Detroit would move Slater to RT. 

Maybe Cincy takes Slater and Detroit values someone else more than drafted Sewell and moving him to RT...

I fear the Bengals more than I do the Lions, but both are possibilities.

To me, they should be focusing on Sewell or Slater now with pick 8.  If, somehow, Fields drops to 8 they really have to think long and hard about it.  I doubt he is, but....

Our QB depth chart has been one layer deep for 2 or 3 seasons now.  As of this second, we have Darnold and TB.  Even if that sticks, TB is gone after this next season, if not sooner.  Either way, it would give us the luxury of checking out Darnold for a while and if he is fool's gold, Fields comes in later in the season, after some time to acclimate.

If Fields wins the job but Darnold did not stink up the joint, Darnold can be traded for something downstream, or simply left to find other opportunities when his rookie deal expires.  Or maybe he sticks around as the backup.

The move certainly gives us some options. 

But barring that, I am drafting the beef at #8.  After that, I am looking at more beef on the interior OL, DT, CBs, maybe a TE, and WR depth, in the order that the available talent presents itself.

Sounds like there is little chance Teddy lasts past June 1st.

You have to think the Bengals are a 100% lock to take a tackle. 

Had the media not fallen in love with Sewell so long ago, Slater would be getting a lot more attention right now. If Slater is there at 8, I’m sprinting the card to the podium

The wild card with the Bengals is that Joe Burrow is reportedly pushing hard for Chase, who in all likelihood will be available with their pick.

My response to that is "Dude, you got snapped in half last year and you want a receiver? Yikes!"

But I'm not him, so...

It’s Slater or Sewell. If both are gone you trade back. Hopefully Denver stays at 9 and Washington or New England want to move up.

My trade back target is Darrisaw.

Jaycee Horn is awfully tempting but you have to give Darnold a LT. You traded for him in hopes of turning around his career. He needs a LT to have a shot at that

I'm a Darrisaw stan, and I'm not 100% ready to hand him LT day one here. He might be the guy, but feel a lot better putting Moton at LT to start camp and see if Darrisaw unseats him. VT didn't run a pro offense and I have issues gauging his readiness as a pass blocker and hold up on the blind side. Now as a run blocker, he's ready, just a little more urgency to flowing thru to the 2nd and 3rd level from what I've seen would do him good. Though that could also be scheme/coaching that has him ensure his lane is cleared before he goes to the next level.

 

Another option would be chase Orlando Brown. That make for a nice pair with Moton.  Now 8 straight up for Brown is a non starter but we have the highest overall to give in a pick package if the ravens send picks with brown. They can go get the cheaper RT replacement of slater for Brown if they wish.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
