I voted WR simply because I think it's likely that the top OTs are gone and there will be better value available at WR.  Guys I'd have no problem with at #28 who might actually be on the board include:

 

Brandin Cooks

Jordan Matthews

Kelvin Benjamin

Allen Robinson

 

Probably in that order.

This. Minus Kelvin Benjamin and adding Lee because it appears he might be there.

I'm just admittedly jaded by USC WRs.  The guy looks like the real deal, but so have several before him who didn't work out.  A USC WR who was widely touted as a top 10 pick who starts sliding and all of a sudden looks likely to be a late 1st round or 2nd round pick?  Yeah, we've seen that story play itself out before.  Right here in Charlotte.  Twice.

I want BPA regardless of position (excluding positions where we are set for years to come...MLB and QB for example). I think that we all, myself included, get caught up in positional needs when we should really just be looking for the best football player.

 

Normally I'd agree, but we just have such glaring holes at OT and WR that need has to take a bit of precedence at those positions.  Now obviously you're not going to draft a huge reach if there's a clearly better talent available, but given fairly closely ranked prospects, I would hope we'd hedge toward need.  Plus, with the WR depth in this class, I just can't see all the worthy guys being gone by #28 and I wouldn't want to risk waiting until the 2nd because I have a sneaking suspicion that there's going to be a big run on WRs in the 2nd round.  If we don't jump on one in the first, I fear that we'll be sadly disappointed by the available options at #60.

either LT or WR or top pass catching TE.

 

i eant us to double dip  OT and WR and pick up another CB.

 

I'd love to see a double dip at both OT and WR.  I think the depth in the class is definitely there at both positions to do it if we chose to do so.  Definitely at WR.  I think we're really fuging up if we don't end up with two WRs out of this draft.  This has a chance to be the strongest WR draft since '96 (Keyshawn Johnson, Terry Glenn, Marvin Harrison, Eric Moulds, Armani Toomer, Moose, T.O., Joe Horn).

I would say OL here, but unless Lewan freefalls, I'd say the value one would get @28 from a WR would be greater than you would get with a tackle that far down. 

 

Yep, Lewan is the one OT that I'd jump on in a heartbeat at #28.  Maybe Martin, but I just haven't seen enough ND football to form a legit opinion.  I know some are concerned about his size and arm length, but he's a near clone of Jordan Gross physically and I think we can all agree that #69 played pretty well for us.

    • Steelers fans will take over the Stadium and city   It will be unbearable  worse for me, on the west coast, resigned to the nfl network and you know it will be a steelers broadcast team.    It was ungodly bad with sheduer 2 weeks ago  Last game, tried listening  on panthers radio and  watching  on espn live last week but the delay between the 2 drove me nuts  so as bad as they were playing, found something else to do 
    • I mean I don't have a personal axe to grind with any human on the Panthers roster.  I know AT shouldn't be dominating the slot. The fact he is....is because we have a horrific front office/management.   I can part with any player.   The goal is a winning team.   the root of the AT ranting, is really just looking out for BY (people like to call me BY hater though).  A QB who was basically screwed from day 1 when we got drafted here.  I went hard at Carolina then too for setting him up to fail. Because it was obvious from the jump the setup was failure by design.  Which was true.   I said Frank bad zero sense with BY.  Miles Sandes made double zero sense.  The players they got in FA made zero sense.     Either you build a BY O.....or you move on from BY.  I have said I am cool either way.  We are in no man's land and have been there since they day we drafted him.   
    • It's the QB school guy mentality. Thielen is a shitty #1 option so aaarrrrggghhhh FUUUUUUUUUG HIM!!! This dude SUCKS!!! Yeah, Thielen should no longer be a #1 option at this stage in his career. He honestly shouldn't be a starter at this point in his career. But it's not an Adam Thielen issue that we've had to ask him to do that.
