With A Deep Draft Of Def. Players, Panthers Can Get....

Players like DT Thompson from Clemson to compete with Fua and veteran Edwards as a run stopper in the 2nd round. ;)

CB Hayward from Vandy to compete with Hogan and Butler in the 4th round & OLB Trevathan from Kentucky to groom for T. Davis in the 5th round. :)

Previously, I mentioned a wide receiver in the first like Blackmon and Floyd to grow with our quarterback Cam. :D

I wish you wr people get a life. If gettis or lafell. Were drafted in the 1st round. These stupid threads wouldn't be happening. But you have to have a shinny new toy at any cost. Our defense gives up 485 points and we have the 5th scoring offense with no offseason and a rookie qb. But you still need a flashy wr. I just don't get it. I could see if the defense stoped any body but they even let the colts. Get 21 points.

Why didn't you just put this in your other thread? Outside of maybe a few options in the second round (Jerrel Worthy for example) I just don't see us drafting a DT outside of the first round. We either draft a DT in the first round or we don't draft one at all until possibly really late in the draft. We are stocked at average DT talent. We either go big or go home on that position in this draft.

To continue on my above point. It just doesn't make any sense to further clog up the DT position with 2-5th round talent, when we have two 3rd's from last years draft as well as various other pieces from FA from last year already there. Fua and McClain with most definitely have progressed from last year, and outside of freak talents like Suh, DT's are very rarely dominant their first year.

The only defensive players that make sense long term are Brockers from LSU as our Nose tackle and Fletcher from MSU as our Under Tackle.

Both would be a mid-teens selection and a trade down scenario and will add considerable depth to our line and extra picks in the draft.

At defensive ends, you have players like Ingram and Coples that seem out of place or inconsistent.

Coples seems like a J. Peppers 2.0 player and would be a good pick, but I would rather go offense.

defense first plox

everyone that plays Madden would take an overpowered wide receiver over an overpowered defensive player

:cam:

Not true. I play too much Madden probly. I'm tired of seeing my defense get ran over. I'm remind of how much our DBs suck everytime someone throws a bomb.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      By Kentucky Panther · Posted

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.

      Favorite JAG 2020+

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
