I have not learnt my lesson and will always want Uber athletic profiles. Sorry, Im a whore about it.... Im not the right guy to defend Kenyon, I just have a understanding with this years draft, numbers, and panthers roster. He is more of "upside/project" and we are talking 19th pick here too. I know about the years of all the mock drafts with TEs in them and I did want Pitts too.... Look I love the current TEs on the roster too, just this guy should be better than any of them at their best. Right now I feel OT is the correct target, but panthers as a org are trying to win in 2026 than 2027. So tea leaves and all, Kenyon would help this year. You can even say flex him to slot for most of the snaps and think of tmac on smoke routes with Kenyon blocking for him. I just hate BY is the shooter..... warren, I would say he's the better prospect even without his rookie year, *but he was late bloomer like XL if Im right, plus age was 25ish?? Bears picked love above him, mainly cause of recs. You can make a case that Kenyon is not a TE, but a moving weapon for offense that can be in the backfield, on the LOS, slot, and even X.... imean he's got XLs combine on some numbers.... He would be better to a offense mad scientist type...is that Dave? or is that bevell?? I think the Panthers should have him as a 19 pick, with others...

They do not put him on the pedestal that we do, again UNC believes "hey MJ went to UNC" Kid- "so what how much money and playing am I getting, or many followers do I get?" Its 2026 brother and a whole new game, it hasn't made a difference in the last 20+ years. I mean it did to stack house and Vince, but we are talking 90s....... these new kids do not care, I bet not one of the last 40 or so came to UNC cause of MJ. its a different world, Davis didn't even ask for commish until it was too late. last firmware update is from 1999....

I think its 1.49, but I will the the official time and numbers(he tore it up). Besides his frame, he's top .000001% But can he block edges?? what's his route tree?? those are the issues. personally I feel he should be in the discussion, among 4/5 others. Who knows the new hire Darrel bevell may change the offense system some, I hope he does......

I want to post a few choice lines, its past time Davis needs firing..... get with the times UNC, dook has filled up the NBA with ballers and UNC is hang on to Vince Carter playing his 28th season. These kids do not care about Michael Jordan or Phil Ford or Big game James....If there not been a super player in the last four years, they could care less. So sad about the current state, get rid of the coaching bum!

I have about 3.7% confidence BY would target him.....

I mean this a ST signing and why not?? Dan took care of defense day 1 with Lloyd and Phillips and next day offense with picket(lololool), methie and Walker .....next up ST resigned martin for cheap and franks and this guy to round out a excellent FA period. Im still in shock panthers got the top 3 on many boards FAs to sign here......2 were discounted on top of that. so long I as don't look at the QB group........ bravo Dan.

People would be shocked at what players do to add length...... Id drop the Utah measure, combine was a equal playing field for everyone....

If you look at the current roster, the "upgrade" spot is either slot/starter TE or NB. Plus like it or not they are going hard/all-in this year, so drafting a backup OT maybe not high in the plans(not that I agree). I feel they will draft more of "help right now 2026" 1st rounder. So that's TE, slot, NB, or maybe DL *but the DL group is weak and got weaker with banks injury news. Given you don't want to use 1st on NB, that's leaves TE or slot. There's only one TE worth a first and the next had a insane combine and jumped into late 2nd range, otherwise wait til 4th. TE is like the RB group, one top prize, one mid and bunch of 5th+/- rounders. The high odds that WR will be BPA, so huddle prepare thy anus....

That's my biggest beef and dang if its not a huge deal. Besides a few other moves ie trading up for injured brooks.... I feel he has improved the overall team and they have gotten back on track. He was without a 1st and burns didn't want his offer, that's a rough start.... His first draft is looking very scary at this point, but enough with the issues. If you look at each group, you see some young talent. He did "fix" the OL and he also improved the DL, both with depth. I don't think herniay or gut did both with depth. That trade for Michael Jackson is looking like the #2 all-timer trade behind Olsen. He got a future 2nd and stayed in the 2nd round, value-wise that was about as good as it gets. He's added solid players from the UDFA pool each year. The team just had too many issues and panthers do have fewer than he started, in past years Marty never built a bench/depth. Just the QB room, that Pickett signing feels to me like a death KO. I personally feel no hope is there and he had plenty of cheap talented options........Just to have this QB room for me, that's almost fired worthy....But important as it is, the other positions groups have improved and mostly young players are in the mix. I do not need to see if Lloyd will improve the team, I know he will. I feel Dan must use a draft pick, prefer before 6th round to draft some hope dealer in the QB room. Then roll will 3 QBs...

My old man called this "playing the role".

imagine writing a Kenny Pickett article...

His age is not in Panthers plans, just check ANY of the ages of outside FAs in the past two years. I believe even Brandt tilis said the low age was a top goal.

One thing I can say, They want players in the 25-27 age range(some excect like punter..). Wagner is older than many of the kickers currently, still producing, but I think its too much of a gap for what Panthers are targeting.....Now if Lloyd gos down with a bad injury, hope a player like bobby is still out there and takes your call.
