SB Nation Mock Draft with Trades

I could see all these trades going down.   Hate to see Clowney in Atl but it is all possible.

 

I like the Benjamin pick at 28 and it is hard to argue with a CB in the 2nd. 

 

I think we are a bit more in need of a OT than a CB but it is a need,  Round 3 would have to focus on OT.

It’s the line agents sell to get clients on board. It’s the line players sell themselves to remain confident throughout the draft process. It’s the line the mock draft-building media sells fans. When it comes to Johnny Manziel's draft future, it only takes one team to make him the face of its franchise.

Falcons have too many holes and lack of depth to trade up.

 

Kinda sorta.  They obviously need a pass rusher.  Clowney would fill that bill and Atlanta has shown if they covet a player they will do whatever is necessary to get him.  (ie J. Jones)

 

Swapping first and giving up their 2nd might get it done.

 

The thought of Clowney chasing Cam twice a year isn't something I cherish.

    • I liked him when he was at Michigan because I'm a Wolverine homer. After that... 
    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.
