this draft sucks ass and I find it hard to find any excitement in it whatsoever. the upside of whatever dude we wind up taking will probably be a decent 6th man, which we could use sure, but we need legit talent when we pick high like this. Miller last year kinda helps make up for this year sucking but still a bummer that after such a terrible season we have no good consolation prize.

 

I am excited about the new coaching staff and our young talent already on the roster though, just need to stay healthy (much easier said than done for melo and mark unfortunately)

So why is he only playing 22min a game?

 

Another red flag...

 

7'2 300 pounds this dude will have knee/foot issues down the line. Sorry he's not at the top of my list to draft.

 

 

22 minutes a game due to deep team and coming off a summer injury.  Not my favorite pick for the Hornets but I do like his potential.

Stephon Castle or Zaccharie Risacher.

 

Not really a good draft tbh those are just the 2 I prefer.

Both would be nice to get but Zach will be long gone and Castle doesn’t want to be here.

Personally I have moved to Buzelis.  Once he bulks up and polishes his game he has great upside.  He shot bad in the G League last year but that wasn’t reflective of how he shot in high school.  He is 19 and extremely skilled.  Very good athlete as well.  Do want.

I think Ron Holland is another guy with crazy upside.  His defensive game is awesome.  Would like him too

I'm starting to favor two prospects. Dalton and Dillingham. Robert could be guard insurance for Melo when he misses time, play alongside Melo and Miller and be a leader of the second team. Dalton could be scorer at the perimeter and connect the dots between Miller and Melo at SG. We need to score more.

I think I’d go Knect unless the French guy falls 

I live in Knoxville so I’ve seen a lot of Knect and I could get behind that pick. He is a scoring machine and was the best player on the court more times than not by a decent margin.

He can flat out score the ball, but he will be a defensive liability for sure.

 

I'm fine with Knecht we need more offense tbh.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
