I don't think we take a ILB until the 2nd round. Our 1st round pick is shaping up to be an OLB, DT or S from the looks of it.

Id prefer that. I did see some CJ Allen and someone commented here that's "Hes a good player on a great team".... fug that crushed my idea for him cause that statement feels right and hes ranked right around 19. I feel Dan will sign at least one vet ILB even with no cap space. Hell Im in the camp of bringing back boom as a #4 ster too, if his market is cold after leading the team in tacks and energy. dang shame your pass coverage is #1 trait for ILB now, look at what Luke started.... 

rams targeted nick Scott and boom both games.... you just have to cover now, or you will be thrown at non-stop.

Caleb Downs is definitely not gonna be there at 19.

he's even less than sonny, <place no one will last until 19 meme".

 

Plus If I'm sonny, Im done for combine. I would quit after that vert. My agent can handle the rest...

The ND RB is going to give us nightmares for years

him with Bijan Robinson in the division, means you have put a huge investment at stopping the run..... It would totally change the draft needs/wants if that happens......scary part is I believe that's his spot.

Panthers MUST GET fuging NT!!!!!! its been 3 years without one in this system....

I agree with you but that kid has swag, he isnt going to back down from any challenge.   Looking over the draft board teams in the top 5ish are going to have a huge decision between him and downs

That’s what people say. I know I’d see it differently. Bijan is pretty damned good but I don’t have nightmares. 

You are talking, likely, (or high potential of) a Ray Lewis or Luke level of impact on the game with Sonny. I hope they do take that RB if they have the two guys both there.

lol no, if he makes it to say 13ish, I wouldnt holler if we traded to get him but that aint happening, that kid is generational

I know it's an unpopular opinion, but draft position is part of why I hate backing into the playoffs. We weren't good enough to win the division, we weren't  winning a SB, and we end up having to move up for a player we could have potentially gotten for free. 

If Stiles or Downs is sitting there at 13, does losing a player of that caliber make a weak playoff appearance loss better? I don't think so but that's just my opinion.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
