as Gettleman said only 5 picks this year and only 6 picks next year.

so sit tight, we only have to sweat 11 picks. theres the QBs still sitting there, no RBs have been taken, very few LBers off the board in the 1st, some highly regarded DTs still there... so plenty of players that we don't even need will come off the board.

we may or may not land Cyprien but you're looking at hunter, allen, cyprien, warford, ertz... there will be some very good high value players left at positions we need, no reason to throw away a 3rd here

I'd give up next years third. Eagles need a safety. They might take him.

Eagles in free agency signed Kenny Phillips, a starting safety from the Giants, and Patrick Chung, a starting safety from the Patriots. They could look for a guy for the long term, or just as a pure value pick, but they definitely have more pressing needs.

Thanks for talking some sense into me. I've just wanted Cyprien ever since it was determined that Star was a pipe dream and the both of them would be my dream draft assuming we get the best WR or offensive linemen available in the 4th.

I think it might be possible but not holding my breath. I would be very happy with Hunter, Warford, Ertz, or Cyprien. All of them would make huge impacts week 1.

I see Detroit going with a corner and Cincy with Lacy.

Lets hope thats the case.

I would go crazy nuts happy if we landed Cyprien.

Would be one of the best draft in years if we landed Star and Cyprien, two immediate impact players and future pro bowlers. I wouldnt care less to what we do after the 2nd.

I would truly be in awe if we landed Cyprien.

It would really make me never follow the draft as intently ever again until the day of, because if anyone said we would get Star and Cyprien over these last few weeks, they would be mocked.

The draft is a crazy process, and this year has been one for the books. We haven't started the second round either.

I think with Cyprien we make a big push to win the division this year by holding the Falcons and Saints to reasonable point totals in our match-ups with them.

Our offense should be able to abuse those defenses they have in ATL and NO if we can get back to a pro-style offense under Shula.

I honestly wouldn't even be disappointed if we snagged Cyprien then traded up to take the best WR or TE available...like Escobar, Dobson, Allen, etc.

Star + Cyprien = last pieces for Panthers to make the Playoffs

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
