2014 Mock Draft

11. Carolina Panthers: Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson

Watkins has been a star at Clemson since his freshman year and is a legit No. 1 wide out. At the start of the 2014 season, Steve Smith will be 35. Just how productive can he be at that age?

I would sacrifice a Panthers fan life for Marquise Lee

Sorry if this has been posted remove or whatever

I think walter's 2014 mock has us getting Marquis Lee. I do think next year is probably the year we go for Smitty's replacement in the 1st, if there's a guy that fits the value. Future LT or CB1 could also be targets, obviously depending on how this year goes.

If we improve, the way I think we will. We may have to trade up or get a WR via FA. You know that's how it'll work. We get down to what should be the last chance to grab a top tier WR and have some time to groom him,before Smittys done. And we have a breakout year (and I hope we do) and miss out on one.

Who does Marquise Lee play for?

Who was the last USC skill position player who didn't disappoint in the NFL?

Yeah... do not want.

 

Granted there has been more busts recently (Colbert, Williams, Jarrett), there have been successful ones in the past. (HOF) Lynn Swann, Curtis Conway, (HOF) Frank Gifford, Keyshawn Johnson, Bob Chandler,Earl Mccullough.

 

Colbert, Williams or Jarrett never will come close to the talent that Lee possesses. I would argue that all three were possession receivers while Lee is more of a playmaker with speed, elusiveness, vision. Besides, #3 receivers never really had a chance on a John Fox team. Actually don't think they get much of a chance in 90% of any teams.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
