If we trade back I would love Kinlaw. If we stay at #7 and we pick Kinlaw over Brown I will be furious...but I’m just a sucker fan so it really doesn’t matter.

I have no insight into the Panthers brain trust's thoughts. However, I suspect that many "experts" are overvaluing Brown and undervaluing Kinlaw. Having said that, I think I will be a tad disappointed with either pick at #7. Of course, that is perfectly consistent to my feelings about this whole off season.

I think Kinlaw offers greater upside and flexibility than Brown and will not be a bit surprised if he were picked before Brown.

I don't see Kinlaw over the top two LTs or Brown, deffinate option in trade back situation.

Would like to see a taller CB. Size has been an issue with Jackson at times with NFC south receivers. I understand that would be a tall order in this draft though.

I'm falling in line with her thinking on Kinlaw. Think he is very much in play at 7. I like the draft, especially the first 3 rounds and the two Utah players on day 3, but wonder why she grabbed 2 NTs.

If we don't do something else to address DT, then we're pretty much going to be forced to throw mud at the wall and see what sticks in the draft just to be able to field a DL. Fotu in the 5th would be a huge steal IMO.

Kinlaw is an athletic freak who definitely needs developing, Brown was absolutely dominate throughout the season and showed a lot more on tape but didn’t put up as good combine numbers. I have no doubt Brown is a better prospect, but I wouldn’t be upset if we traded back to get extra picks and end up with Kinlaw. At #7 I would be thrilled with Brown, Okudah, or Simmons. One of the three should be available.

Honestly, I wouldn't have any major issues with it. Glad someone else can recognize that this roster is nowhere close to being able to actually put a DL on the field.

Don’t like not coming away with a WR. Don’t think Hennessy is worth 69, would rather have a WR even though we spent the off-season going after every FA WR so we could ignore the deepest and best WR class in forever. SMH.

I know we need interior OL but after skipping over this the past two better drafts it feels like we will force ourselves to take a. It as good one too early.

I don’t think Fotu will be there in the 5th either.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.

      Self described anti-Bryce dude wants us to fail to take a major step forward     Yeah that lines up.
