Interesting mock draft

Just seen this mock draft and thought it was interesting from the players the panthers are looking at.

http://www.mockdrafthq.com/2015/03/panthers-mock-draft-of-the-future.html

1. Panthers: Ereck Flowers OT Miami

The O-line should be completely recreated going into next season. The biggest change will come at LT. Flowers should be able to slip right in as a day 1 starter. Other Options- La’el Collins(if he falls), Ty Sombrallio, TJ Clemmings

2. Panthers: Rashad Greene WR Florida State

Not only does he have a past relationship with fellow receiver Kelvin Benjamin, but he also has something Benjamin doesn’t, great hands. He catches everything, and it is suprising when he doesn’t. Other Options- Justin Hardy(very, very close second), Jay Ajayi, Cedric Ogubehi

3. Panthers: Laken Tomlinson OG Duke

A great player and even better person. He should be able to step in with Turner immediately to make the o-line really good. Other Options- Tre Jackson, Jalen Collins, Ifo Ekpre-Olomu

4. Panthers: Byron Jones CB Connecticut

The CBs are something that can definitely be improved. Norman is becoming really good and Benwikere looks good, but the need some more help. Other Options- Cody Riggs, Quandre Diggs, Damian Swann

5. Panthers: Jamison Crowder WR Duke

He has that burner speed needed in Carolina along with KR/PR ability that is also very much needed. Other Options- Antwan Goodley, Austin Hill, Rob Havenstein

6. Panthers: Sean Hickey OT Syracuse

Continue building the o-line, or at least adding depth to it. Other Options- Tayo Fabuleje, Tyrus Thompson, Eric Lefeld

7. Panthers: Kyshoen Jarrett S Virginia Tech

Secondary wanted. Other Options- Nick Marshall, Eric Dargan, Justin Coleman

This guy better not say this to Norwell.

Norwell angry.

Norwell crush.

My boy Greene up in the second. Wouldn't be upset with it but don't think our oline needs this much attention.

Figured you'd like that, given your thread.

Guy who wrote it seems to be a Broncos fan. Doubt he's that well informed when it comes to us

Overall somewhat decent draft though.

I definitely wouldn't want to spend a 3rd on a guard considering how well Norwell played unless Gettleman thinks Tomlinson is a lock as an all-pro guard.  If he's head and shoulders the BPA, then you kinda gotta pull the trigger, but I'd hope for something else.

 

If Byron Jones is still available in the 4th, that's a steal.  That's a no-brainer. 

 

Crowder has "burner speed"?  Since when?

I would be pretty surprised to see us use a decent pick on a guard.  We've got two young guys penciled in to start and another couple of guys who should provide decent depth.  I could see us picking up a guard late perhaps, but thats about it.

    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
