LAST MINUTE: ESPN's Matt Miller's final cock draft

[TheSpecialJuan]

Carolina Panthers

Miller's pick prediction: Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon

Tight end and safety were the two positions that came up most when polling league sources about the Panthers. This spot is seen as Thieneman's potential floor but also serves as a popular landing spot for the speedy Sadiq. Though Carolina keeps its workouts quiet, especially when it comes to Round 1 targets, Sadiq fits what it lacks at tight end. One source within the organization wouldn't rule out wide receiver but noted that the Panthers probably wouldn't reach for Denzel Boston (Washington) or KC Concepcion (Texas A&M).

He's not even the best TE in this draft. Why would they listen to a so called draft expert that changes his top 50 prospects every week. Someone wants the Panthers to take this bum because he is going day 2 if they don't. This is starting to piss me off.

I just don't understand how lazy these guys are. It's easy just to follow what some guy picked early on and they keep it up. We have not even met with him. I don't have anything against Sadiq, but we have several other immediate needs. I know it's not sexy pick but OL and DL should be in play.

Somebody needs the Panthers to draft Sadiq at 19 for their Polymarket bet.

Thank god this settles tomorrow. It's not going to be Sadiq or Concepcion.

They are talking about South Carolina GameCOCK players being drafted I guess.

I sure hope they don’t take either one of KC or Sadiq. And I am not against a WR just not anyone without 100% great hands, at least in the first. I din’t think either one of those guys fits. 

But Bryce can’t elevate anyone, and they know it, so they think they have go top shelf.

I could be wrong, but they don't seem like Morgan 1st round guys to me.

So you think Sadiq and KC are top shelf?
