There is still a lot of uncertainty surrounding the top pick and in reality the Panthers themselves may not know who they are going to take until shortly before draft day. However, the quarterback talk seems to be gaining a lot of momentum and if history is any indication that is the direction they may ultimately go. The opportunity to nab a potential franchise signal caller doesn't come along every year so if Carolina has any doubts about Jimmy Clausen's ability to be that type of player they must grab Missouri's Blaine Gabbert at #1. Gabbert isn't a finished product and will have to adjust to a pro style system but he has all the physical tools and intangibles that you look for. Some feel Gabbert has come out of nowhere and is only being mentioned as a potential top overall pick because there isn't a true stud quarterback prospect in this class. However, Gabbert has always been a very highly regarded pro prospect and the only reason he was flying under the radar is because few expected him to come out early. Auburn's Cam Newton is also in the mix but keep in mind that Panthers owner Jerry Richardson has shied away from guys who make headlines off the field for the wrong reasons. Others under consideration include Alabama DT Marcell Dareus, Clemson DE Da'Quan Bowers and LSU CB Patrick Peterson. Keep in mind that new head coach Ron Rivera is a defensive-minded guy and may push for a [sic] impact talent on that side of the ball, especially up front.

Gabbert is surging up to #1 across a TON of mocks. I've been tracking it from a mock draft compilation JOAT shared. It's crazy.

With Gabbert's recent #1s, he has held the lead in #1 forecasts to us roughly since his Pro Day.

According to the above link, in the month of March, Cam Newton has had 43 mocks place him at #1, Gabbert has had 37 (almost all in the last few weeks), Fairley has had 25 (almost all of them earlier in the month), Bowers has had 36 (ALL of them at the start of the month), and 29 for Dareus who has surged as the other big pick other than Gabbert.

Many of these mocks are updating more than once a month now. heh.

    • Please infant jesus.  Then throw whatever you need to at mcdermott to bring him back. 
    • It's gonna be interesting the impact this has around the college football world. I mean, for the worst program in power conference D1 football to hire a new coach and immediately win double digit games for the first time in program history then follow it up with an undefeated national championship run in year two... just wow. I don't think even the most delusional rosy outlook folks thought something like that was possible. These blue blood schools are gonna be looking at their programs like this program that has a historical record of only winning about 40% of their games just won a national title and is 27-2 over the past two years simply by hiring the right coach. Every other power conference team is gonna be looking at Indiana like "hey, that could be us if they can do it so can we." I think what Cignetti has done at Indiana has really ramped up the pressure and expectations across the board.
