I'm very surprised by the Tauren Poole cut... hopefully we can stash him for another year on the practice squad. I liked what I saw out of him more than what I saw from Smith.

Surprised about White. He never really stood out to me. I wonder what that means for Dockery.

Dockery probably will go to IR. White might be cut if we pick up another CB.

Quietly, he had the 2nd most tackles for the panthers in preseason and was never really out of position, which is more than you can ever really hope for from UDFA's.  I honestly thought he was a year away from making the active roster, but it's great to see he proved me wrong.  He'll be a great project for the panthers and he'll get some valuable experience this season.

I don't think it's bashing to say AE hasn't done anything of note in preseason games. I mean, as a fan, what have you actually seen from the guy? Someone said he works hard? Cool, so does almost every other person in the NFL. Working hard does not equal a roster spot.

 

I'm sure there are going to be better wide receivers cut in the next few hours. And while AE might be a cool folk/hometown hero, it's about having the best 53. Not about having feel good stories.

Contrary to popular belief there is stuff that happens besides just those 4 preseason games where coaches evaluate.

Watched the guy first hand at camp. Was really impressed with his development. We've already sunk the worst 3 years into him. What will one more really cost us?

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
