Not likely to get Scherff, Stanley or Peat ... but Flowers and Collins are possibilities. Biggest dropoff will be rds 2 & 3.

i think one of those top three are actually a possibility at 21. It's not going to be like the past few years where there's multiple LTs in the top 5 or 10. The LTs this year aren't anywhere near the prospects that the past few drafts have had, and even those prospects haven't been doing well in the NFL.

That's the only reason i really wanted a top 10 pick was to take advantage of rounds 2 and 3

I feel like a top round 3 pick for gettlemen is a mid 2nd round pick in value

some OTs that could be available, are Flowers, Collins, Ogbuhei/ Stanley maybe, Clemmings, Sambrailo.

 

some DBs  Waynes, Peters,  Jalen Collins.

 

don't really see the panthers taking another WR in the first, unless its a top guy like Cooper.

 

pass rusher could be there as well. Fowler, Dupree, could get looked at as well.

Agree with most of this.  I wouldn't be particularly thrilled with any of those DBs in the 1st, but I could see it happening.  Only DB I'd really want in the 1st is a strong SS candidate but I'm much more inclined to go with an OT, a top WR prospect or a very safe DE.

There should a few guys there, even that fit needs as a bonus. The talent isn't that big of drop off form 13ish to 21st, but that could change in a few months. If a few underclassmen forgo, that could make the talent drop off even smaller.

I hate to bring this up, but the best value at 21 could/should be DL. Annnnnnd we all know what dave will do....... prepare yourself cause that's what I believe will happen.

 i wouldn't mind Landon Collins, SS from Bama but he should be gone before 21. all the other DBs that will have a 1st round grade will most likely be CBs. OT would be the preference, and i just don't see the panthers going WR again in the 1st.

Yea, I don't either unless there's a guy that fits what we need (quick, good route runner type with good hands).  With Norman and Bene indisputably playing at least solid (some disagree on the extent of their rise to prominence) I think it would be a misuse of resources to spend an early pick (1st or 2nd) on a CB.  If we're picking in the playoff team range, I think our best value meets need pick would likely be OT.  Mid to low 1st seems to be where the top OTs of this draft are shuffling out.  I'm hoping for something like when the Pats got their LT (I forget his name) at the end of the 1st.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
