Their model gets poo for being too early and making too many changes throughout the year but this time it's kind of scary how well they were able to frame most scenarios especially Carolina. 

 

NFL Team Logo for Panthers Carolina Panthers: Charles Cross, OT, Mississippi State

Matt Rhule believes he's the Jay-Z of NFL head coaches, but he's more Silkk the Shocker than Jay-Z at the moment. For Rhule to truly be Jay-Z, he needs his Beyonce, but he doesn't have a better quarterback option than Sam Darnold, who is basically Rebecca Black. The Panthers whiffed on all the quarterbacks they could've obtained via trade, so they could use this selection on a signal-caller, given that this is the only pick the team has in the top 100. 

However, it's sounding like the Panthers will use this pick on a tackle. Carolina doesn't have second- and third-round picks, but it could use the ones it has in 2023 to obtain someone like Matt Corral. If so, the Panthers can take one of the top three tackles. 

Charles Cross has great feet as a former five-star recruit. Charlie Campbell reported that Cross has impressed team evaluators this season.

*** OTHER 2022 NFL DRAFT POSSIBILITIES: *** 

1. Ikem Ekwonu/Evan Neal, OT - I now believe Carolina is going tackle... 

2. Malik Willis, QB - However, quarterback is still a possibility.

Yes Ekwonu was mocked then changed but only because of how other teams saw him and they didn't see a possibility of him being available. The scenario about Matt Corral was spot on like they actually got some inside perspective or they are actual savants, lol. Either way I tend to get a general consensus for mocks to gain perspective. I just found this very interesting that this was so close to reality and hopefully it all plays out for the best.

People around here use to discredit you for bringing up Walterfootball but I like some of their content. Charlie Campbell is particularly good. And they have this one column they do every year position reviews that no one else does.

They combine that year's draft class with the one before it and rank where the prospects would rank if it were one big draft class by position.

Charlie got the first 10 picks correct and has picked the last 5 Panthers 1st round picks correct. Walter's takes are idiotic but Charlie is a good one

yeah, to be that spot on...you kind of start doubting that they know something, at least Charlie does.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
