Tonight we posted our first 7-round mock draft, including compensatory picks.

http://www.sidelinescouting.net/mock/

Take a look and let me know what you guys think about it. Any feedback about the mock or the site would be great.

If you guys have a hard time finding rounds 2-7, all you have to do is go to the top, highlight “mock draft” with your cursor and there’s a drop down menu with each round.

Bare in mind, it is just a mock draft and even in real life, fans aren’t always happy with their team’s picks.

Not many here including myself are really high on McCoy nor are we fans of taking a QB with our first pick. However with the players already off the board the Panthers are in a tight position there, if this scenario were to play out then hopefully they could find a trade partner to move down in the round and draft someone like Brandon LaFell, or Tyson Alualu where it made sense value wise. Then pick up Jarret Brown in the third perhaps a bunch of us are pretty high on him. Also FB is not a need we have Tony Fiametta on the roster and I doubt we carry 2 fullbacks again (Sutton would be an emergency fullback if anything). I didn't see Armanti Edwards from App State as a pick in your mock, if I glanced over him sorry, if not he will be a Panther in round 6 or 7 our FO is very high on his athletic skill set from what we have all heard. We also need a kickoff specialist somewhere in the draft, Kasay and Baker don't have the leg for kickoffs anymore and we lost Lloyd in free agency. One last thing that caught my eye, Charles Scott RB went to LSU not USC.

Turrible absolutely turrible for three reasons:

One: we are not taking Colt McCoy with our second round pick.... its just not happening

Two: We are not taking a safety in round sixth... we'd be more likely to take another wide-out, corner, de, dt, ot, etc.

Three: Brandon Spikes will NOT fall to the Fifth Round I guarantee it. In fact if he is still available in the fourth(doubtful), the Panthers will take him for depth and talent reasons.

I think Spikes does fall to the fifth round. I actually made a bet with a friend the other day that he goes fifth or later. You simply don't take linebackers that run a 5.05 40 yard dash in the first four rounds. McShay and Kiper were on NFL Live just last week saying he could go 6th-7th round.

also, thanks for the feedback C42, I actually was in a pickle with the Panthers in round 2. I'm not sure if they'd take Colt, but I could see it happening with the players that were available at that point. I've heard that they like what they've seen from Matt Moore and want to give him a full season. But, perhaps they could take Colt and sit him on the bench for a year and let him develop.

I like the idea of Jarrett Brown in the 3rd, he's been a riser this post-season.

I think you and I have a huge disagreement about Brandon LaFell. His college production, route running, and blocking skills combine to make him easily a top 50 pick. I don't think he's a first rounder, but he's good enough that the Panthers could start him in Moose's spot as a rookie and not suffer a drop-off.

McCoy won't work well in our offense. We run the play-action vertical game, and you need a strong arm to sell it effectively. He needs to go to a WCO oriented team to be successful, and the Panthers ain't it. If we took a QB there, and if things shook out like you predict to that point, we would take The Golden Calf of Bristol.

Other selections that would work for us, and which I don't feel would be a reach, are Corey Wooten and possibly Kareem Jackson or Nate Allen, especially if someone bites on Marshall.

For what it's worth, you have Saffold and Pouncey going way too high--Guards don't get picked in the first two rounds. Gilyard is also a lot higher than I believe we'll see him. These are just my opinions...

and FWIW, I don't think the mock is all that bad for the Panthers...

I second the sentiment that we'd likely trade down in the second should the cards fall like that, and even if they are looking like they will fall like that, I fully expect us to move up into the early second round to get someone like Golden Tate or Carlos Dunlap...

Don't rule out McCoy, guys...

Don't rule out any QB for that matter who is rated as a 2nd round choice... I know many are sold that we will take a receiver with the 1st pick but I am telling you, with the recent flurry of QBs that they have looked at (and please don't give me this smokescreen crap), I wouldn't rule it out completely.

Am I saying it will happen? No but it could be a possibility.

Oh well sweet jesus if McShay and Kiper predicted it, than hell it must be right!

barnes over blair white in the 7th, no thank you. as for mccoy i like lafell like cyberjag more than most. not a great panthers draft imo, but a lot of guys i would rather have go right before our picks. 4th round also is a weird one. i want a dt bad, but not owens over mitchell, briscoe or even shipley.

the mccoy pick really stiffles what could have been with the rest of the draft. brown in the 4th is a steal, but with mccoy drafted cant take a 2nd qb, now i understand you cant draft in the 2nd expecting whats going to be there in the 4th, but again i liked lafell so much more in the 2nd than mccoy it wouldnt be an issue.

      Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.

      THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
