People keep propping up school tape like it's amazing when projecting the play to the NFL. This is what a school freak looks that dominates school players and will be a 100% stud in the NFL.

It's cool that these guys played well in school but show me 1 guy in this draft who is this talented? That is what dominance looks like. We got a shot at some solid football players but damn the hype for these guys needs to go to the level it really is and not where some of yall want it to be.

I want a WR actually willing to do agility drills. I want to draft a receiver that is actually fast at stopping and starting. We've spent 15 years drafting big guys that run fast in a straight line and/or jump real high. Give me a guy that can get open in a phone booth over a guy that needs a runway.

Yep, exactly.  In the NFL these days you need quick shifty receivers that get open running their routes.  Separation is key.  We keep drafting wr's like it's 1999 and we are just going to throw deep balls in to double coverage, when the modern NFL defense is a shell that focuses on stopping over the top passes.  We literally keep trying to build to what the rest of the NFL has already figured out and learned exactly how to stop.  The same with chasing the seahawks and legion of boom defense always.

Per Daniel Jeremiah, he hasn’t come across anyone that has him top 10.  Mentioned some teams have him below 20th overall. Highest in the 10-13 range. 

 

Kinda puzzling to me because of how weak the top of the class is.  If he's Drake London, that's gotta be a pretty good pick out of this class right?  London was selected 8 overall and PFF had him ranked as the 7th best receiver last year.

If you line him up versus his common comparisons - Drake London is a bit better after the catch and Michael Pittman a bit better at out powering DBs for jump balls. You take those away and it’s a solid guy, but unsure if teams see enough that helps them really elevate their offenses.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      By Carolina Cajun · Posted

      Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.

      I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
