There are zero reputable mocks that dont have him in the first.

If he comes into the combine at 250+ he's going to be borderline top 15.  He comes in at 240 he'll fall but still stay a first rounder

Not saying either of you are wrong, but most mocks have him all over the place.  I've seen as high as 7, and yes, some outside of the 1st round. SB Nation at 22, Bleacher Report at 24, Sporting News not in the 1st, CBS - one mock at 23, one at 25, one mock outside the first, Walter Football at 25. 

He's a guy I like and should be in the first, but for every guy who starts projected in the 20s and rises in the draft, the same number fall.  Hell, Kony Ealy was a projected 1st rounder in some mocks right around draft time years ago.

Things will obviously change and they're meaningless, but seen a mock draft or two with Sweat in the 2nd round.  Doubt he's an option at 16 unless he kills the combine. 

He will absolutely be an option. He plays DE and he's one of the top prospects that will be on the board when we pick at 16. Not sure why you think he is not an option with our weakness at the position.

Since we are doing a youth movement could we start changing into a 3-4 defense?? (I know there are tons of posts about this and it’s a process) Poe could be great as a NT with Short as a DE. If we draft Sweat we can use him and Haynes on the outside (probably Addison too) giving us Shaq (or TD if we sign him for cheap) and Luke in the middle. Still leaves us one DE short, but we can try Butler at it or sign a FA... I feel like we are constantly missing prospects because they don’t fit the 4-3 scheme...

      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.

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

      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.
