1st. Dontari Poe, DT, Memphis

I've been holding off on drafting a defensive lineman early for quite some time, but at this point in time I've come to think of it as the best option. With Janoris Jenkins and Dre Kirkpatrick both sliding and Morris Claiborne likely not, that leaves my choice to be between Michael Brockers, Quinton Coples, and Dontari Poe. While one might argue that replacing Hardy with Coples might be the answer, but the DT position has been a question mark for years now. Ron Edwards is an average at best veteran coming off of injury. Andre Neblett is on his last year of contract and has been a great rotational player, but not a dominating starter. Poe will require two men to block, and while Brockers and Coples are amazing athletes, having a big boy that could play the NT spot in 3-4 looks would also allow the defense more flexibility. He'll also be a big help in defending the run, which was something that the Panthers were awful at.

2nd. Janoris Jenkins, CB, North Alabama

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
