It’s that time of year…..drop your best mock draft if you like….Wish lists…trades….discuss…

Just ran a simulation, loved it, although I doubt it will fall this way.

#8. mason graham. #57. Deone walker.  #73 Josh Connelly.  #108. cobee Bryant.  #122. Dj Giddens.  #140 Malachi Moore.  #148 Latham ransom.  #164. Danny stutsman.  #228 nick nash.

keep pounding! Next year playoffs!

I wish the Panthers would use a 6th round draft pick on the best field goal kicker available. I have watched the L.A. Rams all year with a rookie kicker. Joshua Karty from Western Alamance High School in Burlington, N.C.-Stanford University has been steady for them all year. He was a 6th round pick.

That's a damn good point. Kickers are so very important and to be able to get the best in college late in the draft seems like a solid decision and risk to take to me.

We only have a 7th in the last two rounds and a 5th is probably a little high unless we are talking about getting the next Justin Tucker. 

TBH, a lot of those teams making those kicker picks aren't struggling with massive roster issues like we are.

Went for leverage at OT in this draft:

With contract discussions needed for both Icky and Moton this year, it would help tremendously to add rookie Jones to the mix. If either of the two on our current roster have unreasonable demands, we’ve secured our OL. We need to be grooming Moton’s replacement anyway. 
 

Also hope that we just drafted one or two immediate starters at the safety positions.

      Who are the top QB prospects for the 2015 draft?

      By 45catfan · Posted

      @ForJimmy--I watched his '24 highlights and there's a lot to like.  He's mobile, for certain, but it seems that's his default because he's so good at it.  Lots of RPO stuff.  He's slippery in the pocket, but too quick to vacate it.  I saw very few pocket throws into tight windows, which is the hallmark of an elite QB, especially at the next level.  Green is a playmaker, there's no denying that.  I thought his arm was adequate to above average.  I assumed a big QB like that would have a cannon.  Ball placement was also above average. He's an intriguing prospect, but I'm not sure he's going to end up a top 10 prospect and that's where we are most certainly going to be picking.  If Sellers doesn't come out, he's probably the next best dual threat QB.

      I was right there with you. I hoped for the best and tried to support once he was drafted. But the media created legend of Bryce Young the draft prospect was honestly like nothing I've ever seen. For a kid who didn't even play all that particularly great for Alabama (Mac Jones was the better college QB and it really wasn't close) he received an insane level of benefit of the doubt. From his supposed elite football IQ elite processing elite preparation elite field general abilities elite leadership yada yada the guy could do absolutely no wrong. Even when he showed up to the combine and hid out in a hoodie refusing to throw nobody batted an eye. And even after that he was still compared to current and past hall of famers in the NFL and other sports across the spectrum. If he didn't play for Saban and Alabama it would have been and would be right now completely different in the way he was and is perceived. But again. I've never seen anything like it for other prospects that I can think of in recent memory. Others have been dissected in some way or another. Maybe the only other comparison I would make would be Andrew Luck. But Luck had the necessary physical intangibles that Bryce Young very plainly lacked when you sit down and watch the tape. It was crazy then and it is still crazy now. 🤷‍♂️

      Yeah I didn’t remember how many guys were on offense besides him that were taken but did figure he was facing one, maybe two guys that would be drafted from whatever defense it he was playing. Then the out of conference games against smaller schools that are basically exhibitions, sheesh, you know they can feast.    The other thing is, out of those 62, how many really had NFL bodies at that point? Few of them. Most will be different players after a year of NFL training and body development. So you have to think about what the difference is. Even with the SEC guys that got taken, they will be better in the pros too. So when you factor all that in, and look at the Bryce tape and the Bryce pro day and whatever, I just will never understand why.
