Trade up for a Safety in round 2?

While that’s tempting, I think Reid, Harrison, or Bates will fall. I want to leave tonight with  a safety, a CB, and maybe a OL stud. 

I think that would be a solid first two days. 

 

Still very worried about what happens if Olsen gets hurt though. Panthers don't have another NFL caliber TE on the roster.

I think carolina trades up but doesnt have to trade up as far as they think.  I think they sit and watch until 1 or 2 of their targets come off the board, then they make a move.

Yeah, I can't see a 15 place jump, too expensive. Thinking 5 spots. A trade twinkie to satisfy Hurney's craving.

What I want tonight is some combo of Jackson, Oliver and Reid.  If we get one of those corners and Reid, I will immediately declare this the best ever draft we've had picks 1-3.

I'm a bit worried all 3 of those guys will be gone in the first 10 picks though.

I would be really pleased trading up for a starting safety. This is the range where we might expect Harrison and Reid to represent good value much better than the mid-twenties.

 However if we could somehow get Josh Jackson I would be ecstatic. This is a guy who was top 15 pre-mock. Unlikely but I dare to dream.

If I’m Hurney I’m keeping the picks I have and taking Bates, Reid, Hernandez if he makes it. I’m then contacting the Ravens to see if they’d take a late round pick for Maxx Williams. Not sure what has happened to that guy but he was every bit the TE talk of the draft that Hayden Hurst was and they just took Hurst in rd 1 signaling Williams may be done in BALT.

    • I'll say 6. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition and will do more to help the defense than anyone. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole there. For all the hype surrounding Sanders and Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
    • 2010 was worse. Not much worse but worse. 
    • Lol since 2017 the Panthers are 47-85,    Also since 2017 the Giants are 40-91-1   Lol
