What's Your Dream One-Two Punch For The Draft?


Recommended Posts

I was thinking that the talent being produced in the first two round could lead to two potential starters for us.Without any trade back scenarios or someone dropping, with this in mind who are the two players that you'd want picked in the first and second round and why? The combinations are pretty varied.

Mine would have to be Fletcher Cox and Janoris Jenkins.

Cox to me is the best pick we can make at #9 right now(barely beating Kuechly), he's scheme diverse and has the body of work backing up his play. He can kick to the outside or play the tackle.

Jenkins is just too good to pass up in the second round, regardless of his issues or all the flags. His skills are just amazing and seeing him and Gamble would make me cream my pants.

What about your gents?

Michael Floyd and Chandler Jones

Floyd will be BPA at #9. Jones offers the pass rush that Rivera is looking for. A little raw, but has nice speed and strength to turn into a great end to pair up with CJ (with Hardy and Keiser coming in on rotation).

at first pick ill be happy with whoever as long they are evaluated the same way as cam was.

second... probably the best corner available. i'd like to actually see if we could move up a few spots into a late first to get janoris jenkins.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
