So you guys want to go DE, CB, RB, OT C, what do you like next?

So a lot of Panthers mock draft makers had us taking Zavala, and they were right. Nice job Huddlers.

Crap.

And the whole presentation comes across like they think the audience has ADHD.

We could take Luke Wypler for depth at center.

Jaquelin Roy would be nice here, or Clark Phillips.

Yeah the Eagles just played it right.

I want Clark Phillips III

Well we already took DJ.

At the time I thought we were targeting BJ or Mingo and I said as much. It looked to me that BJ could fall into our lap, and that would be that. Then instead we went with Mingo, but I thought we could trade down a few spots and still have taken Mingo, he doesn't exactly get much separation. We don't know for sure if Fitt wanted BJ or not, but I have a feeling he did. So then I thought let's skip the edge rushers and get better value with our next pick. Or at least stay put and let a lesser edge fall in our laps. We did the opposite and traded up for an edge who imo should have been sitting there for our next pick. That's when I got upset, but who knows what would have really happened. Would I have been upset if DJ was picked and we stayed put? No. No one would have outside of the Panthers war room. Who cares?

Did this butthole punch a fan???

He's not good at getting sacks, and he's not stronger than YGM. So basically we traded up for YGM's backup. Dumb.

Bad end to a good night overall. Peace out.

Fitt dropped the ball here imo. Trade up for a backup? No.

Odd.

Holy crap!!!!!!!!

I told you guys Fitt would take Mingo in my "what I think about round 2" thread. There it is.

Welp I was saying we were going to take Mingo. There it is. I knew Fitt would do that.

Mingo like I thought.

If I am a Detriot fan looking at this draft I am not happy.

HAHAHAH Detriot!!!!

There is something about college football in that a lot of colleges take track stars, put them at WR, and then just count on the opposing DBs being mediocre. Or the DBs blowing their assignments, busted coverage, ect. I think that makes it even harder to figure out some of the middle of the pack WRs.

I like Hyatt and I would take him at the 39th pick, but I think the Panthers think he is risky. I think the scouts are worried because he didn't do much his freshman and sophomore years, and only his junior year did he make a splash. That means less tape to evaluate him, which I think might make the scouts think he's risky. Also we know he can run vertical routes and get open. That is not in question. But we need him to run slants especially, and crossing stuff, and what all can he do? And against big NFL DBs. Well I think it might be harder to evaluate him for the scouts, so that is why I think the Panthers think there is more risk. I like him. Give him an end around, let him use his speed. Hell let him return punts and kick offs. Send him on vertical routes to teams from moving their defense up to stop our running game.

For newer Panthers fans, many years ago Rivera and pill popping Payton go into a trench building battle. RR went out and built up our d-line, and for one season we were able to get a great push into the interior Saint's pocket. It was so effective that Brees actually looked terrible. The Saints responded by building up the interior of their o-line, neutralizing our pass rush. We got our asses handed to us after that.
