I think he is as good a prospect as Joe Haden was.. I remember Joe Haden ran a poor 40 time at the combine, then redeemed himself at his proday.. identical to Claiborne. They are both elite in coverage. I don't remember Revis as a prospect.. did not pay attention to that position because CB wasn't a need back then.

Style wise, I'd like to compare him to Joe Haden out of those players. Both great play makers and have great ball skills.

Personally I think he is a better corner than Patrick Peterson.

And speaking of Haden, Janoris always seemed like the better corner at UF when they played together.

Claiborn and Kirkpatrick are basically Peterson and Amukamara of last year. With the exception there are 2 or 3 more good CBs in this draft. Honesty I would be happy with either and both will be impact players in the right situations.

Not too sure about that. I believe Claiborne and Janoris are the top two CBs (Jenkins could have been the top CB taken if it wasn't for his past).

To each his own. Like I said there are some really good CBs in this draft. I just think Kirkpatrick is above him with his size and his tackling ability.

Think I would have to say Claiborne resembles DRC the most. As for Kirkpatrick, he's always been one of my favorite prospects mostly because of how much he reminds me of Chris Gamble. I'd love fore Chris to be able to mentor Dre.

Agreed and there is a reason that the Panthers have not interviewed any CBs. Its cause they dont want to show there hand on who they like the most. Either that or they are happy with Capt. and I hope thats not the case...

Yea, it's doubtful that Claiborne falls to them. There really isn't another CB worth taking at 9, so they would most likely target one in the second round. Either that or they like Hogan to be the starter...

    • Have to stop making everything about BY. They will and have been bringing in players to improve the TEAM, not just Bryce Young. Which is something they should have done BEFORE bringing in a rookie QB. Even Metchie is a generally good pickup at a position of need. He just happens to have played with BY in college. And that doesn't hurt his chances or the team's. Morgan just addressed the biggest areas of need on the team via free agency so they won't be reaching for a position of need in the draft. He's legit picking the best player available for the TEAM in the draft. The o-line was in shambles in 2023. He addressed it in 2024. The d-line was in shambles in 2024. He addressed it in 2025. The pass rush and linebackers were in shambles in 2025. He's addressed it in 2026. Unfortunately good young WRs don't hit the FA market, so can't just throw money at them. You have to draft them. I wonder what some would be saying if they'd spent the amount of cap on the offense that they spent on the defense in 2025 and 2026 - and then used both first round draft picks on defense. Would that have been better in your eyes? No. You would be complaining that the defense is too young to compete and more vets weren't brought in because they're trying to prop up BY. This team should be talented enough now to make some noise in the South. If BY is actually holding them back, then QB will be addressed in 2027. They benched him 2 games into their tenure and you think they're tied to his success. No. That doesn't compute. They're tied to the team's success. BY could throw for 5000 yards and if they're 4 - 13, head's will roll.  TLDR: Their decisions aren't driven by making BY look good. They're trying to improve the team and win games. Period. 
    • I still firmly believe that Tepper still has his mandate of make Bryce work or get fired and because of that, it doesn't matter how badly he does... He'll get a long term deal in the 40-50m range and set back this franchise for a decade. Then the Teppers will have another QB infatuation and maybe they get it right then.
