New 2012 NFL Mock Draft


FDN

Recommended Posts

If there isn't football, and we're all in the same order again, the Panthers either take Luck and let him and Newton fight it out, or they make a historical trade for someone's entire draft. What they won't do is pick someone else first.

There will be a season and we will have a top 10 pick but it won't be the 1st pick.

I think we'll most likely take the best WR or DT available next year. Even if we don't trade Smitty we have to give Cam a top notch recieving threat. I like the 2 DT's we got this year but we need a really, really good DT.

Hightower is a good pick for San Diego, I wish they would've addressed it better in this last draft, but if everyone comes back (including Butler, who was on IR last year), it may not matter.

As far as CB's go, I'm not sure we're gonna go in that direction. We took Gilchrist and Wright with the hopes that they'll be part of the CB rotation with Jammer and Cason. They stay on the right track and I won't see it being a need. But if an Amukamara type falls to us - we may bite, even though we didn't on Amukamara himself.

Tackle is something to keep an eye on. After Kaeding, Clary's probably the least liked Charger by the fans, so we won't shed a tear if he leaves. Regardless, if him or Dombrowski are a mess on the right side, then it may get addressed.

Don't forget about WR, especially if VJ leaves. Given AJ's history to making big moves to get players he wants (Weddle, Mathews), I wouldn't put it past him to trade into the Top 10 for Jeffery or Blackmon.

Luck or trade or Luck then trade.

Competition? Taking a QB #1 overall should mean you have full confidence in the QB being the future. The panther would get the most out of the pick by trading compared to any other scenario.

    • It's your right to refer to it as vague, but it still flouts the theory of "zero evidence" that Tepper is changing. Here's another: "Carolina Panthers head coach Dave Canales and general manager Dan Morgan are reportedly being given a larger leadership role within the organization. Panthers owner David Tepper 'has taken a more hands-off approach of late,' according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. 'He's trying to trust Canales and GM Dan Morgan to get it right, knowing that the roster requires patience in its current state,' Fowler wrote. 'We shall see if he holds to that.'" https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10146782-report-panthers-david-tepper-has-taken-a-more-hands-off-approach-to-team   ""David Tepper just wants to win and he's gonna supply everything that we need to win.. Things are changing around here and things are looking really positive" ~ Dan Morgan  https://x.com/PatMcAfeeShow/status/1917639137550627107?t=6vgo8yXTO6eD0Gb55hyzNg&s=19   From about 2:15-6:35, Julian Council, Locked on Panthers, gives his take on whether Tepper seems to be changing (and specifically referenced the war room in his analysis):    Dean Jones of Cat Crave on David Tepper in the war room. "He was an innocent bystander throughout a hugely important decision, placing full trust in Morgan and Tilis to make the right call." Jones also quoted Pat McAfee: "What I noticed though, at one point, they looked at (David) Tepper to get an answer, Tepper didn’t say sh*t. All anybody has said about Tepper is that he’s hands-on, hands-on, hands-on. Too handsy, too involved. He’s not letting the football people do their thing. We just watched in the biggest moment for their franchise, a top ten pick, he just sat there and let everybody do their jobs. I think if you’re a Panthers fan, you love everything you saw there." https://catcrave.com/silence-from-david-tepper-becomes-panthers-loudest-victory Granted, you're not getting a major headline here, but that's not going to happen anyway. Fowler isn't exactly a nobody, everybody knows McAfee, and you also have some locals that follow the team (including Dean Jones). Of course you have a right to believe that Tepper hasn't really changed, but to say there is no evidence that he just may be changing is not really true. It's just not. Hate the guy, but the way that he has handled this current regime is different than he handled previous teams, and his silence in the war room and publicly in general is different than years back.
    • Ehhh im not mad either way I don't think hes garbage but he was and is overpaid.... but he was a skating turnover machine.
    • My interpretation of his comments was somewhat different. And I took issue with his contract the day he signed. But it's all history now and doesn't matter in the big picture.
