Destined to be a Carolina Panther

Since this thread is pretty misleading, I thought it was going to be about players you think the Panthers will select....to keep this alive, I will start.

1. Ladd McConkey  WR

2. Payton Wilson LB

3. Ja'Tavion Sanders TE

I think one or two of these will be Panthers--I see the Panthers (Morgan with Keuchly in his ear) loving Wilson.

Wilson would be a fantastic get in the 2nd round.

Since we have a #1 WR, a slot WR, and a developing Z WR (--Mingo--I am not down on him like others are--he progressed, IMO), we could use a YAC guy and maybe a slot WR to groom behind Thielen.   Having said that, those guys are pretty plentiful later--(like Washington, McCaffery, Corley).  I honestly think the place where we could make the biggest upgrade is a pass-catching TE.  I would not be surprised to see Sanders taken at 39. At 33, if an X WR falls, yes, but if not, maybe C or LB.

Having said that, we seem to have not shown any interest in C this offseason-there is a stud free agent available and there are 3 in the draft who would be long-term answers at C.  Even if Corbett can play C, he is in the last year of his contract.  They must know something we do not.

Respecting this mock, CB (with Horn's injury history) is a much bigger need than most of us realize, so I am OK with Tampa.  I also think we will pick up a waived CB.

Really good way to start a draft but you know the draft never goes exactly the way you expect it to go

I think the Panthers might target those players--not sure they will get all 3...It was not a mock, but a guess--I would not be surprised to see the Panthers draft KY RB Ray Davis, or Jonas Elliss (OLB) Utah.  All hunches.

Yah I like Ray Davis a lot and Audric is fine for day 3,  but I'm surprise no one mention Cody Schrader from Missouri . Dude is a beast and run mad, consistent run through the SEC defense and leading SEC in rushing. And has dawg mentality.

Some other Day3 RBs - Dillion Johnson from Washington, Isaac Guerendo from Louisville, Blake Watson from Memphis.

Bottom line - Don't let your kids play RB in school.

    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
    • This KC team isn't the juggernaut it once was.  How many one score games have they won this season?  How many of those one score wins would probably have been loses if Mahomes wasn't the QB?  Their secondary is vulnerable and it was obvious today.  Grandpa Thielen was able to get open at will all game long. Bryce played well, but thinking this is the exact same KC defense Young was able to move the ball against as last year isn't going to compute.  Last year's KC defense was #2 overall.  They have regressed. I've said it before, Bryce can move the ball before the red zone, but once there, he struggles.  He is not a threat with his legs and the passing windows get much tighter.  He's not turning the ball over, so that is a great place to start and build upon.  I still question much better he can get.  Beyond a game manager?  I highly doubt it.
