Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

[Soul Rebel]

Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate.

I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19.

I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.

I didn’t expect to see Freeling at 19. My plan was move back, take one of the guys that was still there and use the proceeds towards trading up in round two for Rodriguez. 
 

Freeling sitting there blew that all up. I knew there would be no trading up after that. Because don’t mess around, take the gift. 
 

And the ILB that I wanted in the second, over DL, that was me wanting something shiny. I think Hunter probably was the more responsible pick just like Freeling was.

Tremble was a 3rd, day 2, just fyi.

I should've referenced our current HC and, by extension, GM. I have been explicitly skeptical of Canales and his TE usage early during his first regular season in Charlotte. I will also note that Morgan wasn't really in Charlotte during Greg Olsen's career either.
