Current draft range (3rd to 15th)


Leeroy Jenkins Ph.D.

Recommended Posts

Alright Panther fans. Here is the draft order breakdown.  Things have become relatively clear in regards to our draft pick.  We could move up as high as 3rd, or drop as low as 15th based on what happens over the course of the next 2 weeks. Allow me to explain:

The highest the Panthers can move in the draft is currently 3rd.  This would only happen if we lose our next 2 games and the Bengals win 2 of their last 3 games.  This would put the Bengals at 4-11-1 and the Panthers at 4-12.   

We can not catch either the Jaguars or the Jets, as the best they can finish is 3-13 and the worst we can finish is 4-12. 

There are currently 12 teams with 4, 5, or 6 wins. One of those 12 teams is going to win the NFCE and remove themselves from the picture. The other 11 teams will by competing for the 4th-15th picks in the draft.  Currently, we are the best of that group and if the season ended today, we would be sitting at pick #4.  

However, one win could drop us about 8 spots to pick 12, and 2 wins could drop us to 15th, given all the other teams fighting for draft position lose their respective games.

Assuming things stay where they are, how many calls will the Bengals have for Teams to jump a head of us and grab a QB?...

Bengals play the Steelers (tonight), then Texans (possible win), then Ravens.  Currently the Ravens are on the playoff bubble, so it is unlikely that they will roll over.

My guess is, the Bengals finish the season 3-12-1 and maintain the 3rd pick.

This is great, thank you

Are you sure about our current position? I thought Atlanta moved ahead of us based on strength of schedule. Are you inferring that if both Carolina and Atlanta lose their last two games that we would win the tie breaker with Atlanta?

This is correct as of right now.  Our SOS can change, but currently ours is lower (.531) than theirs (.536) keeping us at 4 and the Falcons at 5.

I don't think they move off of that pick with Sewell sitting there. He's exactly what they need for Burrow and is the best non-QB in the draft. No brainer for them to just draft him and not even think twice about it. Whatever extra picks they could get trading down wouldn't be worth it to miss out on getting him.

    • He made some excellent throws but he always has made some excellent throws here and there. I don't know what to think, which is what I was apprehensive about. Is he going to have a decent downfield game? Because okay Legette dropped one, but someone was giving stats prior to the bye or during it where he had two downfield completions and one of them was the jump ball that is just launched and fingers are crossed that our guy comes down with it, and yesterday we saw that again. The Russell Wilson school of downfield passing.  I don't feel like that is sustainable, but at the same time you have to do Something to make the defense understand they have to defend that downfield throws. Like i said, confused.  I guess I'm going to review the game for myself and look closely at his mechanics and stuff because if he actually fixed that stuff it explains the better throws. And that has been my biggest objection, or what I see as the thing that makes or breaks his chances, that unorthodox dropback and tippy toe action and not having his feet set which limits velocity etc etc. 
    • The negative Nancy in me (or objective?) says that they had a bye week to prepare for the Chiefs. However, it’s one thing to have a good plan and it’s another to actually execute it. For all the flack he’s received (from me as well), Bryce seemingly has put his head down and worked his tail off and his play is giving me hope. The first 18-game Bryce showed no progression whatsoever. He gets benched, comes back, and has shown steady progress every week he has started. I think I’m starting to see what the Bryce lovers and unconditional defenders were saying all along, and I hope he can show that on a regular basis for the sake of our QB1 position. 
    • Yeah, we could still very well end up 4-13 with the 2nd pick.   I think LVR has the inside track for 1, with only a JAX team as a team on docket that could be beatable.
