This is a perfect draft imo to trade down

Mock Draft:

Trade down to the teens, get an extra second rounder

(1)

Fletcher Cox (DT Miss St.)

An absolute motor for a defensive line. He helps our line and ST-DFG unit in a big way. Two areas we for sure need help at.

(2-1)*edit

Vinny Curry (4-3 DE Marshall)

After some consideration and more searching, I realized Curry actually played 4-3 DE for a good part of his playing career so far. He thinks semi-linebacker after college which is good because I think he'd be fantastic against the run at DE which is exactly the type I'd like to see with Hardy. A playmaker. Yup

(2-2)

Jayron Hosley (CB/PR Virginia Tech)

If there is a CB who's been overlooked its Jayron. He's made to play this position in the NFL and the kid's straight got it. Hokie homerism aside, I've watched this kid play his entire career and want him on the Panthers. Last year he battled a some minor injuries well and pulled off a stellar season at CB. And he's not too shabby at PRs. He would be great back there with Gamble imo. Then we have Hogan, a FA & Butler at Nickle/Dime/Backup

(4)

Keenan Robinson (OLB Texas)

I've always been a bit of a Texas fan and I think Keenan would be a great fit for this team. He's a very underrated prospect who plays consistently and would be a very solid backup, potential starter, and ST contributer.

(5-1)

Brian Quick (WR App St.)

Here you go App State fans haha. Basically, I don't like the safeties or o-lineman here for us in the draft. I think we go with those positions in the FA. Then, we can focus on adding an additional weapon to Cam's arsenal. The TEs however remind me of Jon Fox types so we're looking at WR and RB-scat back. I see more in the WRs and think we need an additional red zone threat for Cam. Even though our offense drastically improved and we have Gettis returning, I think we have room to utilize one more guy beyond Smitty to compliment the likes of LaFell, Gettis, and whoever still is here.

(5-2/comp)

Jerry Franklin, ILB, Arkansas

Inside Linebacker backup boooom! He has been very consistent and solid for a few seasons now. He's just not super explosive top of the draft-like. Sleeper potential

(Rest of draft)

insert random ST help/sleepers/Russell Wilson here

every year a shitload of people are like "hurf durf gotta trade down fluhhhuhhuhuh"

don't see how this year is really any different

I'd say its similar to the 2007 draft. Only a few guys are in the for sure impact-player range with pretty much everyone past the top 4 or so prospects similar until the top of the second. You can't deny trading is done a lot on draft day so maybe we get involved this year. Its not out of the equation.

This is literally my ideal draft, except Branch. I love the DE position there, but would rather have Vinny Curry. My draft would look identical. I'd also draft a punter in the 7th round.

I was actually thinking about that...after smoking a bowl, I've changed it to Curry. We're on a very similar page haha :coolgleamA:

Didn't realize he has good experience at DE in a 4-3

You saved me time from having to make a mock. Haha. I think we have been on the same page for a few months now as far as mock drafts.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
