Top first rd player who falls

Who is this years first round player that is in all of the mocks that falls to the second or third round?

There is always one, who do you all think it will be this year?

My vote: Janoris Jenkins (safe pick due to character concerns but saying that I wouldnt mind if we picked him)

Vontez Burfict wont get drafted. (FIXED)

Out of shape for the combine, ran a 5.0+ 40. A known head case. I bet he is done.

I remember a WR out of Wisconsin (I think) several years ago, Martin Nance, who was not a head case but everyone (all the mocks) had a first round grade on him. He went undrafted. Signed as an Undrafted free agent and was cut. Every once in a while, there is a player we all miss on that makes the draftniks look very stupid. There is so much hearsay and passing of bad info, we get suckered.

I do not think anyone takes Burfict. You have probably hit on the best answer here, Action.

I was thinking the same thing. Someone may take a flyer on him, looked terrible at the combine, and didnt seem to care... that scares me. I def. wouldnt draft him.. but would allow him to come as UDFA

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
