I wouldn't really call Pitts a TE.    I'd ball him a big ass WR you ask to block sometimes. 

OK.

I don't want a big bodied WR that you ask to block sometimes as the number 8 selection in the draft.

How many touches per game do you think we could get him to?  6?

Nah, give me a T that plays, and impacts every single offensive snap.

He runs a 4.4 and has the biggest wingspan we have seen in decades.  I'd say he would impact every snap.  Who is going to cover that if he is lined up at the TE spot?

I'm not here to play 20 questions with you.

Just telling you that I want no part of a TE in the top ten...of pretty much any draft...until we are "a piece away", and we ain't that.  We have a lot of holes, and some of those holes are at much more important than TE....to ME.

You can want whomever you like, end of the day, Robby, CMC, and DJ gotta get theirs, and I prefer to keep the QB upright more so than give him another weapon.

generally I would agree.  

but Pitts is just too freaky IMO to pass on him for some guy that fits a need.  Pitts is one of the top 3 players in this draft.   And isn't your standard first round TE prospect.

What if Robby or DJ are not in the long term plans and they see Pitts as a guy that will be? Pitts and CMC could be a very versatile and lethal duo for years.🤷‍♂️

Sewell. 

I can’t count the times since Gross retired that I’ve said “we need to address the line.” 
 

I really like the QBs. But I also think that Mond or even Jamie Newman could have very good careers and probably don’t cost a top 10 pick. Apart from Lawrence I don’t see any of them as sure things. Especially without addressing obvious holes.

So my ideal draft would be: 

1st - Sewell

2nd - Mond

3rd - Grant

I see "this guy is such a physically insane matchup nightmare that whichever team drafts him is guaranteed a Super Bowl" players on pretty much an annual basis.

Some years later I see those same guys retire with no rings.

Yeah I’ve thought about that too. I assume we keep DJ but even if we plan on keeping him...without Samuel if DJ gets hurt we get pretty thin as far as receiving options. 
 

But there is just such a huge talent gap imo between the top OTs and 2nd round compared to the top WRs and guys found on day 2.

My preferred option is OT at 8. As others have said, the Panthers have thrown whatever at the Oline for years without putting top talent into it and it is past time they addressed that issue. That said, I'll be happy with Pitts or Chase at 8 if both Sewell and Slater are gone.

Sewell 

Slater 

Pitts 

Trade down..

I equate Sam and Fields similar not a big fan of either but Sam is here and has a more talented arm.  Give him protection and weapons.. Build the wall on both sides of the line and the wins will come...

      Youth pastor. Lol. But yep. There is something about Canales that I can’t my finger on, but it is probably that he is a bit like a televangelist and I am not entirely sure the facade is real. But I am a cynic basically, anyway.  His football resume is good enough for me. We’ll see how the season goes.  I do agree with the Morgan/Canales team. There is a lot of synergy, and I think they can Stay on the same page too. I mean, right now they are aligned, but will that last? I think so. Obviously there would need to be some success involved for that to happen but these two are the best things have been since we were taken over by that carpetbagger.

      Draft Day 2: Look Ahead/Targets

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Who do y'all got? Some rumblings... If we stay put at 39, I can see us going the DB Tampa/Sainistril or LB Colson/Cooper/Wilson routes.  Maybe Marshawn Kneeland at EDGE.  A double dip at WR could be fun - McConkey or Franklin would be interesting guys to compliment Legette.  Don't be surprised if we invest higher than you'd like at RB today (Benson, Wright, Brooks) A presser takeaway - If we're looking for guys to fill roles as Canales described, I think both Wash products in Polk & McMillan would be strong options remaining in this draft that would compliment the WR room we're building.  Can play X, Z, slide inside, do a bit of everything.  Brenden Rice & Javon Baker are two notables with X potential at 65 or later And if we're looking for life after Thielen/not sure about Mingo, I would NOT discount Roman Wilson, Malik Wash, or Corley. Gut leans DB or LB, but won't be surprised if it's a double dip.

      Why do I still have this feeling that Washington got the best qb last night?  I will have to monitor that situation up there. I can't explain it it, it's just a gut feeling.  It could also be gas.
