Hypothetical: if Clowney falls to Atlanta

I don't think so, we really shouldn't reach to build our team based on what others are doing to build theirs.

ETA: Having said that, if BPA at 28 is an OT/OG then yeah we should pick them regardless.

No to OG in the first. Especially when we have about 5 coming back from injury. Would be stupid. Especially with the needs we have. Always go BPA at positions of need

No, we need OT regardless at some point. If we get a 2nd and 4th for Hardy, we could use one of our two 2nds on Tiny Richardson, who held his own quite well against Clowney while at UT. I don't want in the 1st but with two 2nds it'd be very enticing. Just a thought.

Doubtful there's an elite OT available at #28. If there is, of course we should consider him. It'd be crazy of us not to considering our roster. Most everyone agrees that our biggest needs are WR, OT, and CB. If an elite player is available at the bottom of the 1st when you're on the clock, you'd be crazy NKT to seriously consider him.

Clowney will not fall that far. I'm sure we will end up with a good tackle anyways. This draft is loaded with great ones. It's one of our biggest needs and gettleman knows that. He will get us one. Not worried one tiny bit

It's actually not that far/out of the question. Atlanta is selecting 6 th, with QB needy teams selecting before them. Couple that with elite players like Greg Robinson and Jake Matthews, it's very possible Clowney is there at 6.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
