DraftPanthers.com Way Too Early Draft Grade


Recommended Posts

i have a problem with the way he graded kugbila.

the two things he docked him for the most was where he was drafted and that he wasn't a RT. the assumption is that we should have used that pick on a RT, but i disagree...not that we didn't need or shouldn't have drafted a RT, but just where he was drafted. you look for guards in that range and when you do so, you find solid talent. that's where you should be drafting your guards. you shouldn't be drafting OTs there, though. the level of talent of a guard in the fourth round is pretty equal to the level of talent you get from a guard a round or two earlier and that has mainly to do with the value of OTs to OGs. OTs are just mkre valuable and go earlier than OG.

i think also that hangartner isn't here long term and if he is, it's for depth, tho to start the year and for probably most if it he will be starting ahead of kugbila. i watched a lot of valdosta st last night from the past couple years just to see what there was to kugbila...and i came away impressed.

here in a little while I'm going to make a thread about it.

overall, tho, i like the write up esp. the take on grading rookies. pretty impressive, tbh.

    • There probably isn’t an orthopedic surgery that has had more improvement in technique and outcomes over the last two decades than the acl repair. Because of its importance in pro sports and the sheer number that surgeons do there have been lots of opportunities to practice 1. Better techniques - arthroscopic v open surgery means people heal faster  2. More training - all sports med surgeons have tons of experience doing them 3. better imaging - later generations of mri are more sensitive  4. better therapy - PTs have gotten better at rehabbing them and the theories of rehab have improved a lot. No idea about brooks in particular tho, but I’d describe that overall situation as “not great”
    • If Freeling or either of the Utah OTs dropped to 19 I'd be more than happy honestly. Our OT situation isn't great with an aging Moton at RT and a mess of a situation at LT if Walker goes down at any point in time.  What I'm expecting the Panthers to do is probably draft another weapon like Sadiq or KC Conception. That's been their track record in drafting R1 thus far. None of the defensive talent projected to be around 19 stands out to me. Unless they just want to draft a LB early (Rodriguez,  CJ Allen, Anthony Hill, Jake Gollday).
