Alright, here’s my last mock draft. It will also include my prediction for next year’s first round pick. Enjoy!

1st Round

Morris Claiborne

College: LSU

Position: Corner

Height: 5’11”

Weight: 188

The best corner prospect may indeed fall right into our hands at the 9th overall pick. Claiborne has the skills to come in and start right from camp, which is probably not too difficult a task here in Carolina. (No offense Munnerlyn aka the Capt.) Morris improved on his game this past collegiate season, and he looks to further improve as he steps into the big leagues.

2nd Round

Harrison Smith

College: Notre Dame

Position: Safety

Height: 6’2”

Weight: 213

I wasn’t too high on Harrison at first, but through the following weeks, he began to grow on me. I’ve been looking at his stats, highlights, and combine to come to the conclusion he will be a great pro safety. He has the strength to mess RBs up at the line of scrimmage, yet has the overall speed to cover down the field. He is overall, a true safety. I would plug him in as our SS, and move Godfrey back to FS. (Godfrey is not really a great run support type safety) Hehe, I guess some would say he could be our version of John Lynch, but I don’t want to make such a statement. It’s really lazy on the eyes because we wouldn’t make that statement if Harrison was black. So what famous black safety could we liken him to? Is Ronnie Lott too extreme?

Can't fathom either Crick or Quick falling that far, but I'd love that draft.

Try saying Crick/Quick five times fast! :D

Yeah, overall I guess I do have a couple of guys falling, especially Claiborne, yet it could happen. Some have said Jeff Fueller was thinking about becoming a tight end, and I thought that was pretty interesting. If he goes undrafted, bringing him in as a tight end would be something. All in all, I can't wait to see who the Panthers pick up.

      Lance Zierlein's Position Rankings 2026 Draft

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      That makes me wonder, how many starting tackles in the NFL and/or elite tackles have short arms? I feel like there’s probably lots of tackles that end up being drafted in later rounds because they had short arms or didn’t have the physical tools.     also why not draft a tackle in the later rounds that we could move to guard or center if they fail, instead of drafting a center? If we draft a center we know they aren’t going to play tackle but if you draft a tackle they could end up playing any of the 3 positions, look at BC for example. It feels like it’s a better decision to draft a tackle in later rounds than a center.

      Damn back to 10th. I only caught the last 5 minutes but some of those 3's were horrible lol. In that close of game you can't be launching those many hail mary's when you could be chipping away from the foul line. I guess no one wanted to get in the paint and didn't trust the refs to give them the calls maybe? Gonna watch the highlights to get a better idea of the flow of the game

      I agree.  The Big 12 is a good conference, and he is the swinging dick in that conference.  If Bill Self retires, that sets Kansas back a bit, and Arizona moves even further ahead as the best team in that conference.  Arizona can crush west coast recruiting with USC / UCLA no longer being relevant for LA kids, and Gonzaga not being able to compete moneywise.   If Lloyd comes here, he will be second fiddle to Duke every single year in NIL and recruits.  Not to mention the entire SEC and Big East for kids who want to stay in those regions to play. This is why I keep saying go get Mark Few.  Has proven he can do more with less from an X / O perspective but can also recruit All American players and compete at a high level. He's a god at Gonzaga, but for $9M he'd make the move as that's 4x what he's making at Gonzaga, and makes him the highest paid coach in the country.
