Shipley could be had in the 2nd round and I seriously doubt since his performance in the National Championship game he falls to the 3rd round.

If Jarrett can duplicate his last game in a whole season. He could take Moose's spot. I think with his size he could be as good if not better than Moose. The fear is, his last game was a one hit wonder. If not, Moose still has one season left in him.

What Shipley could do for this team. A Slot receiver is that runs great routes. That would cause all sorts of troubles with a defensive back field.

With our running game play action pass would really create some problems for most teams.

Add Barnidge running the seam. How in the world would any defense be able to focus strictly on the running game.

IMO SHIPLEY should be our First pick. NO DOUBT.

Go Panthers

I don't know why anyone would dismiss Shipley out of hand. I think Shipley is going to be a solid receiver in the NFL. He seems like a smart kid that runs great routes. Now whether we'd want to take a chance on him when we need help at other positions, I don't know.

I think that a lot of teams may kick themselves if they don't pick him up, but the second round...?

I admit I don't watch much College Ball. I did watch some of Texas Vs. Alabama though and Shipley looked pretty decent. I'll have to start reading up on prospects soon.

You and me both, the offseason has come which means my time to become obsessed with the 2010 NFL draft class is also upon me.

we still need a burner. smitty ain't got it anymore....at least not for long.

I won't bring in a rookie and say that to his face. :D

I do agree that we need to start grooming some speed to replace Smitty one day but 2010 isn't the year. I think we need to look for someone who can come in and compliment him. Shipley is the only polished receiver I have seen (though that isn't much) coming out of college who IMO could start in the slot.

Obviously you will wait until Moose is in a walker before you will move on.

I think with a QB that has some confidence in Jarrett and a slot guy like Shipley our passing game will be enough for the running game to flourish.

Go Panthers

i conquer. moose may have another good year left in him, but i think it's time to give jarrett a chance. with moore pitchin' the ball around, jarrett, smith and shipley would be one hell of a receiving corps.

      I think you've nailed what we need right here.  Rodriguez and Thieneman would be my choices, Thieneman in the first and Rodriguez in the second. Let everyone else eat up their picks on the crop of WRs and linemen. Then make a push in free agency for the top center.

      Vernon Gholston vibes?  had 14 sacks at Ohio State in 2007; 45 games in the NFL:  0 sacks.

      I want a high impact player, but a true FS who could qb the secondary might be more effective than we realize.  I don't think Moehrig is that guy (I think he is overpaid, however).  I want a flashy, high impact player, but we could use defensive qbs at ILB  and FS.  By upgrading skill AND adding vision and leadership, could we get better than if we added an edge or OT? I am not sure that I believe this myself, but I try to look at things from all perspectives.  Here is some devil's advocacy stuff: 1. EDGE-We are freaking out about the pressure we put on the qb from the edge position.  However, Jones II and Wonnum missed a total of 22 games. Scourton was a rookie and Princely was a third rounder.  Wharton sucked (not sure if he was used properly--a hybrid who can rush from the 5 tech or 3, etc), and this put more pressure on Scourton and the other edge players.  This year, we get Jones II, Scourton should continue to evolve with Princely.  Perhaps another rookie is not what we need.  Maybe a veteran situational pass rusher.  2. OFFENSIVE TACKLE:  Of course, we need an OT, but the draft is loaded with OTs that can pass block but struggle in run blocking--so a rookie at LT might not be the answer for a team that wants to run first.  What to do?  I am not sure.  I see Nijman returning after testing the market, but who knows? 3.  INSIDE LB:  A huge need, regardless of how you spin it.  However, I see a few free agents who would be solid here, and I see the second round having a few ILBs with starting potential.  I do not see an ILB worth the first round pick unless a freak falls to us. 4.  With veteran defensive backs, a young, intelligent FS could fit in nicely. Intelligence is key--like the way Luke made the front 7 better. "A good, intelligent free safety (FS) acts as the "quarterback of the defense" transforming a unit from good to great by acting as the last line of defense, communicating pre-snap adjustments, and anticipating plays before they happen. By reading the quarterback's eyes and diagnosing offensive schemes, an intelligent FS acts as a "centerfielder" who can neutralize deep threats and mitigate errors made by cornerbacks or linebackers."
