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.

    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "  
    • this one is gold:     Bryce has a cult inside the Panthers fanbase that has truly developed some NPC hivemind. I'll never understand how he's captured the true essence of the casual fan like that.    
    • "everybody has to earn it, heading in the right direction, feel great about him, get it done at the right time"     Mother fuger
