I would continue to build around Newton.. Defensively speaking, you guys had plenty injuries. LaFell, Gettis, Nanee won't cut it.

As for Burfict.. He's a Top 5 talent..whether or not he goes there is really up for debate. I would take him...

#6 offense in the nfl #30 defense and you have us picking a receiver, (one who isn't a top 10 prospect at that)

As for Burfict he won't go there.

you're thinking too far down the road and you'd be making the team incredibly lopsided. the team has no problem putting up points. it's stopping other teams that is the problem. they can take care of WR later. focus on more immediate needs that will help the team get wins. adding a WR isn't going to do that.

you're thinking along the same lines that the falcons did. the falcons won't go far because they lack key elements and the gave them up so that matt ryan could have more weapons. he has them and they are still a one and done playoff team and that's all they will be because they aren't complete.

michael floyd is a bit overrated as well.

I like your insight, can't agree with some of the picks, but everyone has different opinions and the draft is still months away. I agree that even though their stock is slipping right now, I think Burfict and Jeffery will move back up the board. I think #5 overall is a tad bit high for Burfict, but I could legit see him go in the top 15. He just has some character concerns that would keep me from taking him in the top 15.

Loving the fact that you guys aren't programmed to think how ESPN or NFLN thinks... Its about thinking how YOU would improve the team.. right now, I'd take my chances with the guys on defense coming back from injury...adding a few depth guys while adding a young threat on offense

I appreciate your work, Czar, and I usually like your preview videos but I can't say I like this mock at all. And not only for our team. Besides the obvious opinions that have already been voiced (Floyd, Jeffery, Burfict) I don't really like Randle to the Texans (I think they'd pick Wright if he's available before Randle), I think Richardson goes too late (I think the Jets would jump on him if he's there when they pick, not to mention the Bengals with one of their picks). I do like a couple of picks (besides the obvious first few), I like Perry to the Chargers, Upshaw to the Cards, Brown to the Eagles (but I think Kuechley might be available when they pick and they take him). And about the Bears pick, I know they have a new offensive coordinator, but how would that make them look, to trade their 1st round TE for a 3rd round pick, then pick another 1st round TE the next draft.

While I'm not sure that's the direction Carolina will go, Floyd and Wright are ahead of Jeffery as prospects and are ranked as a borderline top 15 guys. (hell, most places have Sanu rated higher then Jeffery. Also some possibility that Jones makes a push into the first round, which would push Jeffery down even further.)

This year's draft is heavy offensively at the top with 2 QB's, 3 WR's, 3 OT's, 1 G and 1 RB rated in the top 15.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Joe Person Draft Weekend inside info

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
