Most trade downs have no scenarios listed, not here.

With the 8th pick, the Panthers trade with their old trading partner, the NY Jets.

The Jets need for RT is huge and so it is for their in division rivals, the Dolphins.

The Jets move up to take Rieff.

The Jets trade up to 8 and get the Panthers 6th rounder. The Panthers get the 16th pick and the 47th in the second round.

1st Brockers DT LSU- Panthers feel better about taking Brockers here than at 8 position and add another guy in the rotation for the coming season.

With Edwards returning, the rotation should be much improved.

2nd Leonard Johnson CB Iowa St--probably end up as the third best CB after the combine.

2nd Kelechi Osemele OT Iowa St--Big, good athlete, can play RT or move inside and play G. The versatility and athleticism are just what we need.

4th Aaron Henry S Wisconsin--Good size, great against the run, can fill in nicely if one of our guys go down or just suck outright.

5th DeAngelo Peterson TE LSU At 237 lbs, he will give Chud a new wrinkle at the TE position. With Shockey most likely not returning, there will be a need for a guy like this to open a whole new set of plays at the position.

7th Tyler Nielson OLB Iowa Backup with good size and great speed who will learn our attacking defense and be able to fill in nicely also if needed.

interesting trade scenario. i could actually see that one happening. ThumbsUp.jpg for originality.

interesting CB pick. don't know a whole lot about that guy. will look, though.

i like osemele there. not sure if he'd slide that far but i won't argue that.

the TE pick is a head scratcher, but it's a 5th round pick so...i'd just rather us use those late rounders on STs guys. not a big deal, though.

decent mock.

Leonard looked really good at the senior bowl and moved his stock up a bit while he was there.

With Dennard dropping into the second and Kirkpatrick possibly moving to Safety, according to Mayock, Leonards stock is indeed moving up.

Also is a great punt returner

      Tony Pauline: Panthers’ Biggest Roster Needs

      By NAS · Posted

      BPA in draft all the way. Address your biggest needs in free agency.

      Exactly.  You let him play out next season and continue to develop Thorton.  Jackson’s earned his next contract, but his age and the risk of tying up such a large portion of the payroll at one position leads me to believe that we’ll let him walk. In all likelihood, we’ll draft another CB, or two, and bring in some journeymen to fill the roster void, between now and the start of the 2027 season.  That’ll create more balance financially across the roster enabling us to invest in other areas.

      I’m just not impressed with these hires/openings

      By strato · Posted

      As far as the NFCS … I think this division will be hotly contested the next couple of years.   I am tending to pay more respect to both Atlanta and the Saints n terms of how strong they will be moving forward, than not.    I am mixed on Ryan but think they have a decent roster to start with. I don’t think he blundered hiring Stefanski. And that offense can be dangerous with a QB. Plus, defense is arrow up. No 1st round pick, WB issues will dull their effectiveness. Question is, to what degree?   I think Moore is going to be a good HC and can overcome tape that people have on Shough. They need a lot but they were playing with people. Just the way you want to see all the way to the end.    Not sure about Tampa they have Mayfield but I don’t think they can maintain their success and Bowles is not going to last much longer. They have to go through all that. Gonna be tough once it starts. Might already have started.    For us I feel pretty good about Morgan. But less so about our offense, we have some short term RB and OL issues and those things are critical given what we are working with at QB.  Overall, mixed. Like a lot of what I see but some major question marks remain.
