Draft Rumors from Walterfootball.com

Just wanted to share a rumor today I saw on walterfootball.com. I know some people don't like this site but this guy knows someone in the Panther's org bc last year he called them not selecting a DT leading up to the draft. He even mentioned that they would not select one and they didn't even though everyone had Fletcher Cox mocked to us.

So take it with a grain of salt.

Here's the link:

Here's what was said:

"April 9: Sheldon Richardson and Xavier Rhodes are the favorites to go No. 14 to the Panthers, but Tavon Austin and Kenny Vaccaro are also in play. - Panthers source"

but we have yet to meet with 3 of those guys, so the next 2 weeks should be interesting.

If you go by the list of players we have met with or are scheduled to meet with, Austin is the only guy.

This seems to be a popular opinion with the anti-Richardson crowd (in particular), but the reality is that we have no idea whether or not we have met with the other guys. We only know what the media tells us, and they only know what they have been told (usually by the agents). Not every meeting is advertised. Also we surely met with them at the combine, and I am sure we attended their pro days. So it isn't like we have ignored them, even if we haven't had a formal meeting...yet. Not to mention that the biggest part is the scouting and research that the team does.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
