Daniel Jeremiah’s . Final draft

I can see some arguments but Wharton’s contract is what sticks out to me on the DL with Brown and Robinson in tact. Especially with bringing Brown II as NT. Unless Evero can pull off a 6 man rotation (counting Clowney going hands in dirt on sub packages)

That Wharton contract is the move that could impact us in the future, hamstrung further by adding an IDL R1 contract, but it doesn’t seem to be stopping us. We must be comfortable with the potential dead cap that would come from this type of overinvestment to assure something works out in the front 7.

I wonder what the numbers are to move on from Robinson if we take DLine early

Dead cap this year is rough, even post J1. But I’m sure they understand/Tillis has that scenario mapped out—at least I’d hope so… the Wharton contract is heavy for how we’d deploy him no matter how you squeeze it with Robinson or not.

Cap sites show the savings matches the dead cap around $5 mil if we cut Robinson post-June 1. So it’s either viewed as addition by subtraction or you keep him on the team until 2026 for what he can bring.  He’s not bad…but at the same time has been hit/miss (and a few times pretty bad last year with the reserves next to him). Was one of the better guys at his spot league-wide when he was in NYC.

i honestly do not think we (Panthers) have many irreplaceable players on this team right now .& they should just simply keep drafting BPA each & every round &so what if you have two really good players that play the same position that is a good problem to have since you now have someone you can trade for even more draft picks

there is one thing for certain you cannot play or trade a bust all you can do is at some point cut your losses & if Mason Graham is BPA at #8 ; then that's who the  Panthers should most defenitely draft  ...just saying

I've seen a lot of media people having Graham falling all the sudden on their mocks the past day or so.  Not sure where that's coming from.  If he's there at 8 run to grab him.

One show I saw say there was something about him but they didn't elaborate.

I believe Star was 8 as well.

Our interior DL would be dominate. 

If Graham is everything they say. With him and Brown collapsing the pocket it will open things up for Clowney and the rest of our edge rushers.

    • The Lions are not in a “forward thinking” mode right now, they are in a win a Super Bowl THIS season mode. I’m from the Detroit area, you don’t understand how much this city is starving for a Super Bowl, they don’t care about the future right now, they care about maximizing their window right now, this season. You also say it’s the last chance to get something good, but that’s nonsense, this is a 24 year old with legitimate Top 15 WR potential.  Teams were lined up to trade high draft picks for Higgins or Garrett Wilson if either came available, both of whom would need brand new big contracts.  If Williams improves and plays 17 games next year while staying out of trouble, he’s would basically be in the same situation as Higgins the last 2 years, except with a higher potential ceiling and the 5th year option instead of back to back tags because he was a 2nd rounder. Which is why if the Lions didn’t have concerns about him, they exercise the 5th year option and keep him this year. Because if he has the expected season, he’s 100% bringing back a 1st rounder next year as a 25 year old not even reaching his prime yet, or they keep him for one year on a bargain bin value contract for the production. Thats why if the Lions are the ones looking to move him, it’s a huge red flag that they have serious concerns about him or they are looking for at least a 1st rounder this year, which is then a super hard pass.
    • The 6-foot-2, 245-pounder is too undersized to be a base edge rusher in the NFL, so he will have to be a linebacker who rotates to rush off the edge in the subpackage. I was watching Locked On Panthers yesterday and M. Kaye from the Charlotte Observer made some pretty good comments on why we shouldn't take Walker.  1. Is he's undersized to be a full time Edge player.  2. Rookies don't start for an Evero team 3. You don't take a tweener at 8. If we take him I hope they define what his role will be. His situation reminds me so much of Jeremy Chinn. It's going to suck if we waste a pick on Walker when we could have had a true edge or DT plus an extra pick.
