Top 5 Per Position - Choose two


Recommended Posts

Twelve position groups a total of 60 players.  

https://www.nfl.com/news/bucky-brooks-top-five-2021-nfl-draft-prospects-by-position-2-0

Assuming all 60 of the top players went in the first two rounds.   We have a shot at 2 of them.

Who do you choose.

If we get one of the QBs I want Lance.  If not, Surtain.

2nd Round Creed Humphrey

If we can get a QB at 8, that would be great(not Jones). If not, OT and OG in the first two rounds. Start to build a dominant OL.

The word is that this is a deep draft for OT.   I would like to have a solid center and Humphrey is a solid choice. 

But if we took a OT and Center I would be happy too.

That really depends on if other teams may be looking to move up for him, what Atlanta/Detroit think of him, etc. I don't think it'd necessarily be enormous. Hell, I don't even think it's a guarantee he goes before 8 like I used to. His stock has clearly been dropping a bit compared to the other QBs. If you told me a month or two ago that 3 QBs would go before Fields, I'd think you were a moron. Now the way things have trended, I'd be surprised if he's taken in the top 3. Jets seem locked in on Wilson and most are convinced that the Niners want Jones or Lance (could be a smokescreen but seems unlikely at this point).

 

You can't compare the Niners/Dolphins trade to any potential trade we'd make to move up. Moving up from 8 to 5, 6, or 7 is a lot different than moving up to 3 from 12...

Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance and Mac Jones have question marks too.

I have no clue who will go when. To be honest, I still think the Jets are up in the air. After Wilson’s pro day I think everyone pencilled him in at 2, but I don’t know if that was insiders or just assuming.

If It goes Lawrence, Wilson and Jones (still not sure about SF) and Atlanta doesn’t go QB, we should have a shot to move up for Fields. According to most trade charts, our 2nd would get us to 4 and our 3rd would get us to 6. Heck, the difference in value from 3 to 4 is the same as 4 to 8. We wouldn’t think about trading up until we knew the Falcons weren’t going QB. At that point I think a trade to 5 or 6 will be interesting because there are only 3 non-QBs that I think are head and shoulders in the top level, Sewell, Chase and Pitts. Maybe Parsons if you want D.

If SF does in fact take Jones, then we could probably easily get up to 5, 6 or 7 without giving up a lot. If SF doesn’t take Jones, we might have a chance at Lance or do something dumb like take Jones. Hopefully, his pro day got us completely off that ledge.

Atlanta really worries me.  I could easily see them trading back for a QB hungry team.   And they aren't letting us into that spot.   Acquire picks, screw the divisional rival that is painfully desperate for a QB, etc.

I’m honestly not as worried about trading back from 4-7. It may happen but I really do think that there’s a big drop off. 8 may end up being a good place depending on if that 4 QBs in 4 picks without Jones happens. Jones at 8 is my nightmare.

If somehow Jones goes at 3, you’ve got Chase, Sewell, Pitts and Parsons that I think are at another level from the Smith, Slater, Waddle and Surtain crew. If somehow one of the latter crew goes before 8 so much the better, but I think that because those 4 non-QBs do appear to be in another level I think that 4-7 won’t trade back.

We truly need Jones or one of the second tier to go in 3-7. If that happens we have Fields, Lance, Sewell, Pitts or Chase at 8.

The nightmare is that those 5, Wilson and Lawrence go 1-7. I think that’s highly unlikely and that we could trade up just a couple spots and still get Lance. SF/ATL sets the draft for us. With all the solid OL, including tackles in the early 2nd, it would be awesome to land a QB we love at 8.

My nightmare is chasing the QBs.

The three that have separated themselves from the pack are going 1-2-3.

I'd be happy with sitting at #8 and getting a franchise LT / matchup nightmare TE or trading down to acquire second day picks.

    • I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too! 
    • Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.
    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
