Athletic Mock Person one if Falcons take QB and one if they don’t

No to Pitts. We need to trade down and add as many picks we can if we don’t get a QB. 

I see this said all the time and it's still not realistic.

Who is going to trade up and why?  You only go up that high if you're chasing a QB.  If there's a QB there, we're taking him.  If not, there is nothing to attract offers.  Trading down is a scenario generated by other teams, not by the Panthers.

If they were to draft Pitts, my hope would be for them to announce him as a WR.

I’m not saying he can’t play TE but he’s at his best when he’s lined up out wide. He’s a crazy special talent and at his size with his speed/footwork/route running he would be a dominate day 1 WR

I’m not sure if Slater will be a NFL tackle. I love his long arms but I think he’s a guard at the next level. 

Seems like these are the exact kind of guys who have been slipping down draft boards for the last 20 years and end up making the best NFL OTs. If Jordan Gross was to measure in today, everyone would be screaming he's an OG.

I'll take a elite feet with slightly subpar height and length over ideal high and length with subpar feet all day everyday.

    • I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best 
    • I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.
    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
