I know it's early, but man, we are in no mans land at 7.

Go Jets

Not really.  Read about the 49ers/Bears game if you don't think they're taking QBs.  The Browns about have to take one as well.  7 isn't 5 but one of the studs at a position of need will be there.  Obviously would love to have the pick of the litter at 5 and that would about require losing out.  We have the cushion to win one and still pick 7.

Agree to disagree on Barnett.  If you believe Walter Football and multiple other mocks this week he won't even be available at 7.  IMO no man's land is 10-20, salt in the wound to this nightmare season.  Hoping for 5 but would still be very happy with a win over the Falcons and 7.

Garrett will be gone

Barnett is not worth 7 and neither is Cam Robinson.  Don't want to take another CB.

Possibly the S from Michigan would work

Ability needs to match the pick

Peppers is not a great Safety. Jamal Adams from LSU however is a baller. I really like Barnett. Barnett, Adams, and Cook are on my wish list if our position holds.

about every single mock draft has us picking another CB too. That is the last thing any panther fan wants lol after a draft with 3 fuging CBs in it. I hope we don't waste any picks on CBs, Bradberry is good and Worley could be solid given time and any sembelance of a pass rush . The only defensive picks I want to see out of this draft are at Saftey and Defensive End. Get a great pass rushing DE and a promising Saftey and the defense will be totally different. Spend all the other picks  on offense to help your franchise QB out for a fuging change.

This OT class sucks. Do I like Cam Rob? Yes, but not enough to take him top 10. If we could somehow get lucky and trade down into the 11-15, then yes take him there. 

Some have said that Barnett is the best pass rusher in this draft. It's hard to say. As of right now with the 7th pick or even top 10, I'm not sure I would feel confident enough to take him. DE is a huge need for us however. I don't see Barnett being as good of a prospect as Vic Beasley. And, he went 8th overall, 2nd pass rusher in a pretty damn good draft. 

If we stay in the top 10, (I'm taking Fournette out of this bc I believe he'll go top5) I think it'll be between a safety like Jamal Adams or the best available corner. If all the projected guys do enter this draft, it'll be a cornerback heavy draft. A bunch of talents there. There are about 5 Cbs right now that I would take easily in the top 10 with full confidence. I know we have Bradberry and Worley, but that nickel position is important too. I like Johnson but he could be upgraded. Denver and NYG secondaries ain't too bad.

I don't mind a corner. Id like to upgrade the nickel. You gotta have about 4 corners in today's NFL. Those guys projected to come out are pretty solid corners.

The Jets are clearly our biggest threat as far as landing Leonard Fournette, who is my favorite prospect considering the lack of top quality OT's available this year. If he's gone, I like Jamal Adams, the safety from LSU.

Peppers from Michigan is a little too much of a tweener for me, TBH, but we took Shaq in the 1st round, so you never know.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
