He's also already pretty good against the run.  Has some inconsistencies from time to time, but sheds off blocks and moves laterally very well to get to the runner.  Def a fan.  I see a Will McDonald with better burst.  Needs to pack on some meat, but he's a really strong prospect.  

Projected top-5 overall preseason.

He's gone under the radar for sure. He could have gone late 1st and ended up on a playoff team but now he's worked his way into top 10 consideration at least.

A few people have had him top-15 overall for a minute like PFF and I think it holds true. His potential on top of a decent floor is sky high. And at a coveted position. Personally think he’s PR #2 after Carter.

I think he is myself. Just depends on how motivated he is to be the best. Right most these nfl guys mock him in the late 1st. It's hard for me to believe that considering the competition in this class.

If I remember right, five months Peace was the early #1 on most boards. 

Then he had a ho-hu 2024 and dropped to the 20s.

It's just a bad year for 6-20-30 draft picks, it's basically the same tier.

He looked tall to me as well. 

Even before this combine, I had no issue with peace at 8

If it were me I would probably pick Graham if he's there and Pearce Jr. if he's not. I would either go Graham in the 1st and try like he'll to get Jihaad Campbell in the 2nd. Or take Pearce Jr. in the 1st and Deone Walker in the 2nd. That's my dream scenarios right now.

I personally think they need a pass catcher starter, we are at odds over this, but guess what I agree with your wants for the top two picks.

I believe 3 paths-

8- Tmac

57- BPA at DL, edge, LB, SS

OR

8- Best DLmen

57- best pass cather left arroy/golden/4 other TEs that fell

OR

8- BPA(should be defense)

57- BPA(should be defense)

 

 

In all of them form 3rd round til the 7th, load up that defense but use either 4th/5th on a RB, then back to defense. 

2 picks on Offense(starter level pass catcher and RB0

7 picks on DT, NT, Edge, LB, Safety, CB(if you listen to Dan, I feel Michael Jackson is priced out of coming back).

See I'm just the opposite in that I think the first 3 picks should be defense because that's where the most talented players are. But go bpa the rest of the way because you can find offensive talent in round 4 thru 6. Take a kicker in the 7th if we still have it.

You just gave me the main reason I want to use, ONE, just one pick of the first 2 picks on a pass catcher. Form experts predictions- starting DL could/should be found into the 4th round. Panthers need starter WR and TE, 0.2% that can be filled by mid round pick. Get AJ green(loL) aka Tmac at 8th, then use 2nd, 3rd, and both 4ths on Defense with a focus on DL/edge. 

they have three 5th rounders, use one on RB and the other two on defense depth. 

 us fans and the team will win in the long run!!

 I believe he was the main #1 overall back then.

I just rewatched one of the drills in which coach makes you go right left, then run back.....his ankle movement was insane.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      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
