I'll pass, DT's or defensive players in general don't win Playoff games. At some point you've got to take a chance on hitting the homerun, with the 1st pick in this years draft now's as good a time as any. :)

Give the fans a reason to be excited, with good/above avg defensive production (especially considering how long we were on defense) and a defensive minded coach to improve us even further. I say you go after a player to improve what many try to sidestep as the NFL's 32nd overall offense. No defensive player we draft is going to help us offensively THAT is our biggest need. Space eaters can be found in later rounds. SF out :smash:

I could very easily see us picking Dareus, even after all this courting of Cam Newton.

I have my opinions on who they should pick, though even there I'm not really settled (back and forth between Peterson, Dareus at the moment; still think Fairley could be an option too).

As far as who they will pick, I'm not even gonna try and predict that, especially not this far out.

Fairley played a bigger role then Cam in the national championship....and Dareus is better than Fairley :)

True, I was not impressed with Cam in the national championship game at all...

The other thing Dareus has going for him is that he's not a one-year wonder like Cam, Fairley or Bowers.

I would if I felt like reading 157 mocks :lol:

Truth is, regardless of who the Panthers take, a significant portion of the fanbase will think they completely screwed up and should have picked someone else.

Over time, those factions may be proven wrong, or they could be proved right :eek:

(obviously, you wanna hope for the first option)

If we are going best player available it should be petersen...Dareus isn't really considered the top player by any means. Fairley is a one year wonder who has maturity issues and Newton is...well there is no use getting into that.

If we are going to take the player who could have the biggest impact I'd have to go with Newton. He could change this franchise for the next decade. Dareus, Petersen, Fairley nor anyone else could do that.

It depends on if you want to run a draw play on third and long and punt...or you want to drop back and throw up a prayer. What kind of man are you?

It could very well be Dareus, but you have to think about Fairley 2. It seems like everybody forgot about him. But trust me he want fall there far from Carolina list. I know I wouldnt mind us taking a QB but in April if Ron Rivera is really serious about having a good Defense he might just get his stud DT in Dareus or Fairley. But I kind of feel that Dareus will be the pick. He is the only DT that can have that opportunity to have that Suh impact. Great against the run and his pass rush aint have bad. Very strong and stout and could have a long Career.

Also Mr. Scot on Mcshay new Mock Draft he have the Carolina Panthers taking Marcell Dareus number 1 now.!

      Carolina Way is gone, it went out the window with the Belichick hiring. They'll hire the best coach they can, ignoring everything else if possible.    Athletic reports that the school's top two targets are Tommy Lloyd and Billy Donovan. They don't care the buyout for a coach either, they and the boosters are willing to spend and will be going outside of the coaching family tree 100%.

      I don't think it's a homer though when I really feel this team can beat anyone.  The points that can be scored in bunches when the big three are on has high potential.  Moose has effort for days and IMO is the heart of the team.  And didn't see Miles becoming the team "vet" in the starting lineup just roleplaying lol.   We have to limit the turnovers though (Brandon Miller I'm looking at you bud, you are a bad ball handler) and some little things.   Colby off the bench is a cheat code and him and Kaulk have a nice little game going with the picks.    Sion playing every game and just getting better each game.  He has grit.  Grant and Green also grit.  We need replace Tillman with PJ Hall though.  Tillman looks like someone that shouldn't be on an NBA court, or at least with this team, he's just too slow for this tempo.   Even McNeely looked decent tonight and can drive.   If Kaulk and Moose could even be like 30% 3pt shooters man....
