Doesn’t matter. We have a problem at no. 2 corner and it needs to be fixed now. We can’t assume Donte will be fully healed, and while I like Henderson and think he’s improving, with a frequently injured Jayce Horn, Henderson at CB 1 and our current back ups won’t cut it in the playoffs. We can’t John Fox scheme our way out with mediocre CB talent in this day and age. Team with the best CBs are going to be in it at the end. Most sacks are now coverage sacks. Go get the coverage. 

We can easily find a number 2 CB in the second round or later.

We don’t have any problems at CB except injury.  We are paying Donte good money and he is fine.  We have plenty of stock in CB already.  This is a silly argument when the offense clearly must improve this offseason.

Yes, but Gonzales and Porter are on a different level. We’d have two CB 1s.

Neither player is as good as the guys on the roster.  Stop trying to be clever.  
 

Witherspoon is a great talent but we need offensive players right now.

I’m not trying to be clever. I’m a loser who does mock draft simulations 30 times a day, and if we stay at 9 and Tyree Wilson is gone along with a QB we like, the best talent available id Gonzales, Porter Jr. and OTs, and while I’m not against drafting Broderick Jones and sticking him at guard and letting him be our swing tackle, I think the smart move is to strengthen your defense in the years to come with shut down cornerbacks. Our new D-coordinator has said that most sacks now are coverage sacks. Get the coverage and the sacks will come.

    • He makes a good point about Wallace.  In fairness to Wallace it is hard to play your position as freely as you need to when your defensive line is getting pushed around like ragdolls.  One of the greatest attributes a defensive line has is sucking up blocks, freeing up your linebackers.  Our defensive line couldn't suck up a lollipop more or less blocks.  I think Evans, Sanders and Tremble are going to be a really nice TE group.  I can see all three getting time on the field.  If Sanders can improve as a blocker teams won't be so inclined to believe it is a pass play whenever Sanders is on the field.  Ryan Fitzgerald, I think was an awesome pick-up. Hopefully he can fill our kicker void. Luke Kandra many turn out to be our next Norwell.  Everything I have heard about him says he's a beast.  He needs some refinement, but the good news is he's got Hunt and Lewis (arguably the best guard tandem in the league) to learn from. 
    • Great teams build through the draft and have several young players that start that are on rookie contracts. It's important to hit on players in rounds 4 thru 7.  These should be future starters and solid depth.  When you hit on most of your picks you free up a lot of cap space for those one- or two-year players to fill spots you are thin at. No GM is going to perfect on all their picks.  You're going to whiff every once in a while.  That was Hurney problem.  He'd nail the first pick but after that it was reach after reach and we couldn't get any depth on this team. I'm excited about Morgan as our GM and hopefully he'll be around a long time.  It will be even better if Canales can continue to grow as a head coach, both in the development of young players and play calling. I remember last season after Young came back in the lineup and started to perform well.  We saw different plays I had only seen other teams use.   If Canales's play design and play calling continue to grow. Morgan and Canales will be linked together for a long time.  It would be nice to see a Coach and GM together for a decade or two. Go Panthers
