According to who I want the Panthers to pick.

1. Andrew Luck

2. Ryan Mallett

3. AJ Green - Lets face it...we aren't picking 3rd.

4. Patrick Peterson

5. Jake Locker - Not on the level of Luck and Mallett but still a good player playing with nothing around him.

6. Julio Jones

7. Anthony Castonzo

8. Marcel Dareus

9. Robert Quinn

10. Da'Quan Bowers

Honestly, the decision to me is which QB to take with either the first or second pick. If we have #1 we take Luck. If we have #2 then we take Mallett. We aren't going to be able to trade down even though it would be ideal if we had #2. There is just too much money to be paid for a team to move up. The only reason a team would do it is to pick a QB and if the new coach is smart he wouldn't do that because we MUST have a legit QB in this draft. So as it stands right now we take a QB. Mallett would be worth the #1 pick if Luck didn't come out.

why is mallett ranked #2? SEC fan...?

He's completed 67% of his passes in a conference that is stocked with NFL caliber defenders. He's thrown 24 TDs to 8 INTs. He is 6'7'' 240lbs with a cannon for an arm and he has the 4th highest passer rating in the country.

Locker is in my top 5 because he's a talented QB. I'm not completely sold on him but it doesn't matter because we aren't picking any later than the 2nd pick. I just don't think Clausen has what it takes right now and I want a franchise QB.

DaQuan Bowers is horrendously overrated IMO. The guy is 6'4'' 280...DEs that size are a dime a dozen. The only players worth the money that a top 5 contract will pay them are Luck, Mallett, Peterson, Green and possibly Locker. The rest are bad picks IMO if they go before any of those guys (which they will because of need).

LOL. You keep pointing out his size, which isn't an issue, and speak nothing of his ability, athleticism, or production, all of which are exceptional.

      Well I should also say another caveat is positional value. You have to be careful violating that. For the scenarios you are describing, those are also things that free agency is for. Free agency should always set up the draft. Improve the roster and then go shopping for things to potentially take your roster up a notch.  Lastly, we are in scenario 2. Our roster is still not good and we have holes at most position groups. We are actually in the "BPA All Day" range.

      what's a lie?

      I'm very interested in seeing the specifics of these cases. The term "illegal gambling" makes me think this is unrelated to typical sports betting/point shaving and related to something else on the side. That kind of stuff worries me much less than something like we saw with Jontay Porter happening on a larger scale. I absolutely think the feds need to be keeping a much closer eye on this stuff given how much more sports betting is going on these days. I honestly don't care that much if it's a Calvin Ridley situation where a player is betting on league games that he's not playing in; I can see why that isn't allowed, but I don't think that presents a major threat to the integrity of the game on any kind of large scale. IMO, the larger threat to sports in general isn't a large-scale organized crime operation but a bunch of smaller operations or even just individuals who are willing to do what Jontay Porter did. He was a relatively insignificant player in the grand scheme of things, but it's entirely possible we see this type of thing more and more even at the highest levels of sports. If gambling is going to be legalized to the extent that it has been, there needs to be better regulation and a very strong set of rules in place for the sportsbooks, the bettors and for the leagues/teams themselves. I don't get the sense that is the case right now.
