24. Carolina Panthers - Christian Kirk, WR, Texas A&M

Picks of significance:

27. New Orleans Saints - Harold Landry, OLB, Boston College

26. Atlanta Falcons - James Daniels, G/C, Iowa

7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Minkah Fitzpatrick, CB, Alabama
The most dynamic defensive player in college football this past year was Minkah Fitzpatrick. He is a safety, but can play multiple positions on the field. He is a swiss army knife at Alabama giving offensive coordinators nightmares. He truly is the total package with his size, speed, football IQ, and athletic ability. He will be a cornerstone of a defense in the NFL for many years. 

18. Seattle Seahawks - Mike Hughes, CB, UCF

1. Cleveland Browns - Sam Darnold, QB, USC
Darnold entered the season as the No. 1 pick and appears to be back on top because of his arm strength, accuracy, and mobility. However, turnovers and decision-making have become major question marks with him this year. The Browns had the most interceptions last season 28, but hopefully, for Cleveland's sake Darnold's upside is worth the risk.

Granted, I have not seen this kid play, but lack of speed from a 5'11" WR? Is that really what we want in a 1st round pick? That profile said he got open a lot on rub routes and is not an ideal down the field WR. His consistent productivity is definitely a plus, as is his ability to help in the return game.

He's no better than Curtis Samuel, I think he was just a solid college receiver not super electrifying. Being a SEC guy I watched him a lot never stood out to me. He's a second or third rounder in my opinion. Panther's defense came in as oldest in the NFL at the beginning of the year, and in the last few weeks the secondary was the worst in the league. Defensive end and safety/corner(Worley sucks) are bigger needs. The defense is whats going to carry us. Kuechly even said got to get it back to 2015 form.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
