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

Inject this directly into my veins

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.

unless he sees 1 of them as a NT, it is crazy.  Brown, Robinson, and Graham would be enough to move on to other needs.

the apple of manys eye at including johnsnow, Deone Walker had a awful combine, but guess what??..... Im glad cause I still want him in the third( before he was getting 1st buzz). It was rather bad, but tape wise he looked NFL ready. 

plus NT is odd spot, its sooo hard for a rookie to be able to play that spot. I feel its even harder than rookie QB. NFL OGs are the smartest on the field and they punish rookie(not Carter or 99) nearly every game until you figure it out years later. 

I think the Panthers must sign a vet NT and draft one too given its a good year.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      In my view, the realistic expectation for this team to compete will start 2027.  At that time, I think we could be looking at the following (this is HIGHLY speculative):   QB:  You know, Bryce.  I am not a fan, but they don't ask me.  But there is reason for hope--and here it is.  Bryce will be entering his prime.  Since we are likely to pay him, there will be changes that I include throughout this exercise--I realistically speculate on what they are going to do with Bryce and then I realistically speculate on what means in terms of the cap and other positions. Bryce HAS IMPROVED.  The idea is that if you give him more weapons and protection, that will continue.  His career:   At this rate, if his growth continues, by 2027 we should expect nearly 30 TDs and about 12 Interceptions and a Rating of about 98.  His completion percentage should settle at 65-66% or so.  If that happens, you can win with it. The following stats demonstrate how the Panthers will be able to afford it (and re-sign Ickey) My guess is they will require about $60m per year. This is why rookies who can play are important.  It also helps us see the blueprint.  You may disagree, but this is the cruel realities of the salary cap. Robert Hunt:  Cut post June 1 and save $19m.  Who do you replace him with?  Ickey. Tershawn Wharton:  Cutting him saves nearly $15m.  We should all hope to see Aaron Hall (UDFA) make the roster and play well.  Regardless, this is a position we would likely have to address in the next draft. Trevin Moehrig:  Cutting Moehrig as the starting SS saves this team $16.5m.   Ransom will be on year 3 of a cheap rookie deal and should be more than ready to take the reins.  their styles are similar.  Furthermore, FS Wheatley (R, 4th round) will be starting. Taylor Moton:  So much depends on his knee, but I have an idea that he can play another 3 years.  extending him could save the team about $5m per year.  Cutting him outright would save the team about $21m. In the most drastic situation, we have to cut Moton and the other three players mentioned.   We would need (in all likelihood) a starting DT and RT.  It is possible that the DE would be addressed, but Wharton's production (so far) could be equaled by a rookie.  Look for a cut free agent and a 2027 draft pick here.  If you cut Moton, you save $21m, and that would be the only big hole to fill.  Having Ickey at RG gives you some depth at T, and Ickey could be the guy.  T could be pick in the 2027 draft (first round), fwiw.  It saves you $21m while costing you $5m, for example. We get younger, creating a core of Freeling, Hecht, and the RT first rounder in 2027) along with Ekownu (second contract in the $15m range, and Lewis, whose contract would be in the $16m range if not extended.)  The OL cuts (Hunt, Moton) would save $40m.  The OL would get younger and still solid with veterans at G.   By cutting Wharton (no brainer if his play stays the same) and Moehrig (good player--but we have Ransom on a rookie contract who would not be that much of a drop off--if any) in addition to Hunt and Moton, we would save over $70m in cap room. We would be able to give Bryce bag  and we would have enough to re-sign Ickey (if the knee is not too risky) to a Guard contract (probably at a discount, coming off that injury).  Furthermore, we could add a RT in the draft (or a RG if Ickey moves to RT) and that would be the only large hole to fill. Correct my logic if you see issues-- On defense, in addition to the aforementioned, Scott ($2m contract) is out, replaced by a 4th round rookie contract. CB Jackson's contract ($7.8m) expires and he is (possibly) replaced by a rookie contract.  At Edge, patrick Jones II's $10m contract expires and he is likely a reserve, and his role is absorbed by Phillips, Scourton, Princely, and possible an UDFA like Isaiah Smith or a 2027 draft pick.   These productive developmental players over the past 2 drafts will pay huge dividends.  On paper, I see the team getting much younger and possibly better while cutting nearly $100m and reallocating that money to get more production.

      If everything played out and that last thing happened, I probably just quit.
