My personal best available players for R2 for the Panthers: 

1. Mike Green 2. Will Johnson 3. Donavan Ezeraku  4. Nick Emanwori 5. JT Tuimoloau  6. Carson Swessinger  5. Xavier Watts 6. Nick Scourton  7. Landon Jackson 

Weirdly all of the R2 WR prospects I previously had will be there as well. I don't think they'll double dip at WR, but if they did. Jaylin Noel and Luther Burden have a very different skillset vs Tet or anyone else on our roster. 
 

If I were the Panthers personally, I'd try to trade anything that isn't a 1st round pick to move up to get Green or Ezeraku. 

Allegations aren't proven. Anyone can be accused. 

 

I want Green so bad, someone is going to get the best pass rusher in the draft for a steal.

When you get accused by multiple people in multiple locations... oof. Probably some towering flames behind all that smoke.

I'm wondering if Deion is a huge part of the problem. You're not just drafting Shadeur, you're drafting Prime Time as well and I can't imagine the thought of having to put up with his constant input is going to be appealing or appreciated, especially at the Giants where the coach and GM jobs are on the line. If those guys are out at the end of the year, you can bet Deion would be after the HC job and his son would make that push as well.

It's definitely not helping, that's for sure.

Doubtful as Morgan wasn't even drafted until he was already in prison 🙄 

Murder totally the same as "anonymous reports" the man has been charged with no chrimes.

He was drafted like the next year. He remembers Rae Carruth sir. Everybody in the Carolinas for the next 10 years remembers him.

I saw another Huddler trying to call people out for being high on Emmanwori, saying they did not think he was worth the pick at 8.  This person claimed that the people saying this were uninformed and not aware of talent evaluation.  That is very stupid.  Here is why:

Where you are drafted does not indicate how well you will play.  Emmanwori was often compared to Kam Chancellor, a player anyone would gladly take in the first half of round 1.  He was drafted in the fifth round.  So were the people who thought Kam Chancellor should have been a first rounder wrong about him because he was not drafted until the fifth round?  Did you know that the Chargers, when  trying to replace Rodney Harrison, drafted Sammy Davis and Terrence Kiel.  The Steelers later drafted Troy Polamalu.  Were Davis and Kiel better specimens because they were drafted earlier?  Bottom line, nobody knows, and where there were drafted proves very little.  Personally, I endorsed trading back for Emmanwori, but it does not mean that he is a lesser player than someone picked at 7.  It means his fit was later.  Until they play, you don't know, so making comments about others' opinions based on draft spots does not really prove your understanding of personnel any less than someone miscalculating when a player will be a good fit and get selected.

He might be the best pass rusher on the prison yard flag football team before his rookie contract is set to expire.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
