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 TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      https://nfltraderumors.co/2026-nfl-draft-grades-for-all-32-teams/      Grade: B+ Best Pick: Sam Hecht Biggest Reach (consensus rank): Jackson Kuwatch (NR) It's easy to love what Carolina did. The Panthers traded four times but ended the draft with the same number of selections that they started with and in approximately the same ranges. They did not take a player ahead of the consensus until Kuwatch at No. 227, and it's easy to see how he fell through the cracks playing at Miami of Ohio. He's a high-end athlete, though, and has a chance to develop, which is a fine profile for a seventh-rounder. Freeling and Brazzell also checked the high-end athleticism upside boxes for the Panthers. Carolina let the board come to them in the first round and could have a long-term solution at left tackle, which is a hard position to fill. Brazzell slid because of some maturity concerns as well as the difficulty in projecting receivers from Tennessee's Mickey Mouse offense. At 6-4, 200 pounds and 4.37 in the 40, though, the upside is undeniable. On top of that, the landed three starters on Day 3. Normally that's a high and unrealistic bar, but Hecht and Wheatley were both firmly inside the top 100 on the consensus board and have paths to win starting competitions. Lee fits the scheme well and has some interesting traits as an outside corner. What stopped me from a full-out A grade is not loving the Hunter pick, though he does fill a need to replace DT A'Shawn Robinson. There were prospects at other needs positions I would have been more jazzed about. The Brazzell pick is also an interesting risk for a team that's still in building mode, even coming off an NFC South title. Still, I'm nitpicking
