With Carolina's First pick they select...

[Jaxel]

Peterson look like a monster, sign me up on that guy.

[WilkinsonDonnie]

I would love a legit number one CB. That tagged alot with Gamble would be amazing, but a pocket crushing double team taking DT would be huge also. I just really miss having an excellent dline that could get great pressure by itself. Being able to drop everyone into coverage is huge.

[Lout]

Well there is no DT like that in the top 10 this season.. so you guys can back off the "I hope we draft a stud DT" scenario. Peterson, Quinn, and Heyward would be guys at the top of our board. Heyward would be a beast 34 DE.. I compare him to Richard Seymour. Quinn reminds me of a Demarcus Ware to a 'T'. And Peterson reminds me of Nnamdi Asomugha.

Who would you rather have on our team? Ware, Asomugha, or Seymour? I think I would go for Asomugha only because he shuts down an entire side of the field in 1v1 coverage... you rarely would need to have safety help with him, which allows you to bring an extra safety down in the box to help in run support.

It is easier to find guys who can rush the passer (in a 34 defense), than to find shutdown corners. We would need to be ahead of the Jaguars to nab Peterson though.. their #1 Priority is CB.

[ZedLeppelin]

You don't think the Jags will go with a QB?

I agree there is no great DT top 5 type of guy this year. If there was a Suh type in the draft this year I would say draft him its a no-brainer but that type of guy isn't in this draft.

I am one of those who thinks we will turn it around and go 7-9 or so.. I am not too convinced we will have a top 10 pick (even though it's likely at this point). I have confidence in Clausen that we will get it turned around, and he will only get better and better as the season goes. I may currently be in denial, I haven't figured that part out yet. But I agree, those 3 positions shouldn't be taken with a top 10 pick.

I agree with this.I could see us going 7-9.With a young group of WR starting to come along.

Marcell Darius

[ZedLeppelin]

I would be fine with Darius if our pick is closer to #10 or so, if we are in the top 5 and pick Darius I will scream.

[unicar15]

AJ Green or Patrick Peterson. We are going to have a top 5 pick.

[iamcline]

Assuming the Panthers get a Top 5 (or Top 12 should a miracle happen) pick I think they'll either go Patrick Peterson or even Linebacker depending on the situation with Davis/Beason. Should they go Linebacker it'll be one of the UNC guys.

[TalentScout]

Take Patrick Peterson if he's on the board. He's the BPA regardless.

dude why would we draft a LB in the first round?

LBs are rarely top 5 picks and LB isnt a need that we need to address in the first few rounds. That'd be dumb brah.

The more I think about it the more I want that guy actually. Hes just too much of a beast to pass up on if we get the chance to draft him.

Smith

Green

LaFell

Gettis

Armanti with the potential of becoming a Randle El type with some development

would be the best WR core in the league IMO. Smith and Green as the two starters and as Smith starts to wear down Green will emerge as the number 1 but Smith will still be a great #2...LaFell and Gettis are both probably better suited to the slot (they remind me of the Packers slot WRs) and Edwards as the speedy project guy...

With...

QB:

Clausen

Pike

veteran signing

RB:

DWill

JStew

Goodson

Sutton

FB: Fiammetta

WR:

Smith

Green

LaFell

Gettis

Edwards

TE:

King

Rosario

Barnidge

We would be set up really nicely at all offensive skill positions for basically the next decade if we drafted Green. That offense has the potential to be one of the best in the league IMO and having all those guys locked up would allow us to focus on OL and defense in the draft and FA for the next 2 or 3 years and we would be in really good shape IMO.

[CatMan72]

Robert Quinn, we need a consistent pass rush and Everette Brown has been a no-show.

[Cat'sGrowl]

I'm not a fan of any of the top projected DLmen in this year's class (must be because I'm not a Tarheel fan)

DT is definetly one of our biggest gaps, but it'd be hard to pass up on Green or Peterson considering those are both big holes as well.

That's where my vote goes.
