Cb Trumaine Johnson Visited W/ Panthers

[Ruff]

this draft is absolutely stacked at corner

I thought the same thing. There is seriously 3-5 guys who are potential 10-year #1s, then there's like 6-8 more guys who are definitely solid #2s. It's ridiculous.

[PackPanther]

I would really hate it if we took him in the 2nd Round. High second round would be a major reach on him. I dont think I would mind him in the 4th...

[HeatCheck]

Based on the visits it'll be DE then DT or vice versa

Still more than a month away, don't overanalyze.

[MHS831]

Seems to me that we have guys with his talent level already. Either go elite, or go DL.

[Snake]

I have given up trying to figure out the Panthers draft priorities. We are not going to know who they draft till they do.

I really don't know where you all are getting this "He's a Safety/NB" crap. Mark my words he'll be an outstanding corner in 2-3 years. 2nd might be a slight reach (I'd say he has a late 2nd early 3rd grade) based on perceived value but considering his potential not so much. He is one of best athletes at CB in this draft. We don't have a 3rd so if they like him they better pick him in the 2nd. Maybe a trade down is possible and pick up an extra pick.

[The Special One]

If Claiborne, Coples, and Ingram are gone by #9.....and we can't trade out. OT Riley Reiff would be the safe pick or we might have to reach for CB Stephon Gilmore.

That's the problem. We need a starting caliber corner right now. A guy who can step into the #2 CB spot oposite Gamble.

That is a ridiculous statement.

He can. And considering his size he isn't nearly as much of a liability against those bigger WR that always torch us. He's a small school kid so it might take a couple of seasons to get to his potential. Which is usually true of almost all rookies. Its his ball skills are what make me so excited. The kid is going to be a playmaker.

[The Special One]

That is a ridiculous statement.

Gilmore will be the 2nd cornerback taken after Claiborne.

[Ruff]

Gilmore will be the 2nd cornerback taken after Claiborne.

Completely disagree. I think, even with all of the negative things that have happened to him, Dre Kirkpatrick is still the second CB off the board. The Cowboys have already expressed loads of interest in him.

[koolkatluke]

I like Turman and getting him in the 2nd seem like where he is riseing to. 6'2 CB don't come around often which we need with all these 6'3 and up wr. Plus he's know as a sure tackler. I think he come in and starts. It's not like capt is good.
