WR scares me..because, you know Hurneys record for them and Cams inaccuracy for what ever reason....i.e. shty line, shty seperation, shty route design, shty mechanics.... we need a solid contributor in round 1.   I'm leaning towards DE (i get it, shty DE class) or Saftey...get a fat mean RB in the second round...LB wouldn't surprise me...TD leaving...Luke concussion shaky ...

There isn’t a single WR in this draft worth a first rounder. So with that and Hurneys track record I pray went don’t take a WR.

I guarantee there will end up being WRs taken in this draft that would've been well worth a 1st round pick. Now whether or not they're guys who actually go in the 1st we'll have to wait and see.

DE is a big need too. Especially if Peppers doesn’t come back...

I'm assuming Igo is leaving off DE because rookie DEs usually aren't instant impact players unless they're top 10 picks. Most of them take a year or two before they hit their stride in the NFL.

This is a pretty good draft for secondary talent. Especially cornerback. Would love us to strike one to help Worley and Bradberry compete and get better.

WR lack any top end stars at all, but they have very good depth in terms of 2nd-3rd rounder level guys all through and through. Could find some raw guy with good physical traits we can build on, but don't expect day one starters from this class.

Safety clearly is a need, but I haven't dived in deep to look into that.

Ironically, this is a stacked guard/center draft, and those could arguably be our more pressing needs there. Billy Price is undoubtedly someone we'll look at and wouldn't see me complaining if we picked him up.

Finally, once again we have a deep RB class. Derrius Guice by our pick would be amazing and I'd love to see him as our Stewart replacement. Nick Chubb would be a fine complementary prize otherwise, and it sounds like the Panthers like him too. Lots of solid power guys we can grab and build up for our Double Trouble 2.0.

Defensive Ends are very, very lackluster. The top guy - Bradley Chubb -  would probably only be the fifth best DE over the past two years drafts. After that, everyone I'm looking at, I wouldn't even consider them in the top half of the 2nd round. Very very thin and poor DE class unfortunately.

Defensive tackles, however, are stacked. If we feel the need for another DT, we got a whollleeee lot to choose from.

Offensive Tackles are meh.  Just a mediocre OT class this go around.

      Canes vs Canadians Gm 3 Rd 3 8pm

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I was reading through the thread seeing if someone would mention this. This is exactly what the Canes are doing and Tripp Tracy alluded to it on the Spittin Chiclets podcast when he said Taylor Hall was our Sam Bennett. The Canes and Panthers have always played identical with the main difference being Florida toes the line between physical and dirty. The Canes have stepped up the physical play this year and are inching closer to that line of physical and dirty. If I’m being honest, as a Montreal fan I wouldn’t love the fact that the Canes seem to be targeting Hutson but as a Canes fan I love it because this is what you have to do in the playoffs. Unfortunately for Montreal they aren’t an overly physical team outside of Anderson and Xhekaj; only the Avs, Stars, and Sabres average less hits per game than Canadians in the playoffs. The Canadians can still make this a series if they stop playing scared and turning the puck over simply because they are getting elite goaltending while the Canes are getting average goaltending but if the Habs continue to play with the yips and either Andersen steps up or Dobes regresses then this series could end in five.
