Panthers reportedly 'intrigued' by Arizona WR Tetairoa McMillan, per Joe Person

McMillan has great size (6-4, 219) and an uncanny ability to high-point the ball. Without blazing speed, there are concerns about his ability to separate. Some in Carolina’s organization are intrigued.

Doesn't bode well for their confidence in Leggette IMO. Very similar profile.

Seems this is accurate, but doesn't include contracts for david moore and nick scott.

Scott and Moore made about $1.3M and 1.1M respectively on last year's 1-year deals.  I doubt they are looking to make less.  So assuming their deals are roughly the same we are going to be nearly $1.5M over the cap when accounting for the rookie pool.  With us looking to sign another starting caliber safety,  some maneuvering needs to occur. Blackmon stayed in Indy last year on a 1-year deal for $3.7M.  He's looking for a bump, obviously. He's not getting Moehrig type of money.  He'll be S2, not S1 being paid so accordingly, therefore I'd say $5-$7M per season.

That said, we need to clear up somewhere along the lines of $5M-$8M.  Remember, have to factor in the rookie pool.

Very little reason to have too much confidence in Legette, IMO. He cares more about catching rodents than he does catching footballs. Another player who will probably make a fortune as a podcast host/personality after they flunk out of the league.

Quote

Via Albert Breer of SI.com, Cousins hopes “to avoid the situation he found himself in last April when he was blindsided by Atlanta’s decision to take Michael Penix Jr. with the eighth pick.” As a result, Cousins isn’t willing to take any team at their word. Instead, he wants to see what happens during the draft before deciding whether to waive the clause that prevents the Falcons’ from trading him without his permission.

Once upon a time, people said that about Mingo and Leggette. Let's hope they learned their lesson. I think these writers just look at the mocks and then write a story that Carolina is interested in _______ and hope the mocks add some small amount of credibility. Of course the Panthers have a reputation of showing their cards so who knows. I hope they aren't giving anything away this year.

Wilson signs for a year with the Giants.

This has potential Panthers implications if the Giants opt to not take a QB and things break a certain way for us. Could weaken or strengthen our position to trade down.

Also could have a big impact on the Aaron Rodgers situation.

The giants aren't going qb then. Gonna wait a year and go for  Archie. I bet they tried to trade back to get ammunition  for next year.

I wouldn't say that completely eliminates them from going QB. They are way less invested than the Falcons were.

I don't think they are aiming for Arch because the current regime won't be around for it.

You raise a valid point. I see Russell giving them a chance vs going with a qb. I've seen they are high on Dart too. Possible 2nd round or trade up option at the back of 1.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
