Yeah he allegedly didn’t take the Washington job because he wanted to work with San Howell and didn’t think they should draft Jayden Daniels. 

Too bad for him he turned down Seattle just before they traded for Sam Howell.

Though this reaks of some Tar Heel homer folklore.

Egbuka is a Buc unfortunately.  I think he is going to be a stud at this level.

Ben Johnson turned down a chance to coach Jaden Daniels as well as Drake Maye also.  He saw Chicago has a pretty loaded roster to take over.  I wouldn't crown him a great HC yet either.  Plenty of great OCs struggle as HCs plus he has a tough division in the NFCN. 

I like Ekbugka probably will be eventually, dont know about this year with the Bucs new Offensive Cordinator Grizzard lol (he was a year behind me in high school) needless to say I seriously question them calling him an offensive wizard lol.

I can’t name our offensive coordinator.  I am getting older and the mind is slipping but I seriously can’t 

Someone named BRad Idzik. Sounds like a guy who should work in the media room, and effectively does so with Canales running the offense, I guess.

I like Canales and I'd like to keep him after Bryce. 

I still want Sanders. Dude is sitting there in the 4th and 5th round and we say NOPE, WE HAVE BRYCCCEEEE YOUNGGGGG.

And then we draft a receiver when you have Tyler Warren sitting right there staring you in the face. A guy who can do most of what Tet can do, and play tight end.

I'd say Canalas is the true OC and Idzik is just a long for the ride. 

I mean how can you be the OC and not call GameDay plays form the game plan??

No shame other teams do the same..

Good Lord, he is a pretty terrible judge of QB if that was true. I am skeptical.

Well, his iron was hot for a while and with the weapons he had in Detroit, it wasn't likely to fall off anytime soon.

He did the right thing, several offseasons of interviews/interest and chose the right situation.

That's where a lot of these guys fail. Thinking they can go to a poorly run franchise or a franchise in a deep hole and then be able to dig out of it.

It was reported by a commanders insider shortly before the NFC championship this year…

Ben Johnson wanted nothing to do with us, and Adam Peters wanted nothing to do with us (we couldn't even secure a interview with him for our vacant GM spot lmao). Actually football gurus want nothing to do with Tepper? I see a trend here. 

Pretty sure we interviewed Peters for the GM job when Rhule was here (they were old acquaintances). As I recall though, he noped out of the second round.

Always figured he balked at the idea of being second in command.

Peters did, they just be talking, also Ben Johnson back out of the interview with the Commanders while they were on the way to the fuging interview. it was never just about the Panthers he is just a dick

      Draft picks are better for cap management and production always outperforms athleticism over time.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Crixtala · Posted

      all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
