix.

I don’t think the Giants are too high on JJM

      Week 12: Other NFL Games

      Not all talent can be measured with a ruler and stopwatch. His hands, body control, and skills were ELITE.

      He did have talent, but if you look at his combine/workout numbers...they are not eye popping like many of the combine freaks are. All the best have talent, smarts, and work ethic. What he was able to do in his 40s, he holds all the records after 40. He had two 1k seasons at 39 and 40, no other WR has 1k after 36. He came back from a ACL tear within 9 months after he turned 35 years old. You know this is the era where ACl was a career derail-er and it took most mortal men took a full 12 months and they were never the same. Only two other players have made catches at that age (40) and neither one was a wide receiver. LOL at Tom being one of them....   I also read or heard, he would have still played if not for ST. He was going to play for the broncos in 2006, I think he would have been 44???, he earned a spot as the #4-6 but the numbers game of having WRs play ST ended his career. He could still get open and play, just no sense in having the GOAT run head first into a wedge on KO duties.....

      High praise for TMac

      With a strong finish to the season, he has a real chance at being just the 3rd Panther to make the Pro Bowl in their rookie season (and just the 2nd as a non special teamer) after Cam and Smitty. He won't make it on the original selections, not over JSN, Puka, Pickens, St Brown, London, Jefferson who should all finish with at least the same amount of yards and TDs, if not more.  No rookie is getting selected over all those big name vets with similar statistical seasons. But a couple injuries and/or reaching the NFC Championship and pulling out of the Pro Bowl, he very well could be one of the first couple alternates and end up making it.  Last year the NFC ended up with 7 WRs making it in the end after players who pulled out got replaced.
