I'm not sure who he meant by his 26th pick to Cleveland

 

He said Ryan Shazier, who is a LB

 

But he put CB, so that could mean Bradley Roby

 

I don't think we draft Moses at 28 even though he may be our first pick

 

I have a feeling someone is going to trade for our first in order to get Jimmy Garoppolo before the second round starts

Think he reaches a bit for the Panthers, glad he is no longer here

I think we're exactly in Moses' range (most have him as a late 1 early 2).  So he wouldn't be a reach at all.  And I think he truly will be in the discussion for 28, along with Verrett/Fuller at CB, and several WR's. 

 

Obviously, a lot will be determined by what we do in FA.  If we don't get at least a stopgap at LT, then the chances are that OT jumps way up on our team needs.  However, if the draft comes and we haven't picked up a FA and we don't go OT at 28, then I think we should steel ourselves for Bell as our starting LT.  Although I think WR will be their desired position, need may trump that playmaker they have talked about.

At 28, there will be no values at LT.  Moses, in my opinion is just a future RT.  Botonio is a possibility for LT because of his quickness, but don't think he starts his first season.

If we get Moses I hope it is in the second via a trade.

In that scenario I'd grab Benjamin or Cooks.

I'm not a huge Benjamin fan. I think he has potential, but he scares me (in a bad way) more so than any other WR. I'd prefer Cooks or OBJ if we go WR.

I've heard some analysts say that Moses looks more comfortable on the left side, but until this past year, played RT at Virginia.  So I think (hope) that he may be one of those guys that can be solid at either tackle spot.  And if we don't sign one in FA, he may be all that's standing between Bell starting at LT.

 

Now there are other guys that I have heard mixed things about.  Mewhort and Botonio are two guys that I've heard good things about, but some think both will be better suited at Guard, and Brandon Thomas is another guy I like, but he is probably only a RT.  So I guess we'll need to trust our talent evaluators to cut through the over analysis that we get from analysts..

I hear you - I like the idea of Benjamin more than what he has put on tape. He is very inconsistent in his effort and it's strange that he wasn't the #1 receiver on his team.

I'm liking OBJ the more of his tape that I watch. Would not at all be disappointed with him in the first.

If we would take Moses at 28, I don't see why we would trade down into the 2nd round to take him.

 

Hmmmmm

 

Generally, when you trade down, other teams give you picks to do so.  Why not get the same guy AND the extra pick?

 

That is the idea.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
