The list so far (since we love offseason lists):

9 - Luke Keuchly, linebacker, Panthers
10 - Roddy White, wide receiver, Falcons
11 - Ryan Kalil, center, Panthers
12 - Carl Nicks, guard, Buccaneers
13 - Darren Sproles, running back, Saints
14 - Charles Johnson, defensive end, Panthers
15 - Gerald McCoy, defensive tackle, Buccaneers
16 - Vincent Jackson, wide receiver, Buccaneers
17 - Tony Gonzalez, tight end, Falcons
18 - Dashon Goldson, safety, Buccaneers
19 - Sean Weatherspoon, linebacker, Falcons
20 - Lavonte David, linebacker, Buccaneers
21 - Steve Smith, wide receiver, Carolina Panthers
22 - Steven Jackson, running back, Atlanta Falcons
23 - Josh Freeman, quarterback, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
24 - Marques Colston, wide receiver, New Orleans Saints
25 - Da'Quan Bowers, defensive end, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
 

Still waiting for spots:

 

Matt Ryan, quarterback, Falcons
Julio Jones, wide receiver, Falcons
Drew Brees, quarterback, Saints

Jimmy Graham, tight end, Saints
Jahri Evans, offensive guard, Saints

Cam Newton, quarterback, Panthers
Greg Hardy, defensive end, Panthers
Jon Beason, linebacker, Panthers

Doug Martin, running back, Buccaneers
Darrelle Revis, cornerback, Buccaneers
 

I'm kind of feeling like Cam is the only remaining Panther that's going to make it.  And it looks like Yas thinks the Bucs have 9 out of the top 25 players in the South.

Its just pure BS if Bowers is ranked on the list and Hardy is not on it.

Yup and his reasoning for Bowers was strictly based on his potential this year. Sure, Bowers has the ability to get 10+ sacks this season if he can manage to stay healthy for the first time, but you're telling me Hardy in a contract year with the additions of Star and Short and better depth at DT all around doesn't scream potential to get 10 maybe 15+ sacks? He already broke 10 last year.

Olsen is a better TE than Gonzalez at this point. Olsen has to actually get open, where Tony G pushes his way off into the endzone.

 

Also Darren Sproles isn't as good Jonathan Stewart and actually I think Deangelo Williams is still better than Sproles even at his age.

Hardy is going to miss the list, because the goons at espn literally don't even know who he is. All he did last year was put up 10+ sacks with one of he weakest DT groups in the league.

With Short, Star, and Edwards in the middle of the line. Charles and Hardy could go for 12+. This

Might be our best d-line since 03. Our front seven is the best in the league, and is going to make our secondary look competent. Our defense is easily top ten, and is by far the best it's been since we drafted Cam.

I'm a homer from hell but we are going to win the NFC south...

And Espn can suck our hot salty chocolate balls.

    • Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding. 
    • Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership
    • After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
