I've been really warming up to Allen here of late. I'm usually not a big fan of off the ball LBs in the 1st but if we could get another impact LB who doubles as the QB of the defense... I mean that sounds very tempting.

 

My only gripe with Allen is I just don’t think he will be BPA #19. If Dan and co. do select him there I wouldn’t hate it but I will question if someone of Allen’s profile can be found in day 2.

As a pure player, honestly I agree. But doubling as that QB of the defense on the field might push him over the top and make it worth it over say a Hill or Golday in the 2nd, especially if we don't think one of those guys will he there at #51 which I think is very possible.

A friend of mine who follows SEC football says he thinks Allen was a just a good LB on a great defense but as you said if his interview process goes well and he is found to have the intangibles you mentioned then you get him day 1.

If his on the field QBing of the defense helped it be a great defense, sign me up. We'd all love another Luke but I'd settle for a lesser version. And if this kid has that type of football mind, what better mentor could you ask for than Luke Kuechly. Even if he's not that type of impact after the snap I'd just love to have that defensive QB again, especially one being mentored by Luke.

WHAT IM HEARING AT THE COMBINE - DAY 2:

* Ty Simpson is the runaway QB2, and might go as high as the mid-first round.
* A second school of thought has emerged: Caleb Downs could be

Ty Simpson's stock rising would greatly benefit the #Panthers

1) If he goes ahead of Carolina, a player they want has a better chance of falling to them

2) Teams might be interested in trading for their 19th overall pick

Caleb downs could be what?

 

And someone craving Simpson and him on the board at 19 is the exact scenario I have been praying for.  Get another 2nd and a first for next year.

The Simpson hype is just something I can't wrap my head around. I can't see drafting a guy in the 1st whose absolute ceiling looks to be Kirk Cousins.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tbe · Posted

      Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
