Ranking the Panthers' NFL draft priorities by position

1. Defensive end

The Panthers took a big gamble last season by not drafting an edge rusher, instead putting faith in Kony Ealy that he’d build on his remarkable Super Bowl performance and blossom into a Pro Bowl caliber defensive end.

That didn’t happen, and so Carolina has been set back at arguably the most important position on defense. You simply can’t have too many good edge defenders in today’s NFL.

Fortunately, this is a deep class of them and the Panthers can find dynamic players in several rounds. While a lot of people are predicting they’ll use their No. 8 overall pick on a defensive end (or even trade up to No. 2) to get one, it may be a smarter move to hold off and wait to pick one or two in the middle rounds, given how deep this class is at the position. That would give Carolina more flexibility to plug some of the other holes on their roster.

2. Wide receiver

3. Running back

4. Offensive tackle

Can't believe you have OC at the top of your list, anyone who knows anything about offense knows Shula is the mother-fuggin GOAT!!!

Well... maybe not

DE can't be the highest need for this year anyway. From a long term perspective? I suppose . But immediately in terms of this season, I don't see how you'd put it at #1 unless we're not getting any production out of a pretty good rotation of veteran DEs.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
