If Neal, Cross and Ikem are off the board.  That would mean one of the elite defense guys is still on the board.  Top safety. Top corner.   This class of defensive ends is fire. If we are trading down its likely the other team is trading up for a Defensive end or corner not a QB.  I'd take Linderbaum if no one wants to trade up.

Devin Lloyd at MLB if you want the most impactful player for a team who will change games and elevate the play of everyone on defense to a championship level.

Tyler Linderbaum if you want a franchise leader for your OL.

Drafting Devin Lloyd and Jon Ridgeway would solve the run game issues and change the defense to carry just about any offense. Both would emerge as defensive leaders.

I want offensive leaders too, but I can't pass up on Devin Lloyd.

This is my fear. I said it in another thread, but it feels like we suck and are always 1 pick from having that elite guy that fits our needs. 
 

2021 - Sewell picked by Lions 1 pick before us. 
2020 - Herbert picked by Chargers 1 pick before us. 
2019 - Christmas Wilkins picked by Miami 3 picks before us. 
 

If the top 3 OT and top 2 DE are gone, I’m picking either Corral or Linderbaum.

 

I hate the thought of us using a top 6 pick on a center. An elite center can be found in later rounds. Just see KC last year, but if he’s an All-Pro for 10+ years, no complaints here. 

I’m not huge on a QB this year either. Out of all of them, I’m highest on Corral. I think he has the “IT” factor, but I do worry about his injury history… especially behind our line. I also feel like Rhule needs to be forced to play Sam for all the stupid sh*t he’s done at the QB be position. I don’t want this regime to pick a QB because they’ve proven multiple times that they’re clueless in that realm.

I think if he’s healthy corral will go top 10. I wouldn’t be mad about that pick if we’ve addressed OL in FA.

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
