Interesting. Potential second round CB prospect?

I definitely like how Rivera is looking over all potential options.

[Daddy Uncle]

He is not being lazy that's for sure. He is doing all of his homework

[MHS831]

I read he has stiff hips and might project to S. No link--no time. I want Josh Robinson, Chase Minnefield (2nd) more.

I think we have plenty of nickel, dime, and ST conerbacks. It's the position with the most depth on the entire defense. It just needs another starter. Don't need anything else there....unless we're planning to trade Munnerlyn.

It will be interesting to see who we go with in the second round. All these guys we know about them interviewing will not be around in the 4th.

[DaCityKats]

i like Josh Robinson better but would not oppose to Tru.

This is one of my Sleepers. 6'2 corner with some awesome ball skills (converted receiver). He has a ton of potential and would make an ideal #2. If nothing else RR is a hell of a lot better then Fox at picking what talent to scout.

I am liking some smaller school CBs this year.

it is.very deep pool, with lots of talent.

I don't think Safety is a priority but I would love to have one in the second round. Sherrod Martin had some really embarassing plays last year. We were burned in the passing game on a weekly basis any help is welcome. What I would really like is someone that can match up with the big athletic Tight Ends like Gronk and Jimmy Graham. A healthy Thomas Davis might be that guy.

Not a huge fan of Johnson. Would rather have Gilmore.

That is why we brought in Haruki Nakamura.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Also like others have said Johnson is more of a nickel back to safety if anything and if we are looking at a player like that, then we should look no further than Tramain Thomas out of Arkansas. He is a turnover machine.

[BigBeast52]

Big shutdown corner with ball skills, why not in the second round

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

Cause he is not second round worthy, that's why. He grades out as the 11th best cornerback in the draft behind...

1. Morris Claiborne
2. Dre Kirkpatrick
3. Stephen Gilmore
4. Janoris Jenkins
5. Alfonzo Dennard
6. Jayron Hosley
7. Josh Robinson
8. Jamell Flemming
9. Brandon Boykin (injured)
10. Dwight Bentley
THEN
11. Trumaine Johnson

Johnson is third round material, no need to reach for him with a second round pick that is essentially a late first round pick.
