how many people are you having this conversation with?

i'm only counting one.

There are alot of Brockers fans on this board. I like Brockers too but I do not think he is ranked ahead Mo on anyone's big board.

I think Hurney would actually trade up to make sure he got BROCKERS. I hate to keep saying this but, we haven't had a good d line since Kris Jenkins left.

If we plug that hole for years to come we can become a top tier defense. We can draft CBs all we want but a dominant defense is anchored by the line not the other way around.

Claiborne is as good a defensive prospect as we've seen in the last few years. Size, speed, technique, experience...he's got everything a front office wants. Brockers has great physical tools as well, but Claiborne has the experience and production. Not a chance that Brockers overtakes him, and I like Brockers a lot for the Panthers.

we really haven't had a good line since Buckner departed

between 2 years on IR and binge drinking when Jenkins returned in 2006 he was half as good as he was prior to his injuries

Point them out.

Edit: And by point them out, I mean the teams I didn't already address.

Tampa is hurting for a CB. Minny might be a stop too, Claiborne in that secondary would be over kill. They need it because they see Rodgers twice a year, not to mention Detriot and Chicago.

If it came down to those two and Claiborne fell and we were next to pick, they better pick that CB over the DT. Seriously. Ron is coming back, Fua and McClain have experience as well. You can also add Beason to that run stopping formula.

The secondary is...ugh. You know this CG.

Listen, I'm just saying that there's no way Brockers is higher on the teams I listed's big boards than Claiborne. You guys are getting too hyped on this guys potential. Experienced, proven, highly talented corner back > Hyped up draft riser, with good size to add more muscle, and a high ceiling.

I wondered when you would finally come out and admit this and instea of trying to carry the charade of objectivity.

The bottom line is that you're wrong. It isn't "hype." it's a player who superior talent rising to the top of teams draft boards. Your opinion that he isn't worth it is irrelevant, when anyone who matters feels differently.

Sorry, but it's truth. You're forgetting the context surrounding Brockers in this scenario always.

    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
    • You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
    • Okay, who is coming. And how hard is it going to be to get tickets? I’m currently living in Germany a couple hours north of Munich. Happy to help facilitate a cheaper experience for help getting tickets lol.
