Round 1, No. 8 Mason Graham, DT, Michigan The Panthers have been open about wanting to improve the defensive line. Graham would be a big piece in helping Dave Canales and Ejiro Evero do so. The question is whether he’ll make it to 8. But there’s a chance Graham slips a bit after weighing in at 296 pounds (about 20 lighter than some expected), with 32-inch arms that scouts consider short-ish. Georgia linebacker Jalon Walker, who’s been a popular pick for the Panthers at 8 and will reportedly miss his pro day with a quad strain, also came in on the small side in his combine measurements. With the Panthers’ D-line emphasis, it could be another Georgia defender who’s the pick if Graham is off the board — edge rusher Mykel Williams.

Round 2, No. 58 Andrew Mukuba, S, Texas With the Texans wanting to move up for a wide receiver in Pro Football Network’s draft simulator, we were happy to slide back one spot and give up a seventh-round pick in exchange for another fourth-round selection. We then took Mukuba for the second mock in a row, albeit a round earlier than in February. But Mukuba’s stock figures to rise after a fast 40 (4.45 seconds) at the combine. Plus, with the Panthers replacing almost their entire safety room, this is a position that will require the free agency/draft double dip. Mukuba lacks ideal size (5-11, 186), but he makes up for it with a knack for big plays in big moments. He had 11 tackles in the SEC Championship Game against Georgia, then sealed Texas’ quarterfinal win vs. Arizona State with an interception.

Round 3, No. 74 Jaylin Noel, WR, Iowa State

Round 4, No. 110 Shemar Turner, DT, TexasA&M

Round 4, No. 113 Terrance Ferguson, TE, Oregon

Round 4, No. 127 (from Houston) Oluwafemi Oladejo, edge, UCLA

Round 5, No. 141 Jacob Parrish, CB, Kansas State

Round 5, No. 147 Raheim Sanders, RB, South Carolina

Round 5, No. 164 Andres Borregales, K, Miami

Don't love it, don't hate it. Pretty solid.

Edge is not getting better---and no OT was taken--so I assume those were addressed in free agency.

Id rather see an edge go earlier and a RT/swing T instead of another DT, or a mediocre WR.  However, you can't fill all our needs in 1 draft.

If we use draft pick on a kicker, could we possibly keep them on the roster this time?  (I know it’s a different circumstance this time around, but still…)

Different coach and GM

Is ok. I don’t know why you’d draft two 5T when you have Brown. Least important position on the D as well. It’s also the deepest position(along with RB) in this draft. The glaring hole…we had nobodies off the street playing linebacker last year. Would love something there. Oladejo and then David Walker are my favorite edge guys after the first group.

No, ultimately we are a few offseasons away, no matter how it shakes out.

I would like to see an Edge/DE, TE, and RB taken at the bare minimum because of the depth and overall quality at those positions.

      Panthers coverage efficiency

      By NAS · Posted

      Call me crazy but if you’re in the bottom 7 in efficiency using Zone 84% of the time why not try something else? You paid Jaycee top 5 CB money use him more effectively. Zone is only efficient if you can generate a good pass rush to force a QB into mistakes otherwise you will get picked apart

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.
