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.

      We have without question one of the worst QB rooms in the league and your key concern is people having the audacity to be talking about it lol.

      I saw this list crossing the screen waiting for any Panther.  Chubba, JC Horn and Hunt.  It was a crime to see so many that were not as good as these three.  ESPN is garbage anyhow.

      Bingo!  We are on the same page.  Our scouting department was average under Hurney, but at least we hit hit it out of the park with our first rounders.  Our scouting department under Tepper's reign with his revolving doors of HCs and GMs has sucked because the scouts largely stay in place.  One or two may change every few years, but the core philosophy stays in place and I believe that to be heavily RAS influenced.    Looking the part of a football player (physical/athletic measurables) vastly outweighs putting on the tape and deep diving into his stats with our scouting department. Until we change that mindset, this team is doomed. Again, how many of us Huddlers (none of us are professional scouts) wanted McConkey over Legette? Yet, we went with XL.  Why?  RAS score, pure and simple.  If you put on the tape and look at the numbers without taking RAS into account, McConkey was the clear choice.
