Its kinda not panthers related but its the offseason? Now the Rams had the 23rd pick , we pick 24th, but now the Patriots have the 23rd pick and the 31st pick. I think it is related to us, because its likely the Patriots may draft someone else that the Rams might not have drafted at the slot right before ours and could greatly affect who we pick. 

 

What do you think about that trade? The Rams are continuing to go for broke signing all these free agents, are they trying to emulate the Eagles? They signed Marcus Peters, Aqub Talib,  N.Suh , and now Brandon Cooks. But I guess they did lose Sammy Watkins.

What a bad, short-sighted trade.  I guess if they win a Super Bowl it won't matter, but that is a lot of egos in 1 locker-room.  Especially since they weren't on the team last year.  Plus, Cooks is on the last year of his deal and considering he will be the top 2019 FA WR (Beckham ain't hitting the market), there is no way they will be able to re-sign him.

Rams have a lot of egos on their team. Curious to see if they make it deep in the playoffs or crash and burn.

Good trade for the Pats. I think Cooks is a good receiver, but getting a 1st and a 6th for him is good. I think the Pats go LT with that 1st round pick.

And Jared Goff and Sean McVay dont seem to have a super commanding personality to manage all these alpha dogs .. they'll have to hope they are well behaved I suppose

Have a feeling Pats will trade both of their 1st round picks for Odell

CBS' Jason La Canfora reports the Patriots' trade of Brandin Cooks to the Rams is "not a precursor to an attempt" to acquire Odell Beckham.

The Patriots now own the No. 23 and 31 picks, leading many to connect the dots on Twitter. The Patriots still have a solid stable of weapons, but many injury question marks. Beckham would be a dream addition for Tom Brady and Bill Belichick's offense, but the most likely outcome remains him staying in New York.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
