Gettlemen presser thread

[XClown1986]

I wouldn't rule out a trade down in round 1. The question that was posed about teams below us calling about a trade made Gettleman giggle like a school girl. He wouldn't answer of course, but it seems that anytime he gets struck by a question enough to laugh, he has a "tell" there. 

Ideally I think Gettleman wants to trade down for another top 100 pick and package some picks together to move up our positions and STILL take 4 players in the 1st 3 rounds. Just at higher slots of course. 

Gettleman really stressed the fact that this draft is deep and that we like having more picks. So this is not a case of trying to get quality over quantity it seems. It looks like quality and quantity can line up, at least in the early rounds.

They really like both RBs at 8, of course they like Fournette more but I wouldnt be surprised by McCaffrey at 8.

I wouldn't be surprised if double dipped

???? If we did double dip... what two pair would you like to see.

To me the most telling part was about the DEs. There's not much of a drop off after Garret and Thomas. To me sounds like a DE with the 2nd pick.

My guess is that we take 1 RB, 1 DE, and 2 DB's with the first four picks. WR will have to wait another year. The depth at those positions is too good and we certainly need more youth and speed at those positions.

 

Almost makes me wish we traded out of the 1st round last year to pick up a 1st this year. This draft seems really great compared to other drafts.

In before Malik Hooker/Obi double dip.

Igo's been saying Fournette's higher on their board but this pretty much confirms it for me. They dismissed the concerns about McCaffrey when grilled but they're going out of their way to do it for Leonard. Getting the impression that they're being loose lipped because it'll be nice menu at 8 no matter what.

No way in hell we are taking any CBs 

DEs in the mid round 

TE in 2nd and 3rd

From what I gather it looks like offense will take a backseat again. Cam will be stuck struggling with poor talent and aging vets around him. Hopefully I am wrong but it looks like CB, DE, S, RB first 3 rounds.

I was thinking something similar. The wildcard here is whether or not Njoku falls in round 1 and they think enough of him to go get him. 

I really think they want to walk away with a combination of:

McCaffrey/Fournette

Howard/Njoku

DB

DE

But of course if Njoku gets picked earlier than expected, it didn't seem to me that Gettleman was too thrilled with the TE class as a whole. "Lots of flavors" as he puts it. But not many guys that have everything they are wanting. 

[DelhommesTheMan]

I've been looking at mocks, and they are criminally under drafting QBs in the top 7. I agree with Beane, and I really do believe the Panthers will have choice of a few great guys be it Adams, Fournette, Solomon or Hooker. McCaffrey is just not on the level of any of these 4.

Drafting ANY form of talent on offense or defense, helps Cam. How many years did Peyton waste putting up ridiculous numbers because he had to because his defense couldn't stop a highschool team from scoring? Not to mention that Peyton didn't win Superbowl 50, his defense did.

I really like the UNC RBs and would not at all be opposed to a double dip. Fournette/Logan or McCaffrey/Hood.
