Final Panthers Mock Draft

I can't start a new topic because I'm a little babby huddler but I wanted any and everyone to see this

 

NFL Network's Albert Breer reports the Falcons are looking to trade up from No. 8 overall in Thursday night's draft.

 

 

 

 

 

I'm cheering like hell for this, seeing them throw away potential OL and RB contributors for one pass rusher, albeit a very good one.

 

Shades of the Julio trade.

 

 

Dimitroff is a moron. He should have been gone way before Mike Smith was let go. 

 

Not complaining, though.

What do you think he does if those guys, along with the other 246ish 1st rounders, happen to be gone at 25?  Do you think he will try to trade out?

 

 

They have some guys that will be available in round 2 that they have round 1 grades on. My guess is they would choose one of those.

Really starting to Love the idea of getting Devin Smith in the 2nd (even if having to move up a little in the round to grab him). Looking at his measurables and film, he is a raw OBJ (just doesn't have OBJ's elite route running). We have the coaches to really teach these kids.

OBJ:

5'11 198

32 3/4 arms 10" hands

4.43 40 7 bp reps 38.5 vert

6.69 3 cone

Devin Smith

6'0 196

31" arms 9" hands

4.42 40 10 bp reps 39"vert

6.83 3 cone

OBJ's route running and hands are what makes him special.  Smith doesn't have either.

 

edit: not saying I wouldn't be ok with him in the 2nd, just that he's not really close to OBJ.

Actually I believe Smith has the hands and concentration. The route running is the Huge difference. As you heard Gettleman mention OBJ was one of the best route runners he's seen. while Smith, many have mentioned his route running as a weakness and really didn't have to run a wide range route tree at Ohio state.

    • Ultimately it's up to the other safety prospects to clearly outplay Scott. I think when that happens on tape against other teams it'll be addressed. I think none of them have done that definitively and consistently yet. 
    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
