Would like to hear about who you guys think are sleepers/diamonds in the rough.

Ill start.

DT Montori Hughes

Big DT that was a highly rated prep player that was dismissed from Tennessee and finished out his college career at Tennessee-Martin.

CB/S Melvin White

Big fast athletic DB from Louisiana Layfayette that has played S and CB.

Glad to see this thread.

I am also glad DT is pretty loaded this year.

I kind of disagree about Montori Hughes. Yes, the raw ablity is there, but he put up mostt of his stats at the FCS level vs. a 2-win team. He should have dominated.

A player who played on the FCS level and DID dominate is Georgia Southern's Brent Russell. He too, however,has character issues.

My sleeper DT is Chris Jones of Bowling Green. 6-1, 292 and quick. Finished 4th in the nation with 12.5 sacks (a DT, mind you).

Regarding Hughes, he was double teamed quite a bit. Just in the youtube vid he was being doubled and still holding is ground quite well.

I want a NT that has the tools physically to excel at his position.

Russell and Jones are UTs. Although id prefer us to draft a potential starting NT I wouldnt be upset with those guys.

Ricky Wagner (OT Wisconsin)

I trust Wisconsin o-lineman more than any other school in the country. Wanted Zeitler last season who's played great in the league and think Wagner definitely could be good at the next level. Is average in some areas but doesn't have any glaring weaknesses.

      Bryce Young Game Winning Drives

      By KaseKlosed · Posted

      Bryce Young has recorded 4 game-winning drives through nine weeks, leading the Carolina Panthers to crucial victories in tight contests. The 12-play, 58-yard clock-killer versus the Packers in Week 9 (16-13 upset). This pace positions him as the team's most clutch performer in years, with a 68.4% success rate on go-ahead drivesalready surpassing many franchise benchmarks early in his career.   Young's early 2025 surge (top-5 league-wide in clutch EPA at 0.28 per dropback) not only outstrips the debuts of Newton (2 in 2011) and Delhomme (1 in 2003) but hints at him climbing this list quickly if the Panthers sustain their wildcard hunt. Data underscores his growth: no other Panther QB hit 4 GWDs before Week 10 in a season.   The energy fans pour into the stadium directly shapes Bryce Young’s performance positive support has been shown to elevate his fourth-quarter efficiency by 12%, strengthening team cohesion and execution under pressure. Criticizing or booing the starting quarterback fractures morale, disrupts focus, and undermines the very resilience needed in clutch moments. When fans stand firmly behind their QB and team, they become a true home-field advantage, amplifying performance and accelerating the path to sustained success. Now are you a Carolina Panther fan or a Panther hater?

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      Bryce would have extended some plays scrambling with his legs but then again he also has a high number of fumbles so you never know what you're going to get and the way the Bills were getting after Andy (sacked 7 times) it stands to reason Bryce would have been under duress often. What exactly do you want here? I mean I'm going to go by the gameplan I saw after Bryce turned the ball over against GB. Clearly Dave Canales was deliberately trying to limit the opportunities for him to make a catastrophic mistake. And didn't Micah Parsons log zero QB pressures? So with that in mind if you are asking for anyone to argue our offense with Bryce would have had much if any success against that opportunistic motivated Bills defense while we were also splitting carries between Rico and Chuba who had the majority of them which ended up being a situation resulting in a weeks worth of scathing criticism and deservedly so then I'm going to just have to say we can agree to disagree.
