Grade the Panthers Day 2 Draft

[Captain Morgan]

I'm right around B+, A-; I'm almost completely convinced Hardy's gone and Turner makes me wonder if Silatolu isn't recovering well or if Kug's done.  Either way, we got line help and you can never have enough good linemen.

 

 

 

Getty's quote this morning said only the Amini is recovering better than Kug.  Raised my eyebrows because

while not necessarily bad, it didn't sound positive.

D. Ealy is an F, Turner is a C-.

I get your frustrations but it sounds like you are basing the draft on our needs alone when Gettleman said he won't do that. He drafts for BPA. I wasn't that high on Moses so I am not mad we did not draft him.

Trust me though I get your frustration. I think we will get a good tackle today that will ease your grade.

If Ealy is good as Gettleman hopes he will get plenty of snaps in the pass happy NFC south.

He wouldn't have drafted Manziel if he fell to us.

Yes, BPA is good, but you have to fill needs. If we can find a tackle, great. But we're basically renting Hardy for 12 million now, and our 2nd round pick will be behind Mario Addison. If we hadn't paid Hardy, we could have easily plugged 2-3 holes with starters.

B+ so far. The value we got is great, but I'm still wanting a tackle badly. Maybe we are able to pick up Antonio Richardson or Cameron Flemming in the 4th. If that happens, it'll be A+ draft for sure, regardless on what happens after.

He's not a tackle.

We need a guard too lol 

[BigBoss]

I say a B -

 

The Kony pick isn't bad, but to honestly to approach the draft thinking drafting based on need will burn you isn't completely true (Dave's words not mine).

 

Maybe DE will be a need next year, but OT and CB are really big needs this year (not to mention WR still isn't amazing). We'll see what kind of player he is.

 

He got us a bulldozer at guard, but what does that say about his opinion on the last guard he drafted? I still like the choice better than another D2 chump who get's hurt like the last two guys. Frankly everywhere on our line save center is need and it was addressed.

Easier to find guards than tackles. With that Godfrey money we could convince Wharton to stick around another year.

Ehh I guess I like the pick.. Maybe we can pick up a good RT in the 4th or 5th and then trade for Roos.

I am a little more frustrated after our draft today. My patient response last night was before we neglected tackle on Day 3 today. I don't know. I am scratching my head a little. I am hoping we can bring in Tiny Richardson from Tennessee as a UDFA.
