Meh, it's alright. I give it a C+.

1. Fletcher Cox, DT- Great Pick (A+)

2. Trumaine Johnson, CB- Why pick Johnson when Jenkins is still on the board? (D)

3. No Pick

4. Keenan Robinson, LB- Another Great Pick (A+)

5. Bryan Anger, P- We get the best punter in the draft but taking Powell or Butler in the 7th wouldn't be a bad choice either (B-)

6. Marvin McNutt, WR- If we are going to draft a KR/PR/WR, it needs to be the best one in the draft in Joe Adams (C+)

6. Kevin Koger, TE- No need to waste a roster spot on a tight end who probably couldn't beat out Barnidge, with a 6th round pick (F)

7. Jacques Smith, DE- Should probably pick up a defensive end earlier and spend a 7th rounder on an offensive lineman (D+)

Overall Grade- C+

- I see two really good starters in Cox and Robinson

- A great punter in Anger

- A good back up at corner and possibly an average safety in Johnson

- A 3rd or 4th string wide out in McNutt

- And two practice squad players in Koger and Smith.

I agree for the most part but i think Johnson will be better then you think.

I don't like him speed wise. If we were in any other division, I would be fine with Johnson. However, having to go up against Roddy White, Julio Jones, Marques Colston, and Vincent Jackson twice a year leads me to believe that we need one of the big five in coverage skills and speed. (Claiborne, Kirkpatrick, Gilmore, Jenkins, or Hayward).

1. Fletcher Cox, DT, Mississippi State

2. Trumaine Johnson, CB, Montana

4. Keenan Robinson, LB, Texas

5. Bryan Anger, P, California

6. Marvin McNutt, WR, Iowa

6. Kevin Koger, TE, Michigan

7. Jacquies Smith, DE, Missouri

The only pick I don't like is Koger. Right now, we're OK at TE. And the fact that we need to add quality depth on the OL. One of those first four picks needs to go OL.

I like McNutt. Not a burner, but he's a big-body WR with good hands. And Smith is a bit undersized, but is a speed-rusher off the edge.

Like it... except for the TE pick.

He looks faster on tape then he does running the 40'. He has game speed and his size is something you can't find on most starting CB. Plus he is a pretty good Ball Hawk and great tackler for a CB.

He's not a tad slow, he's real slow and yes, most teams looking at him now are looking at him as a safety.

4.61 in the 40 at the combine.

Know what? If he's a smart player that knows formation and position and how to play the ball in the air? I'll take that over a clueless speedburner who depends on his athleticism to make plays all day long.

Got a point, Gamble can always match up against White, Jackson, and Colston. Just have to expect whoever are CB is to be able to handle Julio Jones.

      Which Round Will Carolina Draft Sawyer Robertson?

      No matter what we still need a QB2 with potential to be a QB1. Keep throwing QBs at the wall until we find someone who sticks.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      By strato · Posted

      Lot of different agendas dictating opinions.  I don’t think it was the best use of money with Hunt, specifically, but the concept of OL, I am a fan. I didn’t complain a ton because I am a believer in winning up front, on both sides of the ball. I’d rather have stout fronts than fancy WRs. I have complained some about Hunt not being worth his deal, after seeing him get pushed around in a game or two. It’s no crusade. And have complained in the context of shorting the defense.   They have leveled out the FA imbalance with the dual big signings this offseason, and it has always been the draft picks I am most protective of. Anyway The picks are the real imbalance. If you did a trade chart value of the picks we directly gave up for Bryce, and added the support picks invested for skill players, and put that on one side… then put the little 3 3rd rounders and a 2nd that the defense got over three years on the other it would be hugely out of balance. I just want the balance restored. Defense is still owed.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      I'm one of the ones that won't let it go because it didn't solve the problem. We didn't address the center position which was a huge mistake. We were in position to easily take 2 or the top IOL. Instead of drafting JPJ over XL or Frazier over Brooks, we relied on an oft injured guard to center conversion and lo and behold, it failed as predicted. XL looks like a 1 year college wonder and an injured Brooks hasn't even surpassed Eric Shelton.  Bryce was also benched for poor performance, so the issue that many claimed was solely bad oline play wasn't. It didn't fix him bailing out of tight pockets because of being unable to see the field or him refusing to work on his atrocious footwork. Then there's the $$$. Lewis got a good guard payday. Hunt got a tackle payday. Pay tackles, draft guards, if you can.  I have no issues addressing problems through FA. It was not addressing C at all that's been the issue and still has been. Ryan Kalil was the anchor of our offensive line. We had years of solid center play and it showed. Now we're still piecemealing the center position with an expensive oline and it's still a shitshow. Why? Because the player responsible for what happens on the line presnap has little to no experience doing it. We did acquire a FA center this year finally. We'll see how much that impacts the line.  Spending on a center, whether it be through draft or FA is not bad. It's not a position that can have anyone just thrown in with no drop off in performance. A great center lifts the play of the guards on each side.  I don't like how we've built the line because we've ignored the hinge pin that everyone counts on every play. And the reality of the situation is, it didn't solve the actual problems with Bryce because those have nothing to do with the oline.
