Tyler Warren will only work out for a select number of teams, Panthers are currently not interested.

"Warren is a bit of an acquired taste, and not everyone has him as the top tight end in the draft. He’s the No. 2 player at the position on my board after Colston Loveland. One team told me Friday that Warren is the fourth player at tight end on their board."

This is what I keep telling the Warren stans. He isn't the generational talent they believe he is.

I honestly think Mason Taylor is the sleeper TE. He could end up as the best of the class.

But they run him in the wild cat!!!!!! Seriously, you hope he becomes TJ Hockenson, which is perfectly fine, but not at 8 for a team that doesn't stress the TE position.

Princely is supposed to go off the board between about 35 and 50, which suggests that the Panthers could move up for him--especially if they move back in round 1.

I REALLY like this edge for the Panthers.  Not sold on Walker (love the kid), Stewart (big ole bowl of NOPE), Williams (too much unknown about him, but he is a stud)...

The film shows a pass rusher who operates best with his hand in the dirt in wide alignments where he can maximize his length and burst. His third-down impact jumps off the screen – the way he embarrassed Georgia's right tackle with a lightning-quick first step before countering inside showcases exactly what he brings to an NFL front. Moving him around the formation unlocks his versatility - he's got the juice to threaten the edge and enough savvy to loop inside on stunts, creating constant confusion for protection schemes.

When studying his season-long progression at Ole Miss, his technical growth under position coach Randall Joyner stands out. Early in the year, he was winning primarily on pure athleticism. By November, he was setting up tackles with deliberate rush plans, shown perfectly in that three-game stretch where he racked up six sacks using three different signature moves. The consistency in high-leverage situations - third downs, two-minute drills, red zone - demonstrates a rusher ready to contribute in crucial passing situations from day one.

After breaking down over 500 snaps, Umanmielen's blend of physical skills and technical refinement suggests a player whose development is still on a sharp upward trajectory. His dominance against SEC competition wasn't just about winning with athleticism - it was his ability to string together multiple rush moves and counter effectively when his initial plan failed. In the right system that lets him pin his ears back and hunt quarterbacks from wide alignments, he has the tools to become one of the premier pass rushers in this class. 

This suggests he is a learner and will work to get better.  Now, the other teams that like him according to this tweet --Atlanta (picking 46th in round 2), Tampa Bay (picking 53rd in round 2), and Green Bay (picking 54th in round 2) will pick before the Panthers in Round 2.  If you see Carolina trading up in in round 2 to around 43-44-45, it will cost them both 4th rounders (estimate). However, if they have a S, Edge, and WR on days 1 and 2, the fourth rounders would be worth it.

    • Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?
    • Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade. 
    • Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
