Jamarr chase at 8?

[RIPTreyLance]

Hear me out. I know we never invest in left tackles and this is a prime opportunity to do so, but if Kyle pitts and Penei Sewell are gone, would anyone really be MAD about picking Chase? By all accounts he's the best prospect we've seen since julio. 

Can you truly be mad taking Julio Jones at 8?

I for one wouldn't but Zod might want to stand by the server for a meltdown if we chose a WR at 8. 

I said earlier if Pitts and Sewell are gone at 8.  Trade down with a team that wants a QB because most likely if those two are off the board there is going to be a QB at 8.

Also. Joe Brady had Jamarr at LSU.. could imagine he's halfway pounding the table for him if Pitts or Sewell aren't there

not a chance in hell we draft a WR at 8 with our crappy OL and already having Moore and Robby. 

i mean, maybe if Chase was some 6'5 Megatron clone, but he aint. 

[Memphis]

If he pans out in the NFL and is a game changer every single year. Sure no prob. Though I would prefer Slater in this scenario. Not sure how elite Surtain really is.

[Aussie Tank]

The Bengals and us would be fools to pass up on a franchise LT for a WR

If you're willing to take Pitts at #8 you should be willing to take a WR at #8.

Both WR are up for contracts and the best prospect in 10 years is in this draft. I doubt he makes it to 8 but if he’s there I can’t see us passing...

I think we will take Pitts or a WR and not a T, but I want a T.

According to Verge, there is a strong possibility we draft a WR--Waddle is the name she mentions repeatedly--And I agree with the OL comment--but here is how they might be looking at it:

We have addressed it by signing Scott and Erv at LT, Elfein at LG, Miller at RG, Tagging Moton.

I do not like Erv and Elf, but they seem to or they would not have offered multi-year contracts on the first day of tampering at about 8:30 AM

You can win a SB without Julio Jones.  It's pretty hard to win one without a high quality OT.  See Mahomes, Patrick.  Newton, Cameron.

Picking your brain.  What makes you think we won't go LT?  (Curious not insulting)

You don't think Slater is worthy of this pick?  Some say he's better than Sewell.

WR IMO is a luxury pick, something we really can't afford if we plan on contending soon.   I think with the trade of Darnold the best thing we can do is put a good O-line in front of him.

I think that we take Sewell if he is there.

I think Sewell is the guy if he is on the board, and we could take Slater if Sewell is gone or not--not sure--but there are a few factors that opened my eyes, Dave.  And I am with you--I want a LT.

However, Verge has some inside info--a scout (or something) for a team that is fairly in step with what Carolina is thinking--they have a pretty reliable grapevine, I would imagine.  She says Carolina wants a weapon.  And (see Unicar post) Moore and Anderson could be on the final years of contracts--we shall see how we like them.  However, I think they see Waddle as the KR/PR/Slot that can break games open....I did not have WRs on my Panther board in the first round.  I think it was Aussie who said we could get R. Moore in the second round after the T in the first.  Good points.

And finally, I think THEY THINK they have addressed the OL---we shall see.
