1st & 2nd round options

[davos]

Its still damn hard to narrow the crop down this year in prospects. We could go a variety positions in both rounds 1 and 2 and its left us in actually a much more chill situation than last year at the top of the draft. There's a lot of interesting players out there. Right now, I've somewhat narrowed it down to a few atm:

*underlined my current favorite combo for the first two rounds

**updated 3/2

(1)

Luke Kuechly (ILB BC)

Dre Kirkpatrick (CB Alabama)

Janoris Jenkins (CB N. Alabama)

Fletcher Cox (DT Miss St)

Dontari Poe (DT Memphis)

Brockers (DT LSU)

Devon Still (DT Penn St.)

Riley Reiff (OT Iowa)

David DeCastro (OG Stanford)

(the wtf I didn't see that coming possibilities)

Whitney Mercilus (DE Illinois)

Nick Perry (DE/OLB USC)

Melvin Ingram (OLB/DE South Cak)

Courtney Upshaw (OLB Alabama)

(potential fallers)

Morris Claiborne (CB LSU)

Quinton Coples (DE UNC)

(2)

Stephon Gilmore (CB South Cak)

Jayron Hosley Esq. (CB VT)

Markelle Martin (FS OK St.)

Ronnell Lewis (LB Oklahoma)

Coby Fleener (TE Stanford)

Jared Crick (DE Nebraska)

Jerel Worthy (DT Mich. St.)

Vinny Curry (DE/OLB Marshall)

(Remaining round ideas)

Keenan Robinson (OLB Texas)

Ladarius Green (TE Lous-Laf)

Ryan Steed (CB Furman)

So, if you had to narrow these rounds down to only a select few (not necessarily 1 choice) who would it be?

I'm not asking who you think we'll pick...which guys do you really want on the team? Oh, and be as biased as you can possibly be.

All of those second round options are good, thats why trading down in the first if at all possible would be appealing.

Love Jayron Hosley, R. Lewis, and M. Martin. Would love to trade down and have an extra 2 and 4th

There was an article by Joe Person of the Observer that said Janoris Jenkins is being kept on the Panther's radar. (Today, also found in PFT)

To me, considering his baggage, that suggests that the Panthers are looking at trade down options. I do not see us drafting him at #9.

TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION:

Based on the players you have listed, considering the mood I am in now and the weather conditions,

1. Reiff

2. Worthy

My Preferences were not listed.

[DynastyRTR]

1-either Poe or Cox

2-either Gilmore or Hosley

[Matthias]

I truly hope (if we don't end up with Claiborne) Gilmore will be there in the second round. His combine cemented his status as a top corner prospect. (His forty time proved he can play corner in this league)

My two options are:

Brockers

Gilmore

Would you trade out of the #9 pick with New England and get the #27, 49, and 63 picks? Considering our situation and the talent drops in this draft, I think I would.

We would pick 27, 40, 49, 63. (going from memory)

if we trade down that far, we should get two first round picks

I thought about the 27 and 31, but thought people might want quantity over quality.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

No matter what, we are getting one heck of a player in the first round that will really help us a lot. And we should have no problem doing the same in the second round. I don't really care who we get as long as they help improve our team. Which I am very confident we will get that.

[JawnyBlaze]

My choices are in order of preference in each round.

1. Brockers or Poe

2. Minnifield, M. Martin or Gilmore

Rest. Mitchell Schwartz, Demario Davis, Sean Spence, George Iloka maybe if he falls (don't know much about him) or that Safety from ND if he falls, BPA (best punter available) or BKA.

[Catalyst]

I really like Gilmore, but I have a feeling he's going to end up going in the late 1st before we have a shot at him. Or at least the early 2nd before our pick. He's rising pretty quick.

[MHS831]

Gilmore is a stud, but he makes mental mistakes. He disappears, has bad games, then blows you away. big and fast--Workout Warrior? I am a Gamecock fan, so I am biased, but he scares me a bit. If they get his mind right, yesss.

[stirs]

It could be Poe and then Jenkins.

As someone on NFLN said about Jenkins, "we have seen this movie before, and it doesn't turn out well", speaking of his off field choices.

He could possibly be there in the second for us.

[jarhead]

Brockers demonstrated he lack of work ethic with the weights and someone please tell me how a freakish athelete like Poe had such horrible stats in college.Something does not add up.He was only second team in his conferance.
