How would you feel if we draft a WR , RB, or TE with pick 24?

[Pantha-kun]

Lets just say that we didnt trade up in this senario. In a somewhat surprising move, the Ravens pick up Courtland Sutton instead of Ridley . Most of the picks in front of us are crazy trade ups for  QBs, Darnold, Rosen , Allen, Mayfield , Jackson , and Rudolph all go before us , and other teams picking up the prime defensive talent pushes alot of top offensive prospects down to us. 

So imagine we are sitting at 24 with say almost all the WRS ( Ridley, Moore, Kirk ) , all the RBs not named Barkley , and no TEs have been drafted.  Would you be okay with drafting one of those 3 , a RB, or a TE?  

I think Id be perfect. Use our first pick for offense and go defense for most of the rest of the draft . For example , players available in the most recent sim I did : 

Offense : 

• DJ Moore , Calvin Ridley, Christian Kirk, 
• Darrius Guice, Ronald Jones, Sony Michel
• Gesicki, Andrews, Goedert, Hurst
• Connor William, Billy Price, Will Hernandez

Defense: 

• Marcus Davenport, Josh Sweat , Sam Hubbard
• Josh Jackson , Carlton Davis, Mike Huges
• Ronnie Harrison, Jessie Bates , Marcus Allen

I think in a situation like this, the offensive talent is tipping the scales massively. I dont see any defensive players worthy of R1 besides maybe Davenport, and I'm leery of the DEs in this draft not named Bradley Chubb. I'd select Ridley here. 

In this senario I would take Ridley. What would you do? Would you feel comfortable with offense pick in general? Or would you reach for defense b/c our secondary is so bad? Im thinking we could also massively gut some team trying to trade up for Ridley or Moore in this senario.

I would be ok with a receiver, but if we get a running back, he better be a good one.  I like CMC, but the new running back needs to be ram it up the middle and move the pile type of player, unless we get a lot more innovative on offense.

I read Guice don't fit our system so he won't be the pick, and if they get a wr I see it being Rd 3. So I'm going to say CB or TE

[jumpman910]

One things almost certain, if DJ Moore is on the board he's more than likely the pick. 

[Pantha-kun]

Heres my full draft from the above sim : 

R1: Calvin Ridley (WR)

 R2 : Carlton Davis (CB)

R3:  Deshon Elliot (S)

R3 : Duke Ejiofor (DE)

R5 : Josh Adams (RB) 

R6 : Trey Marshall (S)

R7 : Riley Furgeson (QB)

R7 : Grant Haley (CB) 

[Joe the Show]

as long as Rivera is our coach, our best chance at winning it all is to have a stellar year on defense.  I trust Cam and Norv can keep the offense afloat this season.  I would love to see us put together a secondary to compliment the front seven for once.  I would take the best DB available.

[BigSyke]

Hughes, Alexander, Moore, Isiah Wynn, Ridley or Reid might be the picks.

[LinvilleGorge]

WR? Awesome!

TE? Meh... 

RB? Fug!

[panther4life]

Ridley is the dream pick for panthers at this point. We’d have to trade up if we want him and that’s not gonna happen.

[Fright]

To the Ridley fans... what picks would you be willing to give up to move up and grab him?

[poorboysrev]

Yeah I'm saying Moore all the way, just looks like the kind of receiver we are missing...have CMC and it's not like Cap has been given enough reps to know what we have in him...can take a rb I just wouldn't do it before round 3..tight end..if the receivers/secondary we like are gone I'd be ok with it...it's not like we haven't lost games because Dickson had a tendency (obviously couple exceptions) to not catch wide open touchdowns/first downs

[RumHam]

all tight ends are a reach in the first. I'd trade up for barkley if somehow he falls to 10. still think we trade up if we are in win now mode.

Another first round rb? Why?
