Round 1 - Panthers Select Tetairoa McMillan at Pick 8


Recommended Posts

I have no concerns about Tet's skills, and the Huddle would have said all these same things about drafting Mike Evans. My only concern is what we're going to do about our historically bad defense. Signing a couple DTs doesn't fix it.

I think this is a vote of no confidence in XL. 

Tet has something that XL seemed to struggle with, and in fact most of our receivers room struggled with (besides Coker) and that's SURE HANDS. McMillan is big and catches like it's his nature. I think he'll be a great weapon for Bryce.

the plus I see is Bryce being the VET amonst young rookies.  He gets to be the leader.  VET WR's will try to dictate what they want, when they want it.  Good for Bryce to grow this way instead of trying to fulfill VET WR demands.  It's put up or shut up time for Bryce.

Lets not forget Canales and Idzik both coached WR. perhaps they already see how to maximize and have a plan. I mean he DID know what he was doing with Bryce! 🤷🏿

And xl?

Okay, but we didn't, we loved Evans and prayed for him to fall to us until it was apparent it wouldn't happen.

Also, this forum has been way better at rating draft prospects than the front office since Tepper has been at the helm.

Tyleik Williams would be nice.

Ez would be good at edge.

Remember when people here would talk about how little separation our WRs get? LoL I guess.

I think it's hilarious. Also they have learned nothing so expect someone next who won even play next year. Which edge is the most injury prone?

    • If he really wants to be here, that can happen.  It's totally up to him.  Yes, he'll have to take a hometown discount to do it.  He'll have to show that the last two seasons were outliers and he hasn't become an injury risk. It will come down to money and how much of it he wants.  If he wants to be paid at the upper end of the scale, it won't and can't happen here.  When healthy, he deserves that kind of pay and if he wants it someone else will pay it. It can totally happen.  And it's totally in his court.  
    • He was on the "sideline" during OTA or mini camp, Im sure there was some Twitter/X post but news just moves so fast now.  He's not getting the press as TMac or even Horn, but he is making plays. That's the other deal, Im a big fan of his!  Just in order to get great value you need to give value in return. I said he would have been a 3rd rounder in 2025 draft, he just had bad luck with injuries hurting his stock and coming out in a deep WR class.  
    • I've always said that PFF is a tool. If you don't know how to use it, or don't want to know how to use it, then it's useless. But some people actually do know how to use it---which is why it still exists and is used by all 32 NFL teams---and part of this is putting it all within context----seeing the bigger picture. If you don't understand that not all players, develop at the same rate, have different levels of talent, have injuries that affect their play, and face different circumstances in regards to the opposition and coaching, for example, then I don't know what to tell you. Coaches set expectations based upon a variety of things, not only last year's stat sheet, which may have been brought about by dynamics that you, as a fan, may or may not understand. And even if you have some understanding of them, as a fan, you still will never have the clarity that they do---the concerns or the context that they do. As a fan, you should even be putting your lack of understanding their context, into context (and stop trying to act like you know something to be true based upon a bad season at the end of the day).
