ZackAttack23's 2013 Panthers Mock Draft 2.0

Round 1: Luke Joeckel OT Texas A&M 6-6 310 Lbs.

It's obvious we need O-line help. Jordan Gross is still very good, but he is losing a step and at some point needs to be replaced. By selecting Luke with this pick we will be just about set at OL.

Round 2: Matt Elam S Florida 5-10 206 Lbs.

We really need an aggressive safety out on the field. Nakamura ain't cutting it.

Round 4: Sheldon Richardson DT Missouri 6-3 290 Lbs.

We need a young DT to learn behind Dwan and Ron other than Sione and Nate.

Round 5: Terry Hawthorne CB Illinois 6-0 190 Lbs.

Gamble might or might not come back, Munnerlyn is a nickleback. So to draft Hawthorne is a great value.

Round 6: C.J. Fiedorowicz TE Iowa 6-6 265 Lbs.

Nice option to have opposite Olsen. He's only a Junior, but hopefully he comes out.

Round 7: Cobi Hamilton WR Arkansas 6-3 209 Lbs.

WR with nice size and great value in the 7th.

Love Joeckel and Elam. Really think WR is a much bigger need than a seventh round pick though....

WR is a position of need that needs to be addressed correct, but we also have other needs. At the spots we're drafting, the BPA's out way the needs. Hamilton is good though. Anyway it's early so mock drafts will continue to change based on performances.

Really? Whys that? I'm sure a couple guys will emerge in time for the combine. Tony Jefferson is another interesting prospect.

He's really stiff in the hips for starters. He has trouble with changing directions which isn't good when you're talking about coverage safeties. He's also been left looking lost in coverage on numerous occasions this season, and doesn't attack the ball as well as you like for a prototype FS. That's not to say he's not a good player. He's light years ahead of what we have at FS now, or what we would get from Godfrey. From what I've seen though, he would make a much better in the box strong safety. He's a great tackler, and loves initiating contact. He has the tools to be a better coverage guy, but he's been a liability in coverage more times this season then an asset.....

    • That's certainly what we hope but c'mon... stating it as fact when he's never played a down of NFL football? 
    • What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.
    • Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
