Methodtoll's Guys to Watch Out For

Quarterbacks

Pat White, West Virginia : Will he we a QB or a WR? White told the NFL Network that he does not want to work out with the receivers yet remain with the QBs so we'll see.

Josh Freeman, Kansas State: Will he be first round talent? Or we'll he fall to the second? He has the arm strength and the mobility but does he have the accuracy?

Graham Harrell, Texas Tech: The biggest issue facing Harrell is his arm strength. He has had a lot of time between the Senior Bowl and today to work on it so it will be interesting to see how much improvement he has made.

John Parker Wilson, Alabama: Not a lot of talk about this guy out of Alabama but he is on my sleeper list. He is a game manager and IF the Panthers were to select a QB somewhere in this draft (once again, it will all depend on what we do with Peppers) then Wilson wouldn't be a bad guy to compete with Moore.

Runningbacks

Rashad Jennings, Liberty- I'll admit that I haven't paid any attention to the runningbacks this season but I re-watched the Senior Bowl one guy that stood out to me was Rashad Jennings. I know the Panthers might not need another RB since we already have a talented tandem but it wouldn't hurt to look for a third down guy since it looks to be that Goings is done in Carolina. Jennings gave an excellent performance.

Kory Sheets, Purdue : Another guy that kind of impressed me at the Senior Bowl was Kory Sheets. Ran very well, found the holes good and could be a good guy on third downs.

Chris Ogbonnaya, Texas: A FB/HB hybrid from Texas, Ogbonnaya was a guy that really impressed me during his tenue at Texas, especially against a powerhouse like Oklahoma. Look at him as a younger, more athletic version of Goings.

Next up Wide Receivers.

Wide Receivers

Kenny Britt- Rutgers: Referring back to the Senior Bowl, Britt gave an outstanding performance. Him and Wallace were probably the best receivers at the Senior Bowl. We'll see what he can do today at the Combine. Big guy as well.

Juaquin Iglesias: Was a talented receiver for Oklahoma and could be a good fit for any team.

Mohamed Massaqoui Now this is one guy that I know about well! Talented receiver that was overshadowed by freshman A.J. Green. Would really be a good fit for the slot and also can help out on STs.

Other WRs to Watch For:

Jarrett Dilliard, Rice

Aaron kelly. Clemson

Brandon Tate and Brooks Foster, N. Carolina

Mike Wallace, Ole Miss

    • I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks. 
    • They both outstanding players and both had monster games against Jets.  We gonna need it again this week with the bills.  Go Panthers!!!!
    • Yeah okay fair enough.  Maybe the point is if you have a better system and players you can dumpster dive for a RB and if you don’t you have to shop top shelf. I dunno.    I would put my assets into the best OL I could get and let them make UDFA like Rico look like stars. As opposed to putting CMC behind a makeshift OL. And right now I don’t even remember who was on the OL when we took him, just sayin.
