Just reading some scenario's about who our rivals think will fall to them or who they could move up and pick off had me thinking.

For example, one article had the falcons moving up in front of us to draft Okudah or Simmons.  Another had Brown dropping to 16  (although I think that was prickso so it doesn't really count).  Another had OT's Wirf or Wills falling to the bucs at 14.

A lot of guys on here follow the draft a lot more closely than I do.

What names being drafted by our division rivals tonight and rest of weekend will tick you off the most?  Personally I love Simmons and his fit as a pro player.  If the falcons move ahead of us to take him I will be ticked.

Atlanta has a bad habit of building top-heavy rosters and losing because they lack depth. I'm hoping they trade up--even if they get someone we think will be a stud now, they'll just be digging themselves even deeper into a future hole. 

That said, the idea of a division rival getting Simmons to use as a box safety against McCaffrey makes me want to throw things.

Jordan Love to the Saints.  ugh seems like he could be the Patrick Mahomes of this draft.

He has upside but he has a long road of learning in the NFL before he’s anywhere near ready to start, let alone play like Mahomes... I do like him though and the Aints would give him a good shot to learn before Brees hangs them up and with an offensive genius in Payton, so I agree I do not want the Aints to get him and his upside.

I don’t care how good Simmons is, he’s not keeping up with CMC. Some very good players got jumped out of body by him

Falcons have a lot of the same needs as we do on defense. Brace yourself for them to get two or three players we would've loved to have.

I worry about the Saints landing Love or Hurts, or another fugging receiver.

Also worry about the Buc's getting a top receiver.

      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.
