I think we should draft him if we're in position to in April. MJG just signed a one year deal, Otah is always banged up and Gross is getting older and more expensive. He gives us instant depth, security and a guy who can replace either of our OT's when the time comes.

Not a sexy pick, but I believe in building teams from the inside out. The line of scrimmage is where games are won and lost.

Thoughts?

I like it a lot. I think Kalil ends up being one of the better players from next years draft. He's a stud at LT. If Otah gets hurt again, Carolina should draft Kalil and start him from day 1 as the LT. Move Gross back to RT for the rest of his career. IMO his skill set is better suited for RT anyways.

I definitely wouldn't mind Kalil at all but I think CB or DT is more of a pressing need. Someone like Cliff Harris would go a LONG way to improving our defense....

I agree with this. And I also think that most if this board doesn't know of any other OTs in the country besides Kalil and gush over him mainly since he's Ryan's brother lol

Matt is the best OT in the country by a far margin....CB is just a much bigger need IMO. It has nothing to do with people not knowing other OT....

I think he's the best in the country but not by as far a margin as you say. Riley Reiff and Jonathan Martin are both pretty good. And no, i dont think many people here know any other good OTs

Robert Woods still has a lot to prove. Is the talent there? Oh yes! But he is inconsistent and you have to factor in he is surrounded by some of the best talent in college football. Last season he had a monster game, 12 catches, 224 yards, and 3 tds. Besides that game? Next week he had over 100 yards and 2 tds and then not another game the whole year over 100 yards. Only 1 other game with a single touchdown. That was it.

Johnathan Martin out of Stanford is a name that's starting to pop up more and more. I however think he waits till 2013 and be the first tackle taken because I think Kalil has that locked for now.

Edit: Says he's a senior but I swore it said Junior the other day and it list his Sophomore season as last year????

      Do you see the vision?  As of now our Carolina Panthers don’t have an identity. We are not an offensive powerhouse and on defense we only started getting it together towards the end of the year last year. In my opinion we are much closer to having an incredible defense that scares the daylights out of people. I say the answer is simple and we fully commit to that possible identity.    Emmanuel McNeil Warren (E man)  This guy is like a shark lurking around ready to attack anyone. Fearless. He is easily a top 20 talent in my eyes, and the only reason he isn’t more talked about is because he’s from Toledo. Do your due diligence as panther fans and watch his tape I beg you. Once you’re done watching let me ask you this, if you dropped E - Man into the strong safety spot on the Buckeyes, he isn’t being talked about as one of the best prospects we’ve seen in some time given the skill set you see with this guy? I think so. Put his name on the card and turn it in at 19.    Jacob Rodriguez  High effort, High energy, High IQ guy that flies around the field. We all know Jacob at this point. My only concern is he’s a little bit too good and I’m not sure he makes it to us at our pick in the second. With the additions of Jacob and E- Man I think our defense goes to top 5 in the league. We would have a duo of linebackers that rival anything we’ve had in our past. I’m not a GM so I don’t know what the possible answer could be, but if there’s a way we can comfortably trade up in the second to secure this guy I think we find a way to do it.    Spend the rest of our picks fixing the O - line.    Thoughts Panthers fans? Who’s the ideal duo for yall?

      OL is arguably much more important to the success of a young QB. (Or any QB)
