Panthers Select Trevin Wallace LB - Pick 72, Round 3

We have had some good to great LBs. I would think that Morgan asked Luke, TD and Beason their thoughts about this LB class. If these guys think that this guy Wallace is worth his weight in gold, am I supposed to believe Huddle haters or Panther legends? 

Yes, that was rhetorical.

The sideline-to-sideline quickness/ability to cover so much of the field is big in the 2-high shell.  Can ease in for now, but he fits the scheme nicely. 

The more I see and read, I'm kind of getting that feel about him. It's starting to make some sense.

Yep. And also I got the sense that he really doesn't like people who carry the ball.

More popular to whine but I'm going to go ahead and allow the possibility that we have 3 new long term contributors on the roster.

I will say I'm glad they took the 21 year old instead of the injury prone 24 year old if both LB's were kinda in the same tier

It appears to me that Wallace may not be quite as good as Wilson but he had well known coaches that know LB talent when they see it. Wilson may go on to have a HOF career and everyone but the Steelers will regret it. But that can happen with any pick. Wallace is no slouch and could do the same himself. I think we will survive either way.

Not at 220 lbs he won't, and they won't put weight on him if they need the speed.

I love this response. Did you put ANY thought into your response?

3-4. 

Where is he going to play?

He's a natural side to side line player. He's certainly not going to play the edge. 

So where else is he going to play? 

Come on man.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
