We don't need to Draft a TE!


Recommended Posts

I seen a lot of mocks with a TE at 8th? Panthers Fan here from day 1, 95! I feel like we do need a RB! I don't like the DE pick either when we lead the league in sacks! Finished 2nd in league with 48 an 49 was the best! So RB or CB is the tire need here! I'm happy we got back CAP41, still a need in that CB position! We had the worst secondary in the NFL! An I offense struggled to get anything going we need a explosive player on offense! What do y'all think?

Corner is not that big of a need. The secondary was bad at the start of the year, but both Worely and Bradberry came into their own, and with the changes made this off season they will be even better.

Captain in at nickel, which we play a majority of the time, is going to be huge.

Adams at strong safety is a ball hawk, and will allow Coleman to move back to free safety where he had 10 ints a season ago. 

I think, RB, or WR is a bigger need, although I do agree that pick 8 is high for a WR this year.

IF you go by value alone, DE will be BPA. 

IF you believe offense over defense for whatever reason, then there is no way you can discredit the talent and impact Howard would have. Fournette is talented and will have big impact also, but in a draft that is so deep at RB, the BPA probably tilts toward Howard.

i think you try and draft an impact player in the first no matter the position.  imagine if the panthers didn't take Kuechly at 9 because they already had Beason. I think gettleman will draft whoever he thinks can make an immediate impact and will be a game changer .  what he has done in FA tells me that he's set the team up to take BPA at 8.  we'll see

To be fair, it is a very deep TE class as well. Lots of talent at the position with still be available with or seconds or comp. in the 3rd.

    • Personally I think he's a nightmare to cover I think linebackers generally aren't fast enough to keep up with him in coverage and cornerbacks don't have the strength to tackle him one-on-one in physically bring them down which would normally lead to a broken tackle or a nasty stiff arm or just bully ball play sure you could find a receiver with comparable speed like Cooper but he's faster than Cooper sure you can find a wide receiver that is the same size but he's probably More powerful than them and a better blocker.  The size speed athleticism package that he is in is completely unique it's easier to say I'd rather have just a big blocker because we've never seen this type of profile before I'm a risk taker I think you would be God blessed if this was there at 19 I think if you can get a guy that's a tight end who immediately becomes the fastest guy on your offense and at the same time that third wide receiver that can stretch and burn defenses over the top that's the perfect what the Panthers need type weapon.
    • I think you're under selling Sadiq. They are two different players in terms of how they win. Loveland is 2 inches taller maybe 5-6 pounds heavier. Comparing his speed to sadiq.. well your comparing a 4.7 guy to a 4.3 guy I'm seeing a guy that can take a bubble screen from the tight end position and turn it into a house call. I'm not saying the guy is a certified home run pick but I don't think there's really a president's for a comparison for this kind of athlete. It's easy to say this doesn't look like Warren or Loveland because we haven't seen guys that fit this profile The closest you might be able to get is Vernon Davis.  He's not as sure far as those guys were but at 19 I think almost everybody is going to have some warts and he's a lottery ticket of could be top 10 in the draft player or could fail I am more of a risk taker I think he fits the athletic profile that could be a homerun, like I said he's almost 40 lb bigger than Cooper and like 4-5 in taller than Cooper so and he's faster. So whatever you think Cooper gives you I think he does that and more. If you want to go with one of the office alignment I can understand that as well but for value as a receiving threat I don't think there's a bigger value at number 19.
