1 Indianapolis *Andrew Luck QB Stanford

9 Carolina *Dontari Poe DT Memphis

34 Indianapolis *David Wilson RB Virginia Tech

40 Carolina *Donta Hightower LB Alabama

65 Indianapolis Zebrie Sanders OT Florida State

Carolina No 3rd Round pick!

I would say that Corolina has 2 good solid picks, if this is the way they go. Only Draft Day will tell the tale.

I'd take it. Woudn't be mad with Poe in the first, I just see Fletcher Cox, and Jerel Worthy as better prospects.

As for Hightower, we would probably have to move Beason to WLB with TD coming off the bench and Anderson starting at SLB. I would love this if we are planning to switch to the 34 defense. However, I would not play Donta inside just for the simple reason of getting the best twelve out there. I'd do something like this in a 34...

WLB-Greg Hardy/

MLB-Jon Beason/Thomas Davis

MLB-James Anderson

SLB-Donta Hightower

I would not be mad about that at all. I prefer Poe over Coples and Kuechly if that's what DT our staff thinks is best for us. Same with Cox...and Brockers. If we get something solid to put next to Ron, that fills a major major hole...and that kid is a mammoth haha

Kuechly or Hightower...maybe even Upshaw plus Beason Anderson Davis would be 4 decent LBs to use pending injuries due to the rate at which we've been going through LBs.

Other than Coples I would actually strongly consider Perry. I like tht kid

...and Claiborne is the only CB at would consider at 9

So yeah, that would be a nice first two rounds in a deep CB draft...we could snag Steed in the 4th.

    • I still think a Dalton thumb injury screwed us 2 seasons in a row.  It allowed the Bryce Young comeback after whoever finally gave a greenlight on being done w/ him 2 weeks into the season.  and I think we saw a soft benching this year and they wanted to see Andy run it with this crew.  But Andy hurting his thumb killed us from seeing whatever he has at full go in a game.  Bryce Young was never hurt those 2 games to the degree which called him to miss a game IMO.  You don't see QBs sit for such minor things....unless you just want to use it to explore and see. 
    • I was quite critical of Ron Rivera's game day coaching decisions and management over his years here. Especially when he coached super conservative playing not to lose. But at the end of the day he never had to try and win with a Bryce Young. John Fox had to try and win with a Bryce Young and he completely checked out and got himself fired. The only. Only solution right now. Is to remove the anchor around our necks from the equation and move forward however we can and assess all the moving parts with the time we have left so we can move forward accordingly in the offseason. Not doing so is only going to further delay evaluating what we have in this young roster and this staff led by Canales.
    • Sometimes GMs try outsmart everyone by picking a player they think has the physical tools and can be coached up but Legette is an example what happens when that doesn't work out. Teams that are already contenders with a full roster can take those chances. The Eagles, for example, could have rolled the dice on a guy like Legette. But the Panthers needed, and still need, to draft guys who are ready to play now in the first round. Legette wasn't that guy and there were much better options available.
