I think it should be Troy Franklin, by all accounts a Dionte Johnson clone, and who better to mentor him that Diontae himself.

I see the reason we would do that--then we'd be scary next year even if Thielen and Johnson leave.  I see why we'd draft Van Pran, the C from Georgia when it is possible that Corbett can't cut it and his contract expires in 2025.  I see why we'd draft Sanders (TE Texas).  I see why we would draft a CB--our biggest need right now--

As for your Franklin argument,  he has the potential to become a WR 1.  A FOURTH ROUND selection.

TE: Ja' Tavion Sanders, Johnny Wilson

DL: Mo Kamara, Edefuan Ulofoshio

WR: Brandon Rice, Javon Baker, Malik Washington

😄 Van Pran

I know you did not just disrespect Van Pran  ( C and : does that--I hate it.) I have also wanted to move Wilson to TE--and that could be an option in round 5.  I think we need to take Frankin (WR--to make that room scary and to prepare for a Johnson and Thielen exodus next year), Van Pran Granger (The center who would take over at the latest next year), or  a CB like Tampa.  

I like the Kamara pick.  He is a second round talent.

Considering all this Sed Vann prann seems like the easy pick but we will do something else. 

I don’t get the urgency to invest in center after signing $150M worth of guards with Corbett still around. Lots of centers convert from other positions. Why would everyone have been cool with it if, say, Barton converted coming out of college, but it’s a problem now that Corbett’s doing it in the NFL?

4th- WR Troy Franklin, WR Tez Walker, C Ced Van Pran, any of top remaining CBs (James, Tampa, Carson)

After that, players I’d like to see as Panthers:

TE Jared Wiley

TE Jaheim Bell

WR Johnny Wilson

WR Malik Washington

WR Jacob Cowing

C Beaux Limmer

LB James Willams (put him in Luvu’s role and let him wreak havoc)

I wouldn't say it's an issue with talent because I personally think Corbett is gonna do great at center but having him has our only center on the roster after coming off 2 knee injuries in back-to-back years and being on the last year of his deal is worrisome. We are another Corbett injury away from starting Cade Mayes again. Hopefully they let Brady Christensen get some practice at center too even though I think his future is still the eventual Taylor Moton replacement on the right side.

My concern is injury. I don't doubt he can be at least serviceable.

Corbett is the only viable option on the roster  and coming off 2 knee injuries. I don't believe you can ever rest on your laurels when it comes to OL.

I don't think anyone would be cool with assuming  the Duke guard can be a starting C from the get go.

I view BC as viable at any OL position. Hopefully he’s our backup C if we don’t draft one.

Jacob Cowing in the 5th or 6th

He's going to be a longtime successful slot WR in this league, I'm quite convinced of that.

Have him back up Thielen this year to learn and then take over as the starting slot WR next year, he'd be Bryce's safety valve with his crisp route running and sure hands.

He's also the 5th fastest player in the draft.  I wonder how he would do as a kick returner.

    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.  
    • Jackie, any more reps tomorrow, or is that it for this session?  thanks for the work
    • How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
