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.

    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.  
    • They will still be a playoff team but they aren't contenders anymore IMO. They won't be able to spend like they have when they went to a SB and proved he couldn't carry a win at that level with a really good team around him. Now he is going to have to do it with less to spend around him. They just locked in to being a playoff bound team that's going to be a known speed bump for whoever will represent the NFC in the SB.
    • Hmm. I think he'll live up to it. Last year, about half of his team was on IR it seems, at one time or another. Year before, Super Bowl appearance. Year before that, playoff run after being third on the depth chart and being pressed into service. Is he one of the greatest in the game right now? Nope. No chance of that. Is he in the top 10 going into next season? Pretty good chance of that.  Would 20 or more teams in this league love to have the guy as their starting QB. Most likely so. He's a good QB who can implement his coach's game plan to a T and has both the confidence of and confidence in his teammates. That'll take you a long way in this league if you've got the right cast around you, and he does.
