Carolina Panthers

Record: 2-14 | Top needs: DT, QB, CB, OLB, DE

Marcell Dareus, DT, Alabama

I would think long and hard about passing on Missouri QB Blaine Gabbert with this pick, but general manager Marty Hurney drafted Jimmy Clausen last year and signed Matt Moore in 2007 so there might not be as much support in Carolina for drafting a quarterback as there's rumored to be. Dareus, CB Patrick Peterson and OLB Von Miller are the cleanest of the elite prospects in the 2011 class and defensive tackle is Carolina's top need so Dareus appears to be the most logical choice with his size, quickness and versatility.

Dareus is the best option at this point. I know Peterson is a popular pick too, not that I would mind him, but we need a, well I don't want to say stud and get the Bull's horn's, but we do need a DT that can rain down havoc. I know we need QB, and CB, but I'd like to think we can get decent FA help in those area's once this CBA mess is over. Cam, Gabbert, Mallett, and Locker just don't seem to fit the situation the Panthers are in. How would another rookie QB fix the mess were in at that position. Did Fox think Delhomme would never age or get hurt? I'am not bashing Jake, just don't know why Fox and Hurney let the QB position get so bad.

Thank's JOAT, but I don't want guy's to think I'am saying those QB's I mentioned are bad, but our situation is, and Jimmy NEVER shoud have been put in that position. Maybe with Rivera at the Helm Jimmy might, I say might show some promise. It could be that we will need A vet. free agent. It was'nt that long ago I thought Cam was a sure #1 pick. After a closer look, I'd be floored if they pick ANY of the QB's in this class. Maybe Moore can get back to his 09 form, that would be sweet too.

It's about time he got it somewhat right lol. I ahve my opinions on who the panthers to take but I'm less critical of mocks. Still, when someone says that we should pick Bowers/Quinn with our top pick... for months on end nonetheless... yeah that pisses me off.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Icege · Posted

      At the moment? Absolutely not. Maybe if they drop the next three in a row and go into the deadline at 3-6 I can see an argument to be made to move Rico as he's on a 1yr deal. I'd rather keep Chuba's contract though and roll with ETN + JB next season. The team will have plenty of time to see how JB is looking going into the offseason a year-plus after his surgery to know whether or not they need to plan for another direction.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By Icege · Posted

      I forgot to mention my thoughts on the rushing grade! 😮 He ran his ass off both weeks. I can't remember the stat offhand but didn't he have something crazy like 120+ yards after contact vs. Dallas? Against Miami he had lanes as wide as the entirety of I-95 to run through which is why his rushing grade wasn't as high as this week's. He's ran like a man possessed and going to earn himself some money in the offseason.

      Ideas on how to find a pass rush

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
