Do We Double Dip Again?

Due to the success of bringing Kawann and Star together at the same time, will Gettleman and Rivera be more prone to double dip on tackle? Or do we likely get a guard and a tackle? I'm comfortable with Amini, but I don't know who will be the other guard as the entire o-line is looking like a mystery right now heading into this offseason.

I think all it is is an indicator that he's willing to do that if the talent is right. That's something that I bet a lot of gms can't say they'd be willing to do. Last time it worked and because they both looked so good this season they made the individual picks look better than if we'd just taken one.

It's all depending. If most of the the tackles are taken then the likelihood is when we pick at #28 we will most likely pick up a second round graded tackle! So with gettleman going on BPA we will most likely pick up a receiver, but again it depends on what teams pick before us and whether we trade down, I mean if all the first round graded tackles are gone and so are the high graded receivers then il have no problem with drafting down

I think it's possible, I just don't think it may be necessary.  If Gross comes back and all our injured Oline guys come back we really don't need to draft more than one tackle to be in pretty good shape.  The only other double dip possibility would be WR which, if we are going to be a running team,  we may not want to draft highly more than one rookie WR.  I mean, there are only so many snaps for a WR in our offense.  If we keep Smith, Ginn, bring in a decent vet FA and draft one good prospect those are probably our top 4 guys right there.  How often would the second WR draftee see the field?

 

That doesn't mean it's out of the question for us to draft more than one offensive lineman or WR, just that we may not have a need to double dip on either position with our first two picks.

 

It's not like last years DT position where we had a gaping hole and nobody around worth a damn to fill them.

Not at OT.  

 

I don't know why so many people are convinced that there is a likelihood that we're gonna double dip on OT, when there was no Meanie or Kug this past season. I think we may take one high if they are the BPA, but we have to get some offensive play-makers in here. We just have to. So if anything, I can see us double dipping at wide-out.

    • You found out what I said months ago. Its sort of simple, if Panthers/you want a edge....*Panthers need a starting edge that gets hurries/sacs/press/etc* You almost have to use the 1st on edge. Just the way it is, of course some .01% Panthers get lucky and a 4th rounder shocks the world and becomes a day one starter.    I hate double talk, I also feel the Panthers need a top backup ala Addison or Al Wallace. Sooooo I do feel the need to add one in mid rounds if possible. I mean Pat Jones is on the MAYBE cut list, Panthers need space, he had a back injury and had little impact on field. So....... It goes back to adding talent, Panthers need talent, young talent.  OT- In my finding Im able to land a "stud" in round 2 more than 50% of the current rating. Even in the 3-5 rounds, (duke lad) Im able to get a OT within the top ava. I normally draft two OTs with one must play LT at some point. So I feel the draft is weak, but one of the strong point and it helps panthers is the OT spot. A few of those OT in mid, some will be starters this year.    I posted this else where, but here is the best outcome for the Panthers given the mock draft finding- 1st- Edge 2nd- LT/OT 3rd- ILB 4th- BPA/safety/center/WR/OT/etc 5th- OT/edge/C/DL/TE 5th- """" 6th- QB/Punter/safety/NB/OL The draft feels weak at 80% of the spots and teams Im sure are on this thought too. This past draft feels much better and deeper against the pool There is no Mike green or Nic scro in the late 2nd. There is no Evans sitting there in late 5th. There is not even a Prince level edge in the 3rd by my finding. I feel Panthers for sure new to draft 2 OTs and I high believe drafting 2 edges, one must be a 1st tho. Then the remaining 3 picks one late on QB, one on ILB, and the last one BPA. Honestly the FA looks bad too, the huge problem is the amount of needed for Panthers and there's not enough cap space or draft picks to fill even half the issue this season. Its goes back to just add the best talented players possible, *so long they do not play OG, strong safety, Dbrowns spot, and Tmacs spot. Add talent everywhere else, cause its lacking.......Even CB with horn struggling and Mike Jack on a one year deal, Thor coming off injury. There room for a mid or even 2nd rounder being(ewwww) use at CB. I prefer what I posted above. Happy drafting 45!!  
    • Yes.  We actually had a coach we paid millions to who burned a 6th for a long snapper strictly for the lulz.
    • A complete and total cancer to the locker room
