With the 1st pick in the 2011 NFL Draft Carolina Panthers Select....

With out question we should be picking at minimum in the top 3. What position or player would you take?

Currently I would look at these 4 in no particular order. Green being the sexy pick and Peterson being the one I hope they make but hate the idea of paying a CB that kind of money.

Bowers DE Clemson

Amukamara CB Nebraska

Green WR Georgia

Peterson CB LSU

CB is really deep. I can see us trading down a couple times and still getting a very good starter there.

My best case scenario...

#1 overall pick, sell Luck to the Bills for the #2 and #34 overall picks.

Trade down again to the 7-10 range and get another 2nd.

1) Prince Amukamara CB

2A) Ryan Broyles, WR

2B) Mike Pouncey, OG

Only in a perfect world. Why would Buffalo give up that much just for Luck? QB is pretty deep.

Alot of people have a huge gap in talent between Luck and their #2 QB (being either Locker or Mallett depending on who you talk to). If you look at the QB prospects as being a Peyton Manning/Ryan Leaf situation then it's really not out of the question. Sell the idea that you will draft Luck yourself or trade down to someone else who will and the Bills would have to trade up if they want him.

Honestly, I think the most unlikely trade in my scenario would be trading down the 2nd time after Luck is off the board, even though you're trading down more spots for the same price.

Like you said though, this is all pretty much perfect world/dream scenario type stuff.

It all depends on who we hire as coach, and if Hurney is still here. Hurney will not draft a QB. If Hurney isn't here, then Luck is ours, and Jimmy is trade bait.

All depends on who has the first. Has anyone noticed Ricky Stanzi? He has looked better than both Locker and Mallet.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
