Carlos Dunlap

I wouldnt mind us getting him. I would prefer us getting a WR first then if he is there with the next pick then we should get him. WR is our biggest need now that we have re-signed Brayton. We have three defensive ends that can start, I would say we need one more for insurance purposes but wide reciever should be our #1 priority.

in my humble opinion, the WR class this year is super deep and if in the second round, the one or two guys that we have been eyeing are no longer there, draft the best player available in one of the other positions of need if they are ranked higher on their overall board. there will be plenty of good receivers in the third. that is where we got smitty after all...

WR class is deep but not particularly stellar. there just isn't a whole lot of separation between talent. what you get in the 3rd or 4th round won't be a whole lot of drop-off from what you get in the 1st or 2nd.

dunlap can be a beast but he has motivational issues. there are other players i would rather have that don't have those issues and that haven't been found passed out in his car in the middle of an intersection just before the biggest game of the year.

we just got rid of one headcase and i'd rather not replace him with another.

Do teams really set up smoke screens for 2nd round picks...?

I was just messing around.

It's not that I disagree that "smokescreening" takes place, but most on the Huddle seem to think that the Panthers aren't interested in any of the athletes they've been linked to so far -- that all of these workouts and meetings are just to make teams think we're interested.

Hell, we're also smokescreening Armanti Edwards, and he'll go much later.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
