Nfl.com Analysts Mock Drafts...

We have 8 dt on the roster.

What does that mean?

Our civilization uses a decimal system for counting. The number 8 would look like this if you were counting items, * * * * * * * * with each * representing one item. DT is a position in the sport of football known as defensive tackle. Roster is the name a team uses when speaking of their players who play positions in the sport. So 8 dt on the roster means eight defensive tackles who play for the team.

Since April 2nd, four analysts have done updated mock drafts and two of them having us take Dontari Poe, one has us taking Fletcher Cox, and one has us taking Coples. From everything I've been coming across, Poe is thought to be sliding but still, thought it was interesting.

The most recent mock is from Albert Breer and he has us taking Coples. I just think if Claiborne is off the board (and I do think he'll be off the board and will be going to Tampa) we will either take Kuechly or trade down. Just my opinion though...

I think it is safe to say it will between DT and DE.I am also assuming Ron Edwards is penciled in at NT.Given that who fits the Jimmy Johnson U tackle or DE? My guess is Cox or Brockers.

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
