Big Board at #8?

Recommended Posts

What's your big board looking like at #8 with the recent moves and news that the first 3 picks will be Lawrence, Wilson, and Jones?

Do you have Fields and Lance at the top? Sewell or Slater ahead of either? Maybe secondary help in the form of Farley or Surtain II? What about grabbing a shiny new weapon in Pitts or a Bama WR?

If we end up going CB, give me JayCee Horn...I don’t know why he somehow defaulted to 3rd best CB...he’s gunna be a force for a longgggg time

Horrendous. Horn is a mediocre athlete that belongs in the second or third round, not the first, and certainly not a top 10 pick. That would be an F- pick for the Panthers.

 

As for the big board top 8, penciling in the top 3:

 

1. Lawrence 

2. Wilson 

3. Jones

 

------

4. Fields

5. Sewell

6. Slater

7. Pitts

8. Chase

 

Parsons would be next man up.

Because he's not a good QB and is at least a year away. Wasting the cheap years of a rookie QB with a shitty veteran in front of him is stupid, particularly for a team like Carolina that is going to need more than a game manager to be successful next year.

If no quarterback I would be fine with trading down but more picks don't always guarantee anything looking at the Seahawks drafts.

Staying at 8 based on who we believe will be available Fields/Lance 1a/1b followed by Pitts/Chase and the top OT available. I may find myself in the minority but taking a tackle top 10 is my least favorite scenario in this draft. Multiple reasons for that but this could be the last top 10 pick we see for a bit if we are content at just being mediocre enough to stay middle of the pack and I would rather add more passing weapons to the offense if we can't get a fresh signal caller.

Horn worries me.  As bad as the Gamecocks were and all the places opponents could attack them....teams didn’t seem to try to avoid Horn.

Horn is a super great athlete. 

don’t know if he is a great corner.   Opponents didn’t seem that worried about him IMO the little I watched him.

Wrong. I think he'll struggle with NFL-level WRs because his best attribute is being grabby/disrupting WRs at the LOS. His make-up speed is not special, which is concerning for a guy you are going to have to deploy a lot in press man coverage.

    • It will be really interesting to see how both sides handle this. I'm sure the team would love to get him signed to a 4 year deal based on his output so far and some potential factored in, i.e. something like a 4 year $30 million contract.  But I could see his agent telling him the best path is to take the one year offer, put up a big year next year and then really cash in. The team also has to keep in mind T-Mac's 2nd contract, which likely will happen after the 2027 season assuming he keeps improving as expected.  Even if we could get him on a budget 4 year deal for what he could become, the problem then becomes when he wants to re-negotiate in 2 years during the same summer we will extend T-Mac, and you don't want to spend that much on WRs in one offseason, just see the Bengals this last year. Taking everything into consideration, I'm thinking the 1 year deal and then getting him to sign a 4-5 year deal after hopefully say a 800ish yard season next year might be best for our cap situation and separate his and T-Mac's negotiation periods.
    • And yet jax made it no further than we did, and its very possible the Pats don't either. I think it speaks more to the overall down year for the nfl as far as having great/dominant teams, every team this year has fatal flaws that can be exploited 
    • Ehhh I agree the nfc is stronger this year but their really werent any truly dominant teams this year everyone is flawed, I think the narrative for the NFL this year will to try ahd force a Josh Allen SB win
