I would love him in as a returner. He can find teh holes and gaps better than anyone I've ever seen. As a CB....ehhh with the right coaching he could be effective, but he is no where near being a starting NFL CB right now. He wasn't that great of a CB in college.

One word, stud. I liked this kid more every game I saw him play as a returner.

Personally, I would rather use our 3rd to address our ST return need. All this talk of a DE or DT makes sense, don't get me wrong. Just an opinion. That being said, starting our drives over the 30 or 40 on an average would be lethal. A shorter field plays into our hands, with a young QB and our backfield, without question.

Furthermore, starting with a short field on offense ensures that our opponents would be buried deep into their own territory on drives where we fail to score but still move the chains. Only helps to give our D and young guys in the trenches some room to make those rookie mistakes or mental lapses, while still being in position to make the next play and not play timid while facing a drive by the offense.

Overall, I'd like to see the Panthers address the WR with our first pick,regardless of where it'll be due to trades etc. (That is, if the best player available isn't a guy projected top 20 who somehow fell. In that case, it would be in our best interest.) Following that pick, our 2nd should be a versatile threat at the return game. At this point, whether he is a WR or CB, his help at his natural position is valuable to our depth at those positions. 3rd, address the DE or DT position. With the following picks in not particular order, I'd like to continue to seek filling holes and adding depth to our WR and defensive unit. Oh, and QB project somewhere in the midst couldn't hurt either:D

my twocents.

I've always liked him, but the feeling I get from Mayock was that he doesn't have a lot of potential as a starting CB b/c he doesn't have very good top-end speed. Even watching him, it's clear that he is quicker than he is fast, which may not be a bad thing.

And he dominated in the last game I watched him in, most games I watched him in actually... I would like to get him but he'll probably be gone in the 2nd or 3rd.

He's a little taller than Cap'n at 5'9. he isnt the fastest CB ever, but like you said...in a cover 2 he's a beast. I'd love to pick him up in the 3rd if we got our WR in the 2nd. trade marshall for an extra 2nd, take a WR and a DE/DT in the 2nd and in the 3rd take Javy. let him battle for the nickel job. might have to move Sherrod Martin to CB if he's good enough to be a starter to compete with Cap'n for the #2 job.

    • First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????
    • I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field. 
    • Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
