Panthers will be heavily interested in the position.  Especially with three of their top corners all set to become free agents after 2 seasons (Bradberry, Cockrell, Seymour).  You can take a look at what scouts are saying about how the CB board is shaping up here:

Quick Summary Here:

-8 CBs expected to be off the board by the middle of Round 2

1. Denzel Ward, OSU (Hands down)

2. Josh Jackson, Iowa

3. Jaire Alexander, Louisville (Combine riser; 2nd on some teams boards)

-Next 5: Mike Hughes (UCF), Isaiah Oliver (Colorado), Carlton Davis (Auburn), Donte Jackson (LSU), Rashaan Gaulden (Tennessee)

-Quenton Meeks (Stanford) & JC Jackson (Maryland) both expected to be selected on second day of draft.

Before the combine the board looked like this:

Last thing we need is for yall to grab another stud. This is why i dont mind addressing the position early, and i hope we can get the best guy from this draft.

 

The Saints have done a good job with the draft last year. And seem to be building their defense which is smart. We are going to have to improve our offense to compensate.  And put more emphasis on our secondary.

what, suck for 3 years, have one good season, cash in a huge check and vanish on his next team?

So you wake up salty as well? Norman didn't cash a huge check here. Gettleman pulled out the rug and wouldn't negotiate after Norman dumped his crappy agent.

I would be good with Oliver, however I would prefer either Josh Jackson or Jaire Alexander. I think either of the two become our number 1 CB this year. Then let the others battle it out for the number 2 spot. Then have two positional guys to step in and give the 1 and 2 a breather.

The only consensus among the CBs seems to be Ward as the first.  After that it seems to widely vary amount the next 5 or so.  Some people have Hughes in the top 3.  I've seen Jackson anywhere from 2nd to 5th. 

Teams seem to like different types of CBs so it makes it harder to predict the order they will come off the board.  If teams 2, 3 and 4 all like press type corners then a zone type might fall, or if team 2 likes zone he might go early.
