KPs Players to Watch

I just edited this post for fun to see where guys went. A bunch of guys went higher than I expected. All edits in bold.

I'm not big on mocking picks until the week of the draft when all the information is out there. I do have a list of player I'll take special interest in as this draft season kicks off with the Senior Bowl.

Manti Te'o (not really for Panthers but obvious other reasons) - 2nd Round, 38th overall

Johnathan Hankins DT Ohio St. - 2nd Round, 49th overall

Eric Fisher OT Central Michigan - 1st Round, 1st overall

Eric Reid S LSU - 1st Round, 18th overall

Ezekiel Ansah DE BYU - 1st Round, 5th overall

DJ Fluker OT Alabama - 1st Round, 11th overall

Margus Hunt DE SMU - 2nd Round, 53rd overall

DJ Swearinger S South Carolina - 2nd Round, 57th overall

John Jenkins DT Georgia - 3rd Round, 82nd overall

Ricky Wagner OT Wisconsin - 5th Round, 168th overall

Desmond Trufant CB Washington - 1st Round, 22nd overall

Robert Lester S Alabama - Undrafted Free Agent

Montori Hughes DT Tenn-Martin - 5th Round, 139th overall

Kenjon Barner RB Oregon - 6th Round, 182nd overall, Drafted by the Panthers!

Brad Wing P LSU - Undrafted Free Agent

These are guys I want to follow. Some of them I know well. Others I never heard of but they intrigue me.

Not a bad list. I think some of these guys have been written off already due to our draft position but it is a good list except for the kicker guy. I don't really bother looking at them as it is a waste of time. I could go into a lengthy dissertation regarding this but it would be a waste of time and give undue insight to kickers in the draft.

    • he averaged 2 yards in YAC per reception last year.  He can't generate quick separation.  He was debating retirement last year.    Yet we champion him as some great option.    AT is a savvy vet we force feed the ball too......on a team starved for basic offense the last couple seasons.  We overrated AT.  Which is why some freak when people like JT on his podcast point out the painfully obvious about him.   
    • The Athletic has us ranked 28th on their post-draft power rankings, mainly due to us picking T-Mc instead of defense in round 1. They recognize we needed WR help, but... https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6317651/2025/04/29/nfl-power-rankings-post-draft-rookies-eagles-chiefs-bills/
    • I mean, he is a slot technician.  That's what he does.  So, in a good offense, you would be trotting him out there on 3rd downs and situationally.....to not take what they give him but to move chains.  It's a niche.  AT hasn't threatened defenses in years.  Last time we saw Renfrow on the field he averaged..... 6 yards YAC per catch.  Adam Thielen last year averaged....2 yards in YAC per catch last year.  I still contend in reality, AT isn't a slot WR.  Not in reality.  He is an aging rec TE.  And those aren't the same thing.  AT simply can't generate quick separation or provide YAC.
