I am thinking they flip where the run D is closer to 23 and the pass D closer to last years 32. I just don't see the pass rush being impressive, especially if they are getting rid of Clowney. Thankfully they were able to keep Jackson but if horn goes down again it could get comical.

The offense is betting on Moton's knee holding up and the defense is hoping their $100m CB can play more than half the games.  He has missed 29 games.

I trust Dan to be aggressive next off season to address our safety/CB issues next year. Dan has been aggressive addressing each position one off season at a time. Year 1 was o line, year 2 was defensive front. 

I mean we have Horn as CB1 with a lot of cap space allocated to him. Jackson seems fine as CB2 and Chau looked good at NB. We 100% need some depth and a FS but nothing like the OL/DL overhaul they did these past 2 years. Moehrig and Horn are the their expensive secondary pieces going forward.

Justin Simmons please. He's far better than the other options being discussed in here. He's more expensive but if we were supposedly trying to trade for Tee Higgens, then we can afford a better FS than Marcus Williams.

the ONLY issue I have the Morgan's draft is that they went RB Etienne at 111 and then Safety (Strong Safety) Ransom at 122. Having signed Moehrig, they should have drafted Bowman (who was picked at 118) at 111 and hoped for Etienne at 122.

Christensen re-signing eases some of my concerns about Moton in the short-term. Yeah, he's not Moton but it's not like we're going to have to trot Byron Bell out there if he can't make it.

When asked about Ransom Morgan was clear to describe his role and a strong safety but was quick to add that he can play deep as well.    Said the same thing about Moerhig.  I think we are going to start both and their roles will be interchangeable.  I think either could play up and either could stay back.  I think both could play up and both could play deep.  Think of this--if the C identifies the mike LB, the QB has to be aware of the free safety.  What if they switch?

Does it matter if neither can cover? LOL

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
