God forbid this is the way the Draft shakes out

The one with the least value. Gotcha. 

No one knows 100 percent if any of these guys will amount to squat in the NFL.  Warren could be the next Gronk or La Porta. He could also be a so so Hayden Hurst. I'm all for BPA at our pick. We need D but we shouldn't pass on him due to a need somewhere else, reaching is cheating yourself.

Draft winds just changed with the saints having QB carr problems.... fyi they pick 9

 

That must be the reason for Dan/Brandt looking into mid-late first rounders. Be nice to land a near BY package to prevent the sinats form adding a QB this draft!!!

Add in cousins already getting 10 million and due 27.5 guaranteed, LOLOLOLOLOLOLs. Better pray penix is a god.....

In this scenario, a team wanting a QB becomes an opportunity to trade down if the opportunity is there and compensation good enough 

My justification is simple, I have seen several tier rankings of the DEs. After the top 2 or 3, well. The depth is good

If no trade back then and staying at 8 

1. Take BPA regardless of position and in this case OT trumps WRs…learn from Philly  build that line  and  Moton  isnt getting any younger 

2 or defense is the focus, the line would  be great but, best cornerback available, and CB trumps most other Def positions

let’s face it, Horn does have his history

….and i dont know about you all, but im sick of seeing Evans running through the secondary like Secretariat in the Belmont Stakes 

If it came right down to brass tacks and this was the scenario, I would prefer to go with the LT. Not only because I tend to agree that if you can build dominating lines, it allows the team to operate. I also think that it is a very Panthers thing to have a LT that has a weakness in pass blocking, but we just hope with all our being that he gets better. We could play him at a strength instead of tolerating a weakness.

This is the least likely thing to happen in the Panthers draft, and I would instead expect to say "Hello, Mykel!"

Why would we take him when we could take Tyler Warren? Warren is both a receiver and a tight end? Pair him with Sanders and you have a pretty damn good tight end room that provides you a ton of flexibility. 

I really like Warren but saying he’s a WR is quite a stretch. He’s a really good blocking TE and is willing to do literally everything on the field. Finds soft spots in the zone very well but isn’t the receiving threat Bowers or Pitts was coming out. I’d be happy with him at 8 but don’t think we should be under any impression he solves our lack of talent at the WR position.

Doesn't matter who he is. TE doesn't have top 10 value. Period.

How? If you had a crystal ball and knew you would get Bowers production his rookie year he would have gone after Nabers

100 receptions is nothing to sneeze at but I think the biggest thing is he makes the offense more unpredictable. He is a mismatch going out and you can't tip your hat on run or pass plays in 2 tight end or 1 tight end sets.  That being said, I don't think they will draft him unless the board shakes a certain way. It does really feel they are locked in on the Georgia boys.

Yeah that’s very true. I just don’t think he comes in here and replaces a #1 WR in Canales scheme. Warren would be a great add. We’d still need another WR imo

You guys whom are so desperate for another offensive player will make any argument to justify your stance. 

On offensive players whose value equals 10 too is QBs and elite left tackles. 

Otherwise, it's defense. 

lmao okay grandpa let’s get you to bed

 I feel you! Value is only determined by certain measures and for our team, a tight end holds value. Now if they really feel one of the other tight ends can do something,  ok but  6 of the last remaining teams in the playoffs, would've  struggled heavily without solid tight end play.  I'd rather have Jeremy Shockey  then Brian burns... in perspective.  I'd be happy with Warren bc you know you getting a starter. His game translates with minimal flaws. Remove Kelce from Kc and you probably  don't have a few of those rings either.

The TE has always ranked 5th in targets Canales system.  Makes no sense to get a TE so high

      to all the Low-T Betas crying about "pineapple doesn’t belong on pizza" / "we’ll get embarrassed if we admit we like it" stop the nonsense stop the embarrassment go back to watching The View with your girlfriend’s other boyfriend while eating your dry cheese-only slice like a toddler Pizza culture has not sniffed innovation in nearly a decade, a total abyss of pathetic, boring, flavorless display of culinary cowardice Do I think pineapple pizza is going to replace pepperoni and conquer the world, absolutely not Would I be excited to proudly order it anyway? hell yea and deep down you’d give up making out with your first cousin on the weekend to take a bite of a hot, fresh, pineapple slice We need to normalize pineapple on pizza to set the blocks for the future of flavor We have an up-and-coming generation of taste buds who need guidance a STUD of a topping that is COOKING a wrecking ball of sweetness that hits like a freight train a stud salty counterpart like ham or bacon to balance it a young buck of creativity for toppings that is just getting started a true #1 cheese holding it all together a solid crust foundation a sauce that is progressing It’s not perfect, it’s not traditional, but I am beyond elated with the direction pizza is going I will be in the pizzeria cheering on the boys stacking pineapple on that dough and so should you And for the national mouth breather association who will undoubtedly poo and flame everything I post… have a blessed day

      Remember when we passed on malik wills 3 times for matt corral?

      I can't defend Richardsons failure to this point. And he is still as young as the rookies being taken this past season. I think he still could pan out.  XL is another case. I think he looked the part but some of his times and film showed he struggled separating and the fact he never showed up being good before his 5th season. Laad was my obvious choice at that point(tho I was banging the table to trade up and grab Thomas Jr when he fell into the 20s). Ladd didn't lack athleticism and had the route running and mental part to boot. Didn't see a weakness in his game expect he was smaller..

      Surprised?  I wouldn't be surprised. I think you are missing my point. I'm not saying the Panthers won't extend Bryce.  I'm just saying that decision won't be based off one game.  This game is not going to decide if Bryce is released or given a 5-year deal.  Like, those are crazy extremes. The people who will be surprised are those who think the Panthers losing this week will automatically mean Bryce is gone in the offseason or won't be starting again for us next year, since that seems to be the only reason people are wanting them to lose.  Which is why I think it is silly to be rooting for that.  Because we can all pretend we know what the FO is thinking, but we don't.  So why not just enjoy the moment and the possibility of hosting a playoff game?  Like, what's the point of being a fan of the team if we can't even enjoy moments like this?  Just because of something that MIGHT happen in the offseason?
