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.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Good Lord this board has become a cesspool of negativity and where fandom becomes something twisted and unrecognizable.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.
