Round 3 - The Carolina Panthers Select DJ Johnson - EDGE - Oregon

[ClawOn]

Too many of you were intrigued by Levis at 1 for me to be interested in your round 3 LB takes 

[Ricky Spanish]

This feels like a hurney pick.

God damn it. This is a “raw” 25 year old….those two don’t go together

A first round grade LB in Simpson is on the board and you trade UP to get a 25 year old LB

Clearly there is a reason Simpson is still on the board despite his "first round grade"

[ForJimmy]

What I read says he is projected to be a better pro than college player.

we traded up..while the "pick is in", the Carolina Hurricanes scored in OT to win the series in the 1st round of the playoffs .. simul Itaneously 

 

that's gotta mean something

is he better than Amare Barno?

Different - 30 pounds heavier and runs a 4.45 40.  Straight up bully.  Seems we wanted to add size.  He may not play much this year, but we certainly needed some bigger depth. 

[pantherj]

He's not good at getting sacks, and he's not stronger than YGM. So basically we traded up for YGM's backup. Dumb.

2nd best TE on our roster 

this was confusing me when i was finding highlight videos. did this guy actually also play TE or did Oregon also have a TE named DJ Johnson?

Just because he was a first round grade for Mel Kiper doesn't mean he was for apparently 32 NFL teams. 

Multiple outlets had him as an end of 1st round grade. You don’t need to trade up for a 25 year old rookie, he’ll be too old to even warrant a second contract

This is the downside of the Seattle draft strategy. Taking "their guy" whenever they feel like they need to, regardless of value or cost. We burned a ton of draft capital last year doing this to grab Corral. And now we're doing it again for a random edge.
