Dalvin Cook or Jamal Adams in the 1st?

Seems like the two best options that will be available when we pick. At present not sure who I want more. Usually against taking RBs in the 1st but Cook has an enticing combination of size and speed. Then again, appears the draft is deep with RBs and could probably pick up a nice one in the 2nd.

DALVIN. I think he will ball out at the Combine and you'll see Fornette fall off. Dalvin is still better. He fits our philosophy well. However, he got in some trouble his Freshman year which may push him away from us. But he's the next Marshawn Lynch. Plus Benjamin is here, so that could be a good sign.

Every time I see someone talk about drafting a running back I literally shake my fuging head. Complete waste of a pick when you have an o line currently struggling to run block. CAP is a lot better than he gets credit for and Stewart shouldn't be going anywhere yet. Waste of a damn pick

Good lord you are clueless aren't you?

You're Dalvin Cook, aren't you?

FSU has a beast line and Cook has open field speed.

He isn't a punisher, a finisher, nor does he have good vision.

Some team will take him way too early, and 5 years later you'll forget about him.

I really wouldn't mind Cooks at all but right now I think Safety is a bigger need. Jamal Adams will fit what the Panthers will want do on defense now and the future. You need a premier Safety in this league look at Giants with Landon Collins who leads the league with picks. I really thought Collins be the pick here instead of Shaq Thompson but I love Shaq. You can also look at Chiefs with Eric Berry, Seahawks with Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor, and look at Vikings with Harrison Smith who Jamal Adams reminds me of. Some analysts says he can be a big time playmaker like Tyrann Mathieu.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      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.
