NFL.com has us taking DJ Moore with the 59th pick overall in the 2009 NFL draft. I know the kid played for Vanderbilt, and he seems like he could develop into a solid NFL CB. I think he would be a great fit, considering he returned kicks in college and had 12 INTs over two seasons. Some have even compared the CB to a certain CB that played for the Titans, a Pacman Jones. If he was to fall to us at 59, i say we jump on him. A lot of upside.

At 59 it would be a great value pick but I don't think our brass looks at corner as a huge need for us. Fox loves to coach up who he already has at the position and I expect him to do that with Marshall and Wilson. Depth would be the only reason I think we go corner...

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
