I think Dan is hoping a team gives him an offer for #8. It feels like (as Mike Kaye just mentioned) there isn't "a guy" they really like at this spot, the top 5 blue chip players will be gone by the time we pick. 

I just a Niner headline that they're looking to trade up for (speculated) Armand Membou. So if we trade back to them, 11 isn't that bad if we can get a 3rd this year  and a 2nd next year.

I do this so I can see it--but it is possible that we address every position group on the defense in this draft--:  

OLB Edge:  Clowney, Wonnum, Jones, DRAFT PICK.

ILBs:  Jewell, Rozeboom, Wallace  DRAFT PICK

DE:  Derrick Brown, Robinson, Wharton,  DRAFT PICK

DT:  Brown III, Crumedy, Tuttle DAY DRAFT PICK

CB: Horn, Jackson (he he), Smith-Wade (nickel)  DRAFT PICK

S: Moehrig, Richardson, Scott, DRAFT PICK

 

 

This plus

RB(simply deep large pool)

TE('''' and need/want)

WR(need speed or fear)

 

that's Brandt's&Dan's 9 draft picks in a dream deal.

I can see them bypassing CB/NB in favor of two edges. 2026 needs starterS, this is the perfect draft. Chau Smith-Wade should be ready for NB duties, they waived vet troy hill for him. 

Then put a bow on this class with another aggessive UDFA group. Be nice to land another Coker, rayum, and Richardson type of talents. Use teppers money and give out some 100,000 guarantees ....

I feel there is 15 open spots for the 53. 9 draft picks, 3 UDFAs, and 3 surprises/claims/2024 PSers/_____

 

Then you have your 2025 Carolina panthers!!!!

I would not expect a future starter from every pick in this draft. Most of those will be day 3 picks.

Most fans are just upset because they think XL made bryce look bad. Thats what it comes down too. If that was any other qb out there throwing balls and getting dropped by XL the energy wouldn't be as bad. XL performed pretty well for a guy picked at the bottom of the first round or second if there was no trade up. There should be no reason for fans writing him off after one year. Everybody knew the guy was a work in progress coming in so the anger is really about something else. If you read between the lines that what it is

Has nothing to do with Bryce for me.  I didn't like him before the draft.  He was supposed to be our #1 wr and was forced the ball and had what, 400 yards?  It would be different if he wasn't a 5 year college guy.  He's a panther either way and hopefully he improves.

It would work.  the question is, do we need an edge if we draft Walker? 

Next season?  I don't think so.  He will be an edge mostly when it matters and they will platoon the others.  Now with edge being so deep if there is one in the 2nd or 3rd that they like, take them without hesitation.  Wonnum and Clowney probably aren't answers after this season.

I mean, most receivers don't necessarily break out their rookie season. It wasn't a good year, including injuries, and it may have dampened excitement, but didn't snuff it completely out, at least probably for most people.

I think he would be the panthers version of Luvu.  Just a bit more athletic and explosive.  True lb on run downs, Edge on passing downs.

Luvu drove me crazy sometimes with the over-pursuing. Walker's pursuit and tackling is truer. He's an exponentially better pass rusher as well. Walker ain't no joke out there. Admittedly I'm a Dawg, but Walker is a lot closer to Micah than Luvu. Bank it!

That's not gonna go do it. They're going to have to give us that pick 43. 

Honestly, I think that we'll do better than that when someone wants to move in front of New Orleans for Sanders or Dart.

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
