Interesting for sure, I think I remember him saying if he could go back he’d tear every ligament in his knee to jump on that ball. I get where he is coming from on this, most people, especially social media, won’t take this well. -
I think, at 8, there will be a player someone covets. These top teams have few needs, so they might package a first and second and maybe a future pick to move up to take a player they covet. Gonna think out loud here for a second-- Offensive tackle--I went to a site (randomly) that lists team needs in prioritized order. ELEVEN teams list OT as a priority. (Ravens, Browns, Bears, Jets, Niners, Seahawks, Bucs, Chiefs, Packers, Commanders, Patriots, Rams). IMO there are 2 elite OT prospects and probably 4 to 5 with first round grades. I see Sanders and Ward (QB), Hunter (CB), Carter (Edge) and Johnson (CB) going in the top 7--Graham or TMac are probably likely to go next. The Jets pick 7 and will not be picking a QB. They will probably take OT Will Campbell. At that time, there is one elite OT left and ELEVEN teams that need an OT. Granted, some will address this need in free agency, but how many starting OTs are available? Now, consider you are the Chiefs, Seahawks, Packers, Bucs, or Ravens. They have little to no cap space, so grabbing a stud OT in free agency is unlikely and there are not any. You also realize that 10 or so picking before you need an OT. Once the Jets take an OT---the Panther phones will be ringing--teams will target Kelvin Banks, OT Texas. If they wait, they could hope that Josh Simmons (Ohio State) falls to them, but they are unlikely to wait for the unlikely. So the Panthers will have to ask themselves, "Would I take the Commanders' first and second and the 2026 second rounder for our first rounder?" We do not have a second rounder in 2026. We'd pick 29th and 61st in 2025. That would give the Panthers 3 picks in the first 61 picks. So who might be there? Let's say that Graham (DE Michigan) is available at #8. Most say "No brainer." But the Phone rings offering you two second rounders to move back 21 spots in round 1. You have a lot of needs. What could you get? Estimates, based on Player Rankings: 27. Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon 57. (from Rams--not part of trade) Donovan Ezeiruaku, Edge, Boston College 61. Maxwell Hairston, CB Kentucky (assuming Mike Jackson leaves--Hairston has been eye opening at the SR Bowl practices) So basically, to give up on Graham, you get a good CB and a good DT and a future second rounder in a draft in which you had no second round. -
Except bryce did absolutely nothing at all accept show up with a lot of forced weight and back pack/ hoodie. No physical activity till his pro day.
