DT

DE

CB

RB/FB

OL

WR

I think we will look for our immediate Depth from post draft FA

But I expect to land a starter with our 2nd round pick

A WR in the draft would Surprise the hell out of me considering we have robinson and carter this season

I didnt list LB'r at all considering we have Connor comming back.

So Conner is kinda like having an extra pick this season...

If pep stays, he'll sign a long term deal. Keeping that in mind, if pep stays I think it goes like this:

DT

CB/S - A nickel corner is basically a starter in the NFL. If we get a safety we can try moving Wilson to CB. Of course, I would prefer a corner and prevent this shuffling from happening, I'm just saying they could be the same in effect.

OL - OL instead of a specific position because what we need is depth. Someone who can play guard, center and RT isn't as rare as one may think and someone like that will be good for us.

DE - We're only in a pickle if pep leaves. I'm pretty happy with pep and CJ as our starters with Taylor as a relief pass rusher.

QB - I actually think Jake has half the equation to being a franchise QB - the intangibles. However, I think a real franchise QB needs BOTH production and the intangibles, and a franchise QB is apparently what wins championships if you look at the past few years. To that end, I really don't think that Cutler would give us any more chance in winning a championship, because he's just the other side to the coin. Due to the importance of this position, I wouldn't mind grabbing a QB even in the second round if we think he's the guy.

But the draft will go like this:

BPA

:D

That's just what happens outside the first round. A reach for position here (and by reach I mean according to your evaluation of talent and not that bogus Mel Kiper stuff that somehow people think is more valid than the actual picks when his job is to predict what happens) would hurt a lot more than in the first round in that the fall in quality can be bigger.

So for all you guys who think we HAVE to grab a DL, though I agree it's a big need, i don't necessarily think it'll work out that way. We had 2 empty safety spots 2 the year we drafted Beason and we were SURE we would draft one in the first 3 rounds. We didn't grab one till the 7th. It's just not how things work.

      Who do you despise more… LaMelo Ball or Bryce Young

      By Lurk21 · Posted

      Names I'd keep an eye on... Coby White,  Jalen Suggs, Amen Thompson  and Stephen Castle...  3 teams except Orlando has checked on Melo before and rumblings of sours getting rid of fox too. I'd think they think Melo and Wemby would make them nuclear out west.

      Well he somehow had 12 preseason carries for not playing. He also has 20 carries in the regular season, not three. He has actually played in about 7% of the offensive snaps for this regular season(33% of the special teams snaps). This isn't stuff you have to make up, these are very easily referenced statistics, man.

      It's not common for a RB to recover from two ACL tears in the same knee. It's fairly rare. You are correct that it isn't the career ender that it used to be but there is also the fact that we appear to have largely moved on with the additions of Dowdle and Etienne.  Dobbins is a very good example. He has basically missed 54% of his career regular season games since he came into the league in 2020. It will end up being 57% at the conclusion of this season. It's a big contributing factor to why he is on this third NFL team in 6 years. It's certainly possible that may be 4 by the beginning of next season. I would say there is very little chance that Brooks ever contributes in any meaningful way in Carolina. Possibly with another team but I am extremely skeptical of his future here because of those injuries and because of the roster.
