Panthers want Star

[Ja Rhule]

CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports the Panthers have shown a "lot of interest" in Utah DT Star Lotulelei.

The Panthers are far from settled on the interior of their defensive line, but it would be a major surprise if Lotulelei tumbled all the way to their pick. La Canfora believes Carolina is likely Lotulelei's "floor," meaning he wouldn't fall any further

Pretty much if he's there, he's our pick. Jets said they will pick offesive weapon with 1 of their first rounders. Apparently they after Tavon Austin so looks like Tavon is going to gang green unless someone jumps to #8.

I think Star or Trade back is a solid game plan.

Breaking fuging news here. I mean, really? This had to be reported.

Maybe we see how the draft plays out, and then we try to leap frog a team or two with a fourth round pick or some such if Star makes it that far.

Agreed. If he's not on the board when we pick, I hope we're able to find a trading partner. We need all the depth we can get, especially if we can't get a top guy at 14.

You almost know SD will pick OT, Miami will pick CB and Jet will pick DE/WR.

I'm down with that. I still love Allen but I seem to be one of the few people in the world who would take him at 14. Trading back or landing Star seems to be out best bet right now.

[Ja Rhule]

Saints and Dallas both want Vaccaro. Don't be surprise if we trade with Dallas.

I am off tavon bandwagon because he is not going to be on the board...personally I want star or DJ fluker or chance warmack. we have to get bigger up front

I'd be happy with both of those. I think Star is worth an extra mid-round pick, and I think you could get Allen (who I like) while moving back a bit. Gettleman has worked a trade phone, so I'm sure he's no stranger to a deal.

I dont care who we take as long as we get better. I'm just so excited for tomorrow that I need to go make a cream pie.

I'm praying that Star falls.

Oh please. I'm wishing upon a falling Star.

Sorry. It's early.

[JawnyBlaze]

I sure as hell hope they want Star. He's my dream pick.
