I wouldn't be shocked if we took Lamar Jackson at #24. Now people may say why the hell would we draft a QB?

 

1. We need a backup for Cam. Yes he is the franchise, but with his style of play you got to start thinking longterm about his health and potential risk to more injuries. What better QB for Cam to take under his wing than Lamar Jackson? Jackson can learn from Cam and maybe even see playing time on wildcard packages and gadget plays. Drafting Lamar Jackson at #24 allows us to have a QB for the future and a reliable backup in case Cam gets injured. It wouldn't shock me if we took him in the 1st round.

Who is your wildcard pick at #24 that would shock the fans?

Taking a developmental backup #24 overall when you have a 29 year old franchise QB would be dumb as hell. You start looking for you QB of the future once your established starter is mid-30s. We should be 4-5 years away from that.

I'll go with Kolton Miller as my wildcard. No one is talking about OTs for us this year for the first time in just about forever, but Matt Kalil just isn't all that great and who knows what type of contract Daryl Williams might command.

Id say any Tight End or Offensive Tackle would be very unexpected.

Id flip my table if Hurney picked D. Payne... I think hes like the 2nd rated DT or something , but Ive had enough DTs to last me a few years since Gettlemans tenure and Hurney flubbing on Fua and McClain. I just hope he stays the hell away from DT. 

I think we will be in position to possibly draft the # 3 saftey, #3 CB, there are a lot of signs pointing to this pick being made on the secondary.

Readlly wild card pick - Taven Bryan

Surely I'm not the only person who thinks the JJ Watt comparisons are absurd.  Watt had double the tackles, triple the tackles for loss, and double the sacks in two seasons at Wisconsin as Bryan did in three at Florida.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
