Emanuel McNeil Warren + Jacob Rodriguez

[RIPTreyLance]

Do you see the vision? 

As of now our Carolina Panthers don’t have an identity. We are not an offensive powerhouse and on defense we only started getting it together towards the end of the year last year. In my opinion we are much closer to having an incredible defense that scares the daylights out of people. I say the answer is simple and we fully commit to that possible identity. 
 

Emmanuel McNeil Warren (E man) 

This guy is like a shark lurking around ready to attack anyone. Fearless. He is easily a top 20 talent in my eyes, and the only reason he isn’t more talked about is because he’s from Toledo. Do your due diligence as panther fans and watch his tape I beg you. Once you’re done watching let me ask you this, if you dropped E - Man into the strong safety spot on the Buckeyes, he isn’t being talked about as one of the best prospects we’ve seen in some time given the skill set you see with this guy? I think so. Put his name on the card and turn it in at 19. 
 

Jacob Rodriguez 

High effort, High energy, High IQ guy that flies around the field. We all know Jacob at this point. My only concern is he’s a little bit too good and I’m not sure he makes it to us at our pick in the second. With the additions of Jacob and E- Man I think our defense goes to top 5 in the league. We would have a duo of linebackers that rival anything we’ve had in our past. I’m not a GM so I don’t know what the possible answer could be, but if there’s a way we can comfortably trade up in the second to secure this guy I think we find a way to do it. 
 

Spend the rest of our picks fixing the O - line. 
 

Thoughts Panthers fans? Who’s the ideal duo for yall? 

[Aussie Tank]

I think i like the Oregon Safety better

 

[Cavscout]

He may not be there at 19, he's that good

[ColumbusCounty]

Would probably end up an extremely productive draft by year 3. Alot of options ..hopefully we wont fug this up. Warren or Thieneman and Rodriguez would be a home run IMO. 

Thieneman and Rodriguez

Warren, Stowers and Hill Jr

CJ Allen, AJ Haulcy, Sam Hect 

Jermod Mccoy, Golday, Ramsey 

 

[Khyber53]

I'm not crying at all if this ends up being our first two picks. We need to get that defense to the next level.

[ChuckWag78]

I think people are sleeping a bit in Rodriguez. Don't think he is lasting to our 2nd pick. 

[Swaggasaurus]

Proctor/Trotter is my ideal duo.

Since I think Proctor is gone by our pick, give me KC/Trotter as my realistic duo.

 

[Chief Keek]

I'm fine with Thieneman or McNeil-Warren..

Rodriguez won't last until 51 so they would have to trade up, he may end up being a late first round selection. Anthony Hill Jr. is more likely to be available.

I don't expect defense in the first round now after the murmurings of finding another weapon for Bryce.

No chance. I think we either trade down a little and grab him or package our second and one of our 5ths to move up into the late 20s early 30s

You're dreaming if you think that's all it would cost to move up from the 51st pick to the 1st round. It would take at least a first next year

Here is how I see it--he is good--but do we not already have 2 safeties in that mold?   Rodriguez could be late first early second.

[ChuckWag78]

Honestly, I could see Rodriguez in the first and A.J. Haulcy from LSU in the 2nd if they really want LB/S combo

[MHS831]

Rodriguez will not only be a first rounder, he might be the second or third LB taken.

We take McNeil Warren with the assumption that he progresses, gets smarter, hops on a strict diet and maximizes his strength and size, and he’s one of the youngest rookies… Cmon boys!!!
