Walker is the pick if he's there and general consensus is that he will be. 

Watching his interview i love the way he speaks. Exactly the traits we need. 

You just know he impressed the hell out of them on his visit.

1st round TEs scare me. I don’t know what it is but the top TEs don’t get taken in the 1st round. Even if you would say what about Olsen or Hockenson, I’d come back with they weren’t top TEs on the teams that drafted them.

Not sure what it is but 1st round TEs, especially top 10 ones, do not have a good history, especially for the team that drafted them.

I have absolutely no idea why folks simply dont see this when the data is evident

I like Winston a lot  Need to see if he can cover.  I was hoping for him later in the draft though. We'll see.

the NFL.com draft has us not adding a rusher in the first 2 rounds, that's concerning

Highly unrealistic. We are heavily telegraphing that we will take a DE/EDGE in the first two rounds.

I love, *love* Warren.  Unfortunately, it would be criminal roster management to go TE in the first round with so many problems on defense.

I agree. I'd rather take a FS at #8 than a TE. 

And for those that don't think a Safety should be picked that early, just ask Baltimore how high they'd draft Hamilton. Panthers have ignored that position long enough. We talk about not caring about every position but FS. Plenty of in-the-box guys, but when was the last time we had a true ball hawking roaming in the secondary? Honestly can't remember.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By ok2h8pep · Posted

      Would Morgan or Beason have been HOFers' if injuries hadn't derailed their careers?  I was not a close watcher of the game when Morgan was in his prime but I thought Beason had a few seasons at close to Lukes' level of play.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Franchise QBs feast when things are rolling and the tide that raises boats when things are going sideways.  Bryce isn't that. He's a complimentary player, that's it.  When the defense and STs are on point, he plays loose and it shows.  When we are in a dog fight and things haven't gone our way, he struggles.  It's that simple. He's not a horrible QB, but he's not top tier either.  So the question begs, is this worthy of a second contract?  The answer should be no.  It definitely is my answer. Bryce will never be a QB that can produce wins largely on his arm.  That's a FRANCHISE QB, any other QB is simply a placeholder at the starter's position until that guy can be found.   At some point the excuses of lack of weapons will be a straw man.  Heck, it's nearly there now.  I mean if he doesn't look even better than last year will we blame it on the TE position?  'Well if Bryce only had a player like Kelce, Kittle or Gronk on this team...'  Are we really going to do that?

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By MHS831 · Posted

      When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.
