Having signed Phillips, will they now target a OT for first pick?

If you look at this class OT figures to be the best value at #19.

Its also where the top DT's are protected to start coming off the board. I'm thinking it's OT or DT at 19 with OT being a slight favorite. I'm going to be tuning into who the official visits this year.

I wouldn't hate Peter Woods.

I think Carolina is setting up for Kenyon Sadiq.  He gives the offense a great weapom

If he made it to 19, I think this would be a no brainer. 

Though depending on FA, I think OT is definitely in the mix.

It always seemed the way this draft was going to shake out that there would be better options of OT at 19 than edge rushers or LBs.

It will be unless there is a run on tackles. They may not have a good one left by their 2nd pick. I think if they want one it will have to be at 19 because I think they will be picked out by the time pick 51 rolls around.

Peter woods has fallen out of DJs top 50 ranking, that's a big deal....even the Panthers 2nd is in question now. Just a big fall and bad combine deal....

Yeah I think there is almost no choice, as long as there is a guy there with a first round grade you gotta take an OT.

I see no way we draft BPA when we have no LT--if we sign Nijman, maybe--but we cant go 17 games with him.  I see no options.  Freeling, Proctor, Lomu.  For some reason, I see us taking Proctor if Freeling is gone. I'd rather have Lomu.  

In this post, I have mentioned the name of our first round pick.  

Unless some weird shite happens.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
