It's starting to feel like it's Bryce for sure.

Will definitely be curious how the offense is built to accommodate Young’s hobbit-like stature.

Would be the most accurate way to describe it. I do not have someone directly in the Carolina building. 

That makes sense, thanks for clarifying.

Maybe it's not an accurate/complete draft board yet even though many are on the Young train and that can change just a day before the draft starts. We just need to wait it out.            

It's all chatter and guesswork.

Have you gotten a chance to look at The Beast 2023 (Brugler's write-up)? Were there any prospects that you were surprised to see that he was high on that you aren't or that you're high on that he wasn't?

I have not. Been doing my own scouting reports, but I always try to look at his once I have all mind done

Yeah everything is pointing towards him

Were there any position groups that you believe will be especially deep when the #39 selection is on the clock? iirc you've mentioned the EDGE guys and CBs being deep this year?

Do not feel bad about that.  I used to be 5' 7".

I after hearing from Matt Miller, it seems they traded to #1 for Stroud. Who knows if it has/will shift. Our best inside source on this board says it’s Stroud. We shall see.

Which inside source would that be? Because as a spectator on here for a while the most accurate person on this board has been The Crown and Claw person and I don't think they've said anything one way or another. Every other 'source' on here usually just says really vague information. The Crown and Claw at least has been direct with names and what not.

There are a few with claims. Another one said ten days or so ago it's Stroud and his been since before free agency.

I'm not knocking the insight and always appreciate your contributions on here and social media. 

I do think best guesses from industry sources is nothing new than what's already being discussed on all of the major media sources....NFL Network, ESPN, WFNZ, Draft Network, etc. 

A lot of opinions and speculation vs. concrete proof, Panthers' organization leaks, etc.

Two-ish more weeks of this back and forth....keep the popcorn, popping.

Leaky Faucet, who has been spot on with other things.

Yeah, I’ve seen the Leaky Faucet person say that and again — just as somebody who’s been spectating for a while — I don’t think their track record has been nearly as good as the Crown and Claw person. Not trying to stir the pot or anything, just an observation.
