Would you risk early pick on Peyton Wilson?

In my view, there are not many ILBs in this draft. 

We know that we need an impact player at WR---after that, I am not sure what our biggest need is--TE?  C? LB?  CB? 

After adding 3 Edge players in free agency, I do not see us adding another.  Not really sure about DL.  Does the new kickoff rule impact anything?  This is very difficult

Not at 33. I'd still be scared at 39, but would be cautiously optimistic/thrilled to have him. If he stays healthy, he's one of the steals of the draft and a difference maker for a defense that needs more leadership now and once Shaq is done. 

Also been said in ways, but I think his injury history won't impact Morgan THAT much. Morgan sees a dawg LB with an injury history when he looks in the mirror. I think he's willing to roll the dice on Payton if he's there at 39.

3rd at the earliest, LBer is not an immediate need with Shaq, and Jewell penciled in as starters, all but inked. 

We took Kuechly with beason still here.  He played outside the first year.  I think it's going to happen at 39 honestly

Depends ... but I do think Dan has a target for this dude already laid out. NO DOUBT in my mind he's in love with the prospect of either Wilson and Cooper. If I had to put money on it...if either one of them are on the board, they'll be a Panther. 

As for needs it depends on how they view those exact positions. I think center is a glaring need but they seem to have Corbett locked in to the position. With a GM in his first draft and Canales as HC "everything" is on the table.

Hell the Wildcard is the fact we brought in Bo Nix for a top 30 visit.

That is something I did not know--and I can say that the Panthers are targeting Peyton Wilson with confidence---He processes the plays more quickly.  

If Bo Nix drops to 39, do you take him?  It would screw us up on paper, but not having all eggs in one basket at QB might be smarter than having depth at CB or LB. Screw hurting anyone's feelings--he would be a good value and give you a backup (on way or another).  He is about 18 months older than Bryce, fwiw.

I see Denver making a play for Nix, but maybe moving up in round 2--but they do not have a second rounder, so it could get interesting. 

I figured Penix (with his injury history) would fall as well, and I think the Raiders are going to go after him.

No to Bo Nix. He sucked at Auburn and went out west to put up some numbers. He is old too. Brown was his teammate at Auburn. If we are wanting an old rookie QB who went out west to put up stats, Penix is the better of the 2 IMO. 
 

Bojangles would love to sponsor Bo though…

This is really a wildcard situation I didn’t know that we’re actually acting like a professional team Bryce may or may not be a good QB adding another talented QB is how we stay competitive.

This is something to really think about. I understand we have needs but having a talented QB who can get the job done is essential to our team growing and returning to a competitive ball club. Let’s say we end up without any early drafted CB’s we could easily add a free agent vet to get us by. A lot of teams lack in an area or two but good QB play usually makes up for it.

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.

      Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.

      TIME TO SPECULATE

      There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
