Who do y'all got? Some rumblings...

  • If we stay put at 39, I can see us going the DB Tampa/Sainistril or LB Colson/Cooper/Wilson routes.  Maybe Marshawn Kneeland at EDGE. 
  • Both JPC and Frazier are still available at Center
  • A double dip at WR could be fun - McConkey or Franklin would be interesting guys to compliment Legette. 
  • Don't be surprised if we invest higher than you'd like at RB today (Benson, Wright, Brooks)
  • A presser takeaway - If we're looking for guys to fill roles as Canales described, I think both Wash products in Polk & McMillan would be strong options remaining in this draft that would compliment the WR room we're building.  Can play X, Z, slide inside, do a bit of everything. 
  • Brenden Rice & Javon Baker are two notables with X potential at 65 or later
  • And if we're looking for life after Thielen/not sure about Mingo, I would NOT discount Roman Wilson, Malik Wash, or Corley.

Gut leans DB or LB, but won't be surprised if it's a double dip.

I think I expect edgerrin cooper but also wouldn’t be surprised at a tight end, which will make people freak out, but sinnot is one of those guys every fanbase thinks they’ve discovered as a round 3 gem and is thus potentially going to go a lot higher than expected. Both of those guys got top 30 visits. They’ve done absolutely nothing to bolster tight end all offseason despite aggression elsewhere. 

corner has obviously gotten a lot of smoke as well.

Man if they mess around and draft Ladd at 39, I'm driving down to Carolina for every home game. 

I'll gladly give them my money and my time. I just really want to see the Panthers finally embrace the change in the NFL. O line and playmaking WRs are extremely important in today's NFL.

Ladd or AD would totally turn me around on the XL pick, but even though im not happy about the XL pick I think we have bigger needs at 39 but I would personally still love it lol

Guessing that he joins Maye in Foxboro.

Some of these will fall to 65.  Mark my words!!

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      So to suggest that our offensive weapons might not be as horrible as being claimed if we were to have Josh Allen throwing to them instead of Bryce is a stretch? Maybe they would be better, maybe not. But I'm not going to keep saying we need more weapons and more this and more that with a QB that struggles to get 200 yards passing in a game.  You're right, our receiving corp was ranked in the bottom 3rd of the league. Who was throwing to them? A bottom 3rd QB.  If the team wants to get better it has to be serious about the QB position. We aren't and no amount of adding weapons is going to solve the fact Bryce is a bottom tier QB or that the most serious camp competition he has ever faced was Andy Dalton.  If Carolina fans were watching any other franchise entrench themselves so vehemently around this level of QB production, we'd be laughing like he'll and waiting for our chance to play them twice a year.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      I’ll also say agin, this is why I think we’re in a great spot this year to trade down, and maybe meeting with all these WRs is a smokescreen to try and make a WR needy team over trade to get our pick so we don’t take the guy they want. While at the same time, if Downs falls outside the Top 10, I’d be comfortable with darn near any trade involving our 2027 1st, to move up and get him.  He’s going to be one of th best Safeties in the game for years to come.
