For all the people crying about the WR choice, do keep in mind that these DE/EDGE guys seem to be dropping. So we may end up being able to grab a starting caliber guy anyway. 

and maybe they aren't as good as their hype. It sure looks like the nfl sees it that way or at least that there isnt so much difference between the top 10

You don't like taking the drafts #1 WR?  Sigh

I don’t like not fast WRs, that aren’t really good route runners….for an O in desperate need of YAC and speed.   We just spent a first on XL to develop. 

not saying anything new or reactionary.  Same thought posted earlier today multiple times

He’ll get separation by being twice the size of the DB and boxing them out for the ball.

Plenty of analysts had him over both. I don't know where some of y'all have been. Don't get lost in the lying season. Tet was regarded by many as the top receiver in this draft. 

I'm going off plenty of rankings plus my own. I had rated in the 30's overall in this draft but thought he'd get picked middle of the first. I had Golden and Hunter above him by quite a lot. 

Defense was a much bigger need and I had Walker rated 3rd/4th overall in this draft, so did ESPN and a bunch of others.

 

Problem with tet is you can take him out of the game by pressing him and being physical at the Los by putting hands on him with a solid punch by the DB. Can't be an X in the NFL and get taken out by press coverage and DB's being physical.

I am not sure I have ever seen a prospect as overrated as Warren by our fanbase. 

Even worse, some douche on this forum was saying we would be an idiot not to draft him and guaranteed he would go top 10 🤦‍♂️ The dude also pooed every post I said that I rated him as late 1st round talent 

Also not surprised loveland went before him

I think it is largely a lot of solid, starting caliber players but not much in the way of elite players. But, given depth of this class, I do think you will see some Pro Bowl/All Pro caliber guys. Probably at least 2, IMO. The issue will be figuring out which guy it is.

      Dan had a great draft

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      If there's a pattern I'm definitely picking up from Dan and company is a philosophy of making trades where we try not to sacrifice the number of draft picks we have by day's end. In other words, we're not giving up three picks for one, or giving up a future pick to make a pick today. And even if we give up something at the start, we make trades later to make up for that initial loss. Here's how it stacked up for 2026: How we started: 19, 51, 83, 119, 158, 159, 200 How we ended: 19, 49, 83, 129, 144, 151, 227 (no future picks sacrificed) Ultimately, we moved up two spots in the second to ensure we got someone we coveted, gave up a few spots for our fourth round pick, but then had better picks in the 5th (and got really good value out of them), and had a worse 7th rounder which isn't that big of a loss anyways.  At this point, we can question who they draft, but they're pretty good maneuvering across the draft board.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By 45catfan · Posted

      I just saw the funniest thing...or very disappointing, depending how you handle misery. A guy on YouTube did a 2027 'way too early' mock draft.  If I told you the simulator has the Panthers selecting in the top 10 , what would you say?  If I told you it was pick #8 and only two QBs were taken in the top 7, what would you say?  If I told you this dude had us taking a defensive player, what would you say?

      A look at the team after the draft and udfa signings...

      It is due diligence at that point. Irresponsible not to take him.  Crossing my fingers on this one, he has everything you look for except experience.
