It seems most believe if we are lucky one of the 2 fall to us. However, what if both make it to 8. Who's your choice and why? Votes are not public so vote freely. 

Here's a mock to show how it could potentially happen.

  1. Browns: Garrett -BPA
  2. 49ers: Tribusky - Need a long term answer at QB and can ease him in behind Hoyer.
  3. Bears: Allen - It's John Fox. He will go D-line here. They run a 3-4 now and Allen is the perfect fit to go opposite Ayers 
  4. JaguarsHooker - Look at their defensive depth chart. http://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchart/JAX . Adding Hooker to the mix could make them deadly and cause nightmares for Luck,Mariotta, and Romo? (or whoever else the Texans end up with) in the AFC South. 
  5. Titans: Corey Davis - Titan's need a WR to pair with Rishard Matthews. They previously had interest in Cooks so clearly WR is a need.
  6. Jets: Deshaun Watson- Easiest position on team to upgrade so they have to pick between him and Kizer. 
  7. Chargers: Soloman Thomas. Would be so easy to mock Hooker here but he's gone.
  8. Panthers: Adams or Fournette?

Edit: Every snap of both players broken down by game that you can watch in minutes.

I know the Huddle loves Adams, but I'm taking Fournette. I think Adams can be a very good pro safety, but I think Fournette can be a generational type talent and we have to do a better job of surrounding our franchise QB with talent.

Both "Blue Gooses" as Gettleman would call them in my opinion. But yea, I'm staying consistent and sticking to Fournette.

Fournette

 

 

 

Like LinvilGorge said, I think he's a generational type back that fits our overall scheme as a team.

 

run the football, play defense, control the clock..

 

as long as our passrush is there, we don't need super talented guys back there, just guys with modest ball skills and tackling who are where they are supposed to be. Dependable

I would take Adams, mainly because I disagree that Fournette is a "generational talent".

I think he is an outstanding, talented running back.

Is he an AP? Barry Sanders?  Bo Jackson?  No, I don't think so.

I think he's more of a Leveon Bell who is more talented as a runner but less talented as a receiver.

I honestly would like Adams or even Hooker.  Fournette I just don't trust to be used to his full potential by our offensive staff.

If we draft Fournette and Shula can't utilize him that would be the nail in his coffin. Thats coming from a guy who doesn't hate Shula.

We don't even have a damn fullback for LF to run behind. We did nothing this offseason to prep for a guy like Fournette. 

I think LF would have a much bigger impact than Adams year 1 but there are many good backs in this draft as well. Tough question.

Fournette and it's not even close. We need TDs and someone to drag this offense down the field and make things easier on Cam, not just a better safety. You must be kidding. We need a monster racing down the field with the pill, not a safety giving us a little better coverage. God in heaven. Gettleman will trip over his own gut racing to the podium to draft Fournette over Adams.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
