Mark Williams is a good pick. Duren is raw and the youngest player in the draft. How much realistically do ya'll think he would have contributed next year??..We already have that player on the roster by the name of Kai Jones. Mark Williams will come in and play at least 20 minutes a game.  

Williams is an ole school center without a shot.  Will pull for him but he won’t play here for 3 years with our coaches

Might not even play at all might get traded to LA for Westbrook who will play 2 v 5 with Melo against the other teams

LOL…Westbrook would be completely welcome for me.  Go get him.   Lets at least watch a hall of famer do his thing while we lose

If what's been reported so far is all we got out of this I'm on record now. Fug Mitch.

Imagine being desperate to hire a head coach and deciding this trade was a good idea. They probably just turned off any decent available candidate. At least keep both picks on your roster til you hire a guy and get through Summer League, then make a trade

We traded him to NY, right?  Then NY sent him to Detroit along w Kemba?

I'm honestly going out on a wing here.. more like a prayer but there was a report earlier that Detroit was interested in Hayward.. maybe Kup is trying to work a 3 team trade and working some sort of GM sorcery here.. if that's the case I'm all I. With mark

Have you guys actually seen Duren play??...He is the same rim running/lob threat that Mark Williams is. Duren is more athletic overall but from what I've seen of Duren he doesn't have much of an offensive game. 

Both are bigs that really offer no floor spacing.. in pick amd roll situations Duren was miles ahead of Williams athletically.. the edge Williams has is post moves due to physicality but neither are even average shooters and that's where my issue lies.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      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.
