The Huddle Mock Draft...

Recommended Posts

Here's what we are going to do...each day I will post a poll with 5-6 possible choices for the Panther's upcoming pick. We as a group will vote on who should be the pick or who we think will be the pick whichever way you wanna go. After each day I will post the results and continue on to the next Panther pick. By this time next week we should have a full mock draft off all the Panthers selections and then we can see how close we are to the actual results. So with out further adieu...

With the first pick in the 2011 Huddle Mock Draft, the Carolina Panthers Select...

I'm only doing the Panthers picks...see how well we know our team. I will consider thoughts and opinions for prospects for the 65th pick at any time but it will really determine how this voting goes. In other words, if Netwon is the pick I wouldn't make someone like Ricky Stanzi a possibility for the 65th pick...

Also if we could sticky this it would be awesome, but not sure if it qualifies for that quite yet.

Funny thing. On yesterday's Sportsnation national poll, only 36% of the respondents agreed that the Panthers should draft Cam Newton.

(no word on how many of those were actually Panther fans)

10% of those fans think the Panthers play in Raleigh, so there's that...

I figured Cam would get be the popular vote...not to say it's a bad decision but the more I think about it the more I feel the panthers need someone who can start right now and without a second round pick it's going to be hard to find somebody because cam won't be able to.

    • One could fall, but doubtful.  I am thinking a free agent who can't find a home or a player who is cut after the draft--something like that.  The draft is not deep at DT.  I do like the rookie I posted who could be a third round option.  I love high motor DTs who can pressure the passer.
    • that is it--a great athlete who has never really had to apply himself in things like preparation or developing a football I Q.  just has always been way better than everyone else.  There is a point and time when everyone around you is a great athlete.   The point here is to take the thinking away from him.  I image all the DCs who have had him have tried to "Swiss Army knife" him into a state of confusion.  A confused (as opposed to reactive) player is not running 4.39.  They get slower.  He does not have the background or acumen to be a Swiss Army knife--like you say, he needs to "see the ball, get the ball."  The point here is just that.  Give him one thing to do in some situations, and he will get faster.  I am not willing to take an athlete like that and say "he sucks" when there is a way to get the most out of him.  That is what good coaches do.  Until then, we should not label him.  That is what bad coaches do.
    • I kinda see it as the same as any other position of arguable need. The thing is, I don't see any DT that may be available as the BPA at 19, but you never know.
