We will select a very good player at #8/9.. I can only hope that mostly offensive players are picked before us, pushing all the defensive players down to us. I could see 3 QBs, 1 RB, 1 WR, and 2 OTs picked before us. (wishful thinking).

Tannehill is also a very talented prospect 6-4 220 and runs a 4.5, has got athletic ability and a pretty good arm. So it's not surprising to see him at 8th overall.

Brockers is very raw and hasn't displayed dominate pass rush moves, that's going to hurt his stock during the draft process.

Kirkpatrick now has off the field question marks to go along with questionable speed (he's expected to run around a 4.5)

fwiw, brandt was the biggest cam supporter out there last year.

gil brandt's opinion >>>>>>>>>>>>> mike mayock's opinion.

i may not agree with some of them, but i'm going to give it more credence.

I don't think just because our guy panned out means his opinion means more. Plus, Mayock said the ONLY reason he thought Cam would not be successful was because Mayock thought Cam would be satisfied making all of that money, he said he had no athletic celing and COULD be a mega-star. Nobody saw it coming, simple and plain, but I am glad it did. Because of that pick, I know we will get OUR guy wherever we draft.

i guess him putting together the 90's cowboys didnt help either. but he did see the potential in Cam while Mayock jumped on the he is not serial train. amazing how people assumed he would be content with money when his pass showed he was a hard worker.......

gil brandt's opinion has always mattered more.he actually has a clue of what to look for and what things really matter. he knows what teams look for and he's got tons of experience.

brandt is a lot more highly regarded as well. he may not have the national recognition in the media that mayock has, but within the industry brandt carries more weight.

zack brown is the tarheel i want in this draft.

He's looked pretty physical in the senior Bowl, if he runs a 4.3 like he should if he's fully healthy and in shape. If the Panthers want to draft him, they might have to do so at 8/9th overall. He looks more like a NFL safety to me, but if he proves that he can hold the edge effectively as a LB, then I have no issue with the pick.

That would be nasty with him coming off the edge on blitz's.

    • If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.  
    • And what is x gunna help with except show him what not to do. Plus for the first year and a half he was just an obstacle 
    • I understand that some people want WR. I am solidly against using yet another high pick there. Coker is pretty good and we used No picks on him.  What I think we really need at WR is a little bit of a Smitty lite. It is ridiculous to say let’s get a Smitty because you just can’t do that, but someone not tall and long striding but more in his mold. I think we’d have a pretty well rounded group.    Looking at tackle, with replacing Moton looming, it just seems like the no brainer.  You fill in Icky short term. Depending on how he recovers, and how the new guy plays, you go from there. A tackle at 19 is most likely either a LOT, a ROT, or a big talented guard, at worst. We will need all three in the next couple of years.  I would love to have a stud ILB be there at 19 but the OL is the responsible thing to do I believe.
