Panthers Select Chau Smith-Wade DB - Round 5, Pick 157

[KillerKat]

Have you guys not looked at our roster? He is not getting cut for career practice squad talent level players.

A 5th rounder isnt getting cut. Especially when his competition is Bootle, D.Jackson, L.Jackson, and AJ parker, all of whom have contributed nothing in the NFL.

btw, meant to say D.Jamison. Wish I could edit posts again.

I think he's the troy hill successor. Plus he can play outside too according to reports, but his home looks like slot, an evero slot.  

He shouldnt be cut, I mean Jamie robinson didn't get cut.....

Just an FYI folks:

Evero's Denver Defense - 

Surtain - the stud CB

Damarri Mathis 5'11 - outside (4th rounder)

K'waun Williams 5'9 - NB (UDFA)

Evero's Ram's Super Bowl Backfield - 

Ramsey - the stud CB

Darious Williams 5'9 - outside & slot (UDFA)

Nick Scott 5'11 - slot (7th rounder)

David Long 5'11 - slot (late 3rd)

Pre-SB:

Our own Troy Hill 5'10 - used in a few spots

And now here:

Horn - the stud CB

*Troy Hill - 5'10 - see above 

Dane Jackson 5'11 - outside & slot capable

*Nick Scott 5'11 - see above

Smith-Wade 5'10 - outside & slot capable

Sounds like the senior bowl is what got him drafted

i think it put him on some people's radar. Might have put him seriously on ours, but I'm sure our scouts had been aware of him for a while before that. It was his chance to get noticed and get his tape looked at.

A 5th round huge reach? You need some perspective my friend. 

Zach Sanchez is a retrospect 5th rounder to consider as the baseline. 

If we get better value than that out of Smith-Wade I'm happy.

[Jacabee]

Sounds like some Captain Munnerlyn to his game potentially. I’ll take that value and trust Evero’s assessment this late.

[Jay Roosevelt]

Sounds like a nickel to me.

[TheCandyMan]

Hey, at least he’s not a long snapper…

Looking forward to watching this kid.

Is he a dawg tho..?

He barks.   Someone with that RAS who competes on the highest levels is a dawg.

Certain people will whine about everything the Panthers do. 

It’s just kinda premature when people call our draft picks “dawgs” when in reality they’ll probably no longer be on the team in a year or two. I’m gun shy about anything this team does these days
