The proverbial "don't get caught grabbing something from the fridge during kickoff" player. 65 career kickoff returns, six career return touchdowns.

With the 200th pick, the Carolina Panthers select:

Barion Brown, WR, LSU

Carolina makes back to back selections of defensive team leaders.

The Panthers select:

Michael Taaffe, S, Texas

Wormed by an hourglass that drained unreasonably quick, Carolina recovers to go pure BPA. The Alpha of the roughest defense in the MAC this past season, he also led all of college football in Sacks and TFLs.

The Carolina Panthers select:

Nadame Tucker, DL, Western Michigan

Athletic, well built and from a university with a great offensive line pedigree. This guy looks like a sleeper for this class.

With the 119th pick, the Carolina Panthers select:

Jude Bowry, OT, Boston College

The Panthers are ecstatic to find Agent 0 still on the board in the middle of the 3rd, because he's a match for Carolina's zone heavy scheme on D. This player needs to start at nickelback right away and will be encouraged by the coaches to play aggressively like he did for the Hurricanes. With the 8...

Nice pick @ommegosh

Kyle Louis profiles like a quality NFL linebacker.

Was wishing to sneak him into my draft later after people slept on him because of size.

Cultural turnover is needed, so as many fresh faces in camp as possible makes sense to me.

Carolina's pseudo GM is pro Bryce Young, but also has sticker shock looking at the C2 market value for a starting QB. Spare capital permitting, we would have gone back into the first round to get the additional 5th year option for this player, but still find an excellent long term fit, whether circu...

Timmay's weeping tears of joy. Jorvorskie's just weeping.

Carolina improved its run defense this past season, but it only had one way to go. There's still room for improvement, and this athlete looks ready to contribute in that area immediately. His potential as a pass rusher is the upside-down Corona in your margarita. With the 19th pick, the Carolina Pan...

Couple of ideas Kubiak as HC with Flores as DC Shula or Minter as HC with McCarthy or Scheelhaase as OC Scheelhaase at HC with Flores as DC and McCarthy as OC I also threw out hiring a Defensive guy like Shula and going to get Hoosiers OC Shanahan to pair with him. Couple of young innovative coache...

Freiermuth sensing the urgency. Acrobatic catch.

Gainwell!

JPJ is having himself a game against their #1 WR.

Fautanu just mirrored the Texans defensive end and then let him get by to force the fumble. Awful play from a guy who has otherwise played acceptably this season.

Nice hands from Adam Thielen.

Get a stop already

Get a touchdown !

Steelers pass rush in the QB's head.

If Austin III had kept running that might have been perfect.

Players turn and look like that all the time - doesn't draw a false start flag.

Things are not looking good.

Gonna need another dumb Houston turnover.

Maybe a fumble.

An interception will work!

Wow, not sure about punting there. Time for a first, a spike and a long FG.

Houston chickened out.

Payton Wilson with a STICK in the flat!

Thielen with the fourth down conversion catch

Have to pay this turnover off. Get a TD.

Houston QB just whiffed on the snap.

WHY-yay BLACK!

Outstanding read by Herbig on the screen to Collins.

Good drive. Take the 3 points.
