The only players they should trade up for are Will Johnson or Emmanwori. If they stay put one of Green, Sawyer, Watts, or Collins should be there.

Day after...still a little shocked, I think its fairly obvious that the good teams take defensive studs... Falcons, Ravens, Eagles all got the guys I wanted and its like they just know who the pick and the Panthers don't...but I'm optimistic that Tetairoa can be a bonafide #1 which is what we need desperately. I'll be pulling for him. I think he's a better prospect than DJ Moore

I hope that happens, because I would love to add Graham to this defense. He's an Aaron Donald/Quinten Williams type DT. Winning at the line is how you win defense. If Evero can't figure it out with Brown, Graham, Wharton, Brown III up front, then I don't know what to tell him

I think the first four picks are already locked - 1. Ward 2. Hunter 3. Carter 4. Campbell Draft starts at 5, Jacksonville should go Graham or Walker but might actually go Jeanty. If they go Jeanty, then the Raiders are taking 6. Membou. Then the Jets will have their choice of Walker or Graham, and the Panthers will pick whoever is left unless there is a good enough trade down scenario. And I actually do think Dart goes 9 to the Saints

I could make the same prediction, but I don't get paid for it. Must be nice to have that job

Still think it will be Walker, Graham, Williams, Nolen in that order. Nolan is the backup option if they trade down. If they trade too far down and pick up a next years first or something like that, thats when you start looking at the safeties or Jihaad Campbell or Grant

I don't think there are any surprises. It will be Walker, and if he's off the board....Mason Graham, and if they both are off the board then Mykel Williams

The Panthers have told everyone who they are going to pick a couple weeks before the draft ever since the Brian Burns draft. There are mockers who have every single Panthers 1st round pick correct for 8 years. It's possible they trade down, but they really want Walker if they don't get a good offer

As much as I love Walker, I say go Warren. He's a Witten/Olsen type of TE and Im sorry but we need that for Bryce and the offense.

The two blue chippers that you want go to war with in our range are Walker and the TE Warren. Bryce likes throwing to tight ends and Warren is a true Greg Olsen type TE. It's worth the gamble. Having an elite TE has proven to be a winning formula in the NFL

I'd rather have Walker than Carter. Carter gives me Chase Young vibes

Please be Hendrickson and not Higgins

I think Kupp would be a good add for Young. He still has some juice in him like AT did the last two seasons

He's young and suffered the injury in the superbowl. He's still very much a pro bowl linebacker. Terrell Suggs suffered the same injury and went on to play at an elite level for 5 more years

I don't get why Greenlaw went for that cheap. I would much rather have Greenlaw than Wharton who we paid more for. We still need competent linebackers.

I mean we did sign one of the NFL's best guards last free agency

He won't get a first with his contract. I'd pay the 2nd or 3rd for him no problem, but of course that means he is taking XL's spot and we just drafted XL in the first round :(. Metcalf/Coker/AT is a good 1-3 Absolutely would trade Horn for Metcalf and then go all in on the defense in the draft and FA if that was an option

The Ickey draft, he got the entire top 10 completely correct, even the order of the Giants two picks. He definitely is the best of the business right now. He also locked the Panthers to Jaycee Horn 2 weeks before the draft, and most everyone here didn't see that pick coming when his name was called on draft night

I'm pretty sure Charlie Campbell has called every single Panthers first pick correct since the Brian Burns draft. Clearly a leak in the Panthers building that goes beyond ownership and front offices. Panthers really like to lock on to one particular player a few weeks before the draft happens

I like Wilson but he is not worth the 8th overall pick Now if we trade down to like 20 and pick up a high 2nd or a 2026 first, and then trade 20 for Wilson, sure

Bryce probably had too much on his plate being the starter, even in the offseason, but being the backup for 6 weeks, he could simply just focus on his footwork and urgency in the huddle/pocket, and he got that fixed pretty quick. That's what's remarkable about this - there's QBs that have been in the league for years and years that haven't fixed that yet. Bryce's pocket presence is already levels ahead of Darnold who has been in the league 5+ years and just went 14-3. Gives me high hopes for Bryce.

His pocket presence, ability to avoid pressure and ability to stay calm and deliver the big throw is a total 180 from his first 18 games and makes me believe he can work himself into a perennial top 10 QB Like I have no clue how he was able to fix that so quickly. There are QB's who have been in the league 5+ years and haven't figured that out (Darnold)

Honestly I'd rather Morgan pull a Hurney and take a linebacker. Walker or Jihaad Campbell. I think the line can be fixed...our linebackers were atrocious this year however. The league is trending towards the running game again and we don't have a chance if we don't have linebackers that can stop the run. Does Hurney have a job? He should consult Morgan on the 1st round pick and that pick only. Hurney was incredible at eying all-pro talent in the first, but thats about all he could do

I think if Hunter, Grant, McMillian and Starks are gone trade down to the 12-15 range and take Jihaad Campbell. We need smart tough players in the front 7 more than just a pass rusher

"Team sources say Graham has a bad body and looks like “the marshmallow man.” They think he could be a mid-first-round pick." That doesn't inspire confidence
