2021 Carolina Panthers Thread - Time for the 2022 thread

OK- finally! his pro day results sound great. his ESPN profile says he has short arms for an OT- that sounds bad.

How many guys have we had over the years that “will be better suited to right tackle at the next level.”

Well they were right about Daryl Williams and Taylor Moton.

Yeah, not saying they were wrong. I’m sure there are probably only about 3 guys per year that project as a LT. It just sucks that there seemed to be a lot of legit LT’s in this draft, and we got none of them.

Hopefully we got the steal we presumably were looking for.

Exactly. A legit LT is very special and a veteran should be one of the highest paid players on the team. LT is QB insurance. The Panthers took Gross in the 1st years ago and have taken the position for granted ever since.

Those sorts of critiques always sound kind of bad to me at first, but then it’s like what are his arms like 1/2” shorter than another guys? It’s not like we’re rolling a T-Rex out there.

Yeah. It's one of those things you assume has some analytics behind it but it could easily be superstition.

There goes Hunter Long. Of course, we didn’t take the obvious OT in the 2nd, so who knows who we are actually looking at with these picks.
 
New GM wants to flood the roster with his guys.
 
Was really hoping we’d get Long. Easy to second guess not taking him earlier, presuming the OT we drafted would have still been on the board.
 
A sleeper pass catching TE? I thought we already had Ian Thomas
 
Ha, the way they're talking about him, it sounds like we may have found our LT as a TE. Just a road grater.

I hope he's good, but it sure seems like we may have gotten punked out of the TE's we wanted. But at least we're addressing needs.

Tommy Tremble projects as an F-tight end in the NFL—a flex weapon that will be best served in an offense that doesn’t charge him with playing with his hand in the dirt. Tremble is a plus athlete who offers the long speed and agility to be dynamic as a pass-catcher, but his production to this point has yet to make the leap that you’d want to see to feel confident that he’s going to develop into an upper-level tight end at some point. Tremble has spent his career at Notre Dame caught behind the likes of Cole Kmet and 2020 freshman star Michael Mayer; he’s been the TE2 who is charged with moving around the set or blocking on the perimeter to set up runs and screens to the outside. Tremble’s potential is significant and his effort as a role player has been admirable, so you’ll feel fairly good that Tremble has the right makeup to stick as a developmental player while working himself into a more prominent role as he continues to mature.

Feels like every pick has been us just missing out on who we actually wanted, starting with Sewell last night
 
Not really feeling his profile. "Not a lot of catches" "Needs to work on pass catching" "Project" "Needs to eliminate those drops" "Is he one-dimensional right now? He is." "Wants to be known as more than just a blocker."

I feel like we just drafted a guy who could be the next Armah or Manhertz when we could have just kept one of them. We picked up a backup TE in the 3rd round. The whole TE depth chart is projects.

Exactly. Was getting ready to post the same sort of thing. We’re waiting and hoping guys last to where we graded them. Then they don’t and we get caught shocked like that pick felt like. I guess I hope there’s more strategy than that. Look forward to guitardeacs breakdown/debrief

Yeah. Ah let’s trade down, he’ll be there. Then whoever we want gets taken a few pics before.
