BOLD TAKE: Panthers will draft Jacob Rodriguez @19

[CPF4LIFE]

If TD and Luke love him i dont need to hear anything else. If there is one player that screams Keep Pounding in this draft its JRod.

I don't think this is far fetched at all. He would be a starter in a position of need. Do not want a WR or a TE in the first.

This is a weird draft. I feel like, at 19, there are a lot of "3rd best" options; FS, WR, OT, ILB, Hell, even QB. If we can get a solid, long-term starter, I'm not going to bitch about it regardless of position.

FWIW, I'm not sold on Sadiq at all.

I think fans are a little higher on this guy than the NFL, good player but hes a day 2 pick

Well they both pick after us.  If Dan wants him he's probably there.

Cowboys always seem to target players we seem to want.  I'm not sure if thats a good thing

Asked several NFL scouts to predict which off-ball linebacker goes second at the position this week, after Sonny Styles. 

The consensus was Texas Tech’s Jacob Rodriguez. 

Carolina and Buffalo are among teams that did extensive homework on Rodriguez.
