Why does ESPN make you pay to read half their articles...it's ridiculous. Anyways, does anyone have insider, Mel kiper had his four round prediction of what each team will do and I was curious as to what he says about the panthers.

Also, isn't it crazy how different people view different prospects? NFL.com has Desmond briscoe listed as the number 3 WR prospect...ahead of demaryius Thomas, golden Tate, and Damian Williams. Most other websites have him listed as a 5-6 round prospect at best.

Carolina Panthers

Top needs: WR, DT, LB, DE, QB

First round: No first-round picks

Second-round (48): DL Tyson Alualu

Third-round (78): QB Dan LeFevour

Fourth-round (112): TE Garrett Graham

Summary: I don't want to bring up again why the Panthers aren't drafting until Round 2 ... anyway. What I like about Alualu is the versatility. He can be a penetrating tackle in a 4-3 scheme (a 5-technique), or become a 3-4 defensive end. He sheds blocks well and gets into the backfield with regularity. LeFevour is a quarterback who I think will need work in dealing with the small windows and timing of the NFL, but he has the athleticism and the arm. He's a guy worth developing. Graham caught a lot of passes at Wisconsin.

No way the Panther ignore WR. Poor job by Mel.

I actually wouldn't be shocked if we didn't address WR till round 6. I know sounds crazy; but a couple of years ago, everyone knew we needed safety help; and we didn't look at safety till like round 5 or 6.

If some guys that Hurney and Fox like get picked early; they'll pick someone who's higher on their board. Regardless of position.

Wasn't it just a couple of seasons ago that defensive tackle was easily the biggest weak spot on the team and we didn't select one until the 6th round and Nick Hayden?

It wouldn't surprise me one iota if we don't go WR in the 2nd and it shouldn't surprise anybody that's been following this team for a long time either.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
