Carolina Panthers' Combine Preview: Top Targets, Sleepers and Prospects to Watch

I know you guys hate Bleacher Report but this article was pretty good info. Lists pre combine 40s and previews for a lot of targets that the huddle talks about.

@JeffRisdon Watched more Clemson over the last day. The gap between Sammy Watkins and any other WR is as wide as any since Megatron & Bowe in '07.

[Mr. Scot]

Gettleman has a combine presser scheduled for Thursday at 3pm.

I just want to take every chance to remind people this is Dave Gettleman's second combine as GM ever. You have to say 2013 was a smashing success. We hit on 3 defensive players and picked up some others via undrafted free agency. We also scouted Travis Bond and Tavarres King and signed them later in the season. Some of our more radical Panther fans are convinced we will never draft an offensive player. This is only our second draft under a new regime and I can't wait to see how it pans out.

[Mr. Scot]

I severely doubt we'll draft an OT in the first.

 

WR/TE or DB will be the first pick.

 

I wanna see what we do in free agency before I'm ready to say that.

 

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Who sacrificed what to which heathen god to stack this draft at so many positions of need?

[bababoey]

Yeah, I could end up looking foolish but judging from how The Giants have drafted in the past decade, I think the position will be filled via free agency and/or in the late rounds.

 

Everyone always talks about what the giants did while Gettleman was there but he was never the guy in charge when he was with the giants.  Maybe he would have gone with more OL in the first round, who knows.  Its hard to say.

[Pejorative Miscreant]

I lime a lot of the players in the BR slideshow. Dont usually find the site that great but this is not that bad.

That's not going to give us any indication either way. Remember Gettleman's offseason philosophy: patch needs with FA's, draft BPA. Since we don't have a lot of cap, the FA's signed won't be big names. Our current need positions won't become positions of absolute strength after FA, so those positions are still 1st day draft options. You're better off watching the combine and doing mock drafts if you want to predict what we'll do.

My son took off my glasses right as I started reading & the name registered as "@JerryRichardson" & I was all...

Valid point.

 

I'm not always big on predicting what we will do, mind you.  I tend more to talk about what I think we should do.

 

(those two things rarely match) :lol:

[stirs]

Not a lot we haven't talked about on here except the sleepers.

 

I mentioned WR Jeff Janis that other day in NFL draft forum as a possible 6th rounder or so.  Kid is very fast

Bowe isn't exactly a bum...

[micnificent28]

Bowe isn't exactly a bum...

Yea but compare him to megatron is like comparing payton manning to jay cutler.
