Tony Pauline: people in league circles believe that the #Panthers will select LT Charles Cross

the safe pick is  LT. If they take a chance on a QB at 6 and it doesn't work, it would set the team back even further. If they take a solid LT, even dropping a couple of slots and get one, they are primed for a QB pick, trade or signing next year to put them over the hump and into the playoffs. That O-line would even make Sam look good this year.

IF they go with Cross or any non QB, then the Panthers will probably make a play for Jimmy G, Baker M, or Gardner M. 

I doubt they do this.  Their positioning before the draft screams QB, but who knows?

Our remaining 2 major holes are QB and LT Fitterer will make a move prior to the draft to solve one of these two.

I’ve said it before. A lot of the fan+media hype train has driven up Ekwonu when he’s actually quite sloppy. Penning and Cross may indeed be ahead of him on team boards. Doesn’t make him bad or anything. Ekwonu is a top talent, but the team scout reality is different than this top-6 assumption for him and Neal.

Penning?? I think you are going to see that definitely isn't true.

Cross perhaps but not Penning.

Probably not the player we drafted.

That's what I was thinking. Everyone was going in another direction. A couple days before the draft I had a feeling it was going to be one of the top corners, even though I and everyone else wanted OL or QB. 

But they know what they're doing, right?

    • lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.
    • I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.  
    • As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
