[Chief Keek]

Glad they shored up the Defensive front.

[TylerDurden]

I wanted ILB but had DL as my second choice. I don’t know anything about him either, hope he is great. Kris Jenkins was a 2nd rounder for us. I would damn sure take that.  

Consensus seems to be David Bailey and Jacob Rodriguez owe a lot of their success to Hunter's impact on the line. Can't complain about that.

Better football player than athlete but damn his testing scores are ugly. Vertical in the 1st %. Yeesh. He does stop the run which I suspect is what will be asked of him primarily in Carolina.

Bruh can't jump over the goalline. LOL

And it's not like he's a monster. He's "only" 318.

This dude is strong as hell. I can see why he caught our attention. 

Now pair this on a line with DB, Phillips, Scourtin and Wharton w/ Llyod behind 'em... yea I can see the vision. 

[SOJA]

we needed a nose, I love this.

[332nd]

Add me to the folk who think we didn't need to trade up, but again, not mad at the pick.

I mean, if there's one score to not give af about for a DL, it's vertical.

NT jumping? Vertical scores at the combine are useless for judging interior linemen.

[TLGPanthersFan]

So far been very unimpressed with this draft. That said don’t really blame Morgan. This draft just sucks. 

[NAS]

I don’t mind the pick just don’t like trading up. It’s the third year in a row Dan has done that and each time seems unnecessary 

[pantherj]

He doesn't fit our defense at all. He's not big enough to play NT, and he's too short with an even shorter wingspan to play DE for us. So we traded up for someone who belongs in a 4-3. Draft is not going great.
