Who are your favorite prospects in this upcoming draft?

Recommended Posts

If I had to pick a favorite from each position group, mine would be:

  • QB: Kyle McCord (Syracuse)
  • RB: Cam Skatteboo (Arizona State)
  • WR: Emeka Egbuka (Ohio State)
  • TE: Tyler Warren (Penn State)
  • OT: Will Campbell (LSU)
  • OG: Donovan Jackson (Ohio State)
  • OC: Seth McLaughlin (Ohio State)
  • EDGE: Donovan Ezeiruaku (Boston College)
  • DL: Derrick Harmon (Oregon)
  • LB: Jalon Walker (Georgia)
  • CB: Dorian Strong (Virginia Tech)
  • S: Malaki Starks (Georgia)

If I had to put together a top 5 for prospects I enjoyed scouting the most, they'd be (in no particular order): Donovan Ezeiruaku, Tyler Warren, Dorian Strong, Malaki Starks, and Jalon Walker.

If I hadn't watched Starks' 2023 + 2022 film as well, I'd probably swap him for Egbuka.

Who have y'all enjoyed scouting?

You forgot punter, long snapper, and kicker

Keeping me honest, I appreciate that... but I haven't scouted LS nor P so I'm taking the coward's way out and grouping them all as special teams!

  • ST: Andres Borregales, K, Miami

Borregales is also the only ST player I've scouted... was interested after he worked with Coach Bates at the Senior Bowl.

You've done a lot more than I have. At this point I just watch the college games and give the Panthers games a go before getting ticked off with them and changing the channel or doing something else. That's if I watch the Panthers at all.

But I do like Warren and think he's probably the only guy talked about in the top 10-15, I'd like to see the Panther draft. But that's been discussed before. I liked what I saw of Skatteboo in the season and wouldn't mind him being drafted by the Panthers in the 4th or later. As for the others, Shrugs GIF

@Icege I like your McLaughlin shout out.  He had a bad injury so may have a delay to start, but he's a legit NFL center.

I liked him at Bama and love his scheme versatility. He's quick enough to play in a zone scheme but also gets enough drive to work power. Really high on his ability to recognize blitzes and stunts (that latter one being a sore spot for Panthers' fans the last cpl of seasons T_T)

Oooh, I haven't checked out LeQuint Allen at all and I've still gotta watch Tyleik Williams. Might try and sneak in some of them in today when I hit this three hour stretch of meetings @ 1pm... 👀

Big fan of these 3! Tahj Brooks runs like a sledgehammer, Zy Alexander is yet another in a long line of LSU DBs, and Malachi Moore's College Gameday story made me an even bigger fan.

I'm being a bit delinquent today during Teams calls today too haha.    

Noticed Allen watching McCord.  He's nice.  Strong pass catcher who could come in and not really take away from Chuba.  But also fill in if needed.  

-a quick edit/add-

For Tyleik, I already like him and then heard there's a lot of quiet buzz and he's been interviewing super well (forgot where but it was yesterday) Seems like a guy teams don't want to let out they are coveting.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
