yeah actually if you go back to the east west shrine thread i already had mentioned him several times. glad you made a thread about him though. most say his draft stock has risen from udfa to about the 5th round,

he did very good at the east west game but he was avg in the senior bowl where he gave up a sack on jones.

his main weakness now is that he will get(bullrushed) pushed back into the qb a whole lot for hurries but he does not give up many sacks.

i would start him off at left guard at first until he gets the hang of the nfl but i believe he could one day be a great left tackle. for a small scholl prospect this dude is off the charts. he has a high ceiling of potenial man.

Terron Armstead, OT, Arkansas-Pine Bluff: The small school left tackle looked fluid in his kick much of the day and didn't allow defenders to get into his body. He seemed to show adequate strength when defensive ends tried to bull rush him and was able to fan some of the pass rushers wide in drills. I don't know if Armstead will be a starting left tackle in the NFL, but for teams looking for a swing tackle he could be a very interesting player. Armstead might be a candidate to kick inside and work as a pulling guard as well.

I want to bump this because I think he's one of the guys who makes a monster rise come draft day. Just a hunch based off of the offseason "performances"

Not saying I want him but at the end of the day he could be a first round possibility imo

I think he's more likely to go in the second. Nevertheless, he has a lot of talent. Has really good feet and athletic ability but must get stronger at the point of attack.

Although highly unlikely, I wouldn't be completely shocked if someone took a chance on him late in the 1st.

Other than Fisher Johnson & Joekel, there should definitely be at least 1 or more OTs taken in the 1st. Looking at Watson, Fluker, & Armstead, I see 2 of them going in the first from my perspective.

I agree and based on everything I've seen I'd expect it to be Watson and Fluker but Armstead is right there as well. Definitely rooting for the kid. Kinda have a soft spot for small school kids, especially HBCUs.

Terren Jones from Alabama State is another one to watch from the same conference. Big kid, almost 6-8, 340-pounds. Could be a mid-late round sleeper candidate at RT or also move inside to OG. He actually made 1st team All-SWAC over Armstead, who was a 2nd team selection.

^^^ yeah and most people forget that jonathan ogden stared at guard too.......been interested in t.jones a long time now.

Yeah I've been on Jones for a while as well. I follow HBCU football almost as closely as major college football and many had Jones as the top prospect coming out of the HBCU ranks this year until Armstead's meteoric rise.

He has pretty good feet for such a big kid. Could be quite a gem in the 4-5 round.

      You're assuming just as well.   Morgan and Canales were hired 3 days apart.  I believe it was partially due to their connections in Seattle.  i believe Tepper wanted some familiarity with his GM and HC.  It is so easy to sit back and arm-chair QB over draft picks.  You don't know what the philosophy was going into the 2024 draft.  I believe Canales and Morgan were drafting for the future.  XL and Brooks point to that philosophy. Name me one GM that is 100% on draft picks.  Just one.  You're not going to find one.    I think year one picks weren't for what can you do for me now but Potential.   XL hasn't lived up to the hype of a 1st rounder.  I think we all can agree on that. However, there still is hope he comes around.  What I believe they saw in him was his speed after the catch.  He needs to get more consistent but when he gets the ball you kind of hold your breath just a second because if he gets free, he's gone.  The Brooks pick was a signing for the future, and no one could have guessed he would re-injure the same ACL.  This makes the pick look bad but Dallas was ready to draft him later that same round.  IMO we'll have to see what happens next season before we can call this a bust. Wallace has improved each season and for a third rounder has done well.  Sanders has shown flashes and considering the pick in the 4th round it wasn't a bad pick.  His sophomore season IMO was a little bit more productive.  Smith-Wade has been a good addition and has played well.  For a 5th round pick to get as much playing time as he has.  Most picks below round 3 should take a couple of years to get up to speed.  He's been a decent player.  Crumedy, no comment We turned Barrett into Jackson.  This was an amazing move and basically got a starting CB for a 7th round pick.  Pretty shrewd if you ask me. Coker, maybe the best Free Agent signing of the 2024 draft class. So, in short, you can't say that the draft was a bust.  It isn't a home run but all but one are still on the team and outside of Brooks have made contributions to wins.  2025 draft class has been much better with almost every pick making contributions this season.  Now take Fitterer's two years and compare them to Morgan and tell me that they have the same philosophy.

      Bryce Young is the first Panthers QB to throw for 20+ touchdowns in a season since Cam Newton in 2018.

      He hasn’t led crap, he’s on loaded teams and a piece of the puzzle. And he’s he has improved drastically but it took the ultimate QB whispers in Shanahan and KOC. You put him on this Panther team and he’s back to normal Darnold

      Slavin and Jarvis week to week. Florida cheap shots took out our two best players.  I’d start KK so he can beat the brakes off someone.
