I fear they will have to take a wr early on day 2 if there's a run on them on day 1. You know how we fair with 2nd round picks and I think the best will be picked by round 3.

Another Panther’s 2nd round WR pick?

It's that or a 3rd round TE. The TE from The U is an option in the 3rd if he makes it that far.

Demetrius Knight is a steal at this point. He is flying under the radar but Luke Kuechly and Mike Rucker voluntarily brought him up in their interviews with the Panthers. He is smart, instinctive, and violent. There is a lot of chatter of Jalon Walker possibly being considered at 4 with Patriots and Jaguars at 5. If those teams are considering him at that high in the draft, we shouldn't complain picking him up at 8. Teams who interviewed Walker says his football IQ is equivalent to a defensive coordinator. I would be thrilled with Walker.

If we get Jarquez with that pick, it will be an absolute steal.

Link to the full mock

Panthers' selections:

• 1.8 - Jalon Walker, LB/EDGE, Georgia
• 2.57 - TJ Sanders, DT, South Carolina
• 3.74 - Jack Bech, WR, TCU
• 4.111 - Billy Bowman Jr, S, Oklahoma
• 4.114 - Dorian Strong, CB, Virginia Tech
• 5.140 - Demetrius Knight Jr, LB, South Carolina
• 5.146 - Caleb Rogers, G, Texas Tech
• 5.163 - Jarquez Hunter, RB, Auburn

Don't love the first three, but the back half is strong, imo.

That Brooks over Zack Frazier pick still stings. Grabbing a RB who isn’t going to play much in year 1 (before he got hurt again) makes no sense with the loaded 2025 RB draft. There’s so much talent that we’ll see some solid day 3 RBs. Not just surprises like 2024’s day 3 RBs but a few that would be day 2 picks every other year like Brooks.

now what if I told you we traded up for him in the process burning 2 5th round picks?

Arroyo. I would LOVE to get him. Or Fannin Jr.

The problem I have is even if you remove hindsight, it was just a fuging bad pick at the time too. Weak RB class, not at all BPA, injury issues.....no bueno.

I've seen worse.

I love Bech. A guy with some speed that can actually catch the ball.

E brown is probably a bit worse, maybe the armanti but the Brooks one is still fuging putrid simply because we traded up (sticking it to Dallas, insert Special Ed "YAY") for a dude with a shredded knee.  Thats a damn near a fireable offense IMO

I am with you here.  That dude could be a steal
