The Draft Network's Justin Mello's Panthers 7-round mock draft special

If the Panthers take a S at 8 imma riot

lol I was just thinking this when reading that other thread that just got started where the guy said he likes a Safety at #8.

Yea, I'd love one of those major impact Safeties that we haven't seemed to have in forever, but I don't think there is an Ed Reed in this class, just seems like it would be a waste at #8 to go that way.

I'd rather take the TE from Penn State at 8 than go with a Safety, and I couldn't be more against doing that anyways.  OL and S might be the only two positions I'd have a serious issue with if we used #8 on those positions, anything else could be justified, I'd even take an elite MLB over either of those two (if there was one we liked enough, but don't think there is this year anyways).

Carter is an elite ILB and is totally worth the 8th pick if he's there

    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.  
    • The most telling sign, IMO, of a team on the upward swing is who we lost in the off-season. Who left that even saw the field? Woods, Clowney, Sanders, & Hekker. OK...no big deal. Clowney is the only 1 that I raised an eyebrow over and I get that it was a money decision. No need to pay him over $7M to take snaps from our draft picks when he was just OK last year.
