10. Carolina Panthers: Johnathan Hankins, Defensive tackle, Ohio State*

Hankins could be the first top-10 pick out of Ohio State since Vernon Gholston went sixth overall to the Jets in 2007. Hopefully, he’ll have a better NFL career. I’ve seen him slated anywhere from the teens to the second round, but I think he’s a top-10 guy. He occupies blockers, and though listed at 322 pounds, he is likely a bit heavier. He can step up and contribute right away for Carolina in 2013. This defensive line has some pieces, but still isn’t very good. They’ve been working on rebuilding it for years. Hankins could be the centerpiece.

I fail to see how far Star falls down to 9. KC picking an OT #1? That's sexy...

Otherwise, I like it.

Yea, I don't see that mock draft being terribly realistic at this point. If Star did fall that far, and a team that could use a DT like Tennessee is picking before us, I'd be hoping like hell our new GM trades up 2 spots (our 4th and 5th round picks? next year's 3rd? a player?) to grab him. In this mock's scenario, you'd have to believe Buffalo would be willing to trade down a couple spots for relatively cheap since their guy would almost certainly be still available at our spot.

Hasn't Hankins stock been falling as of late? I know its early though...no combine or pro days yet (or for a while).

yes it has.

The draftniks that have gone back and looked at his tape all say the same thing.....that he lacks a burst off the ball and is not a disruptive force. That is why his stock has fallen from Top 10 lock to maybe 2nd round pick.

Interested to see how he grades out at the combine.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
