The NFL needs to stop overdrafting these types and let them do what they should do - play another year of college ball.

I don't know that anyone hates Hunter at #8 I just don't think anyone expects him to be available at #8.

Yeah, I was thinking he's the type of guy who would be an end in odd fronts and move inside in even fronts like Aaron Donald. Not saying he's Aaron Donald, just saying a similar usage in terms of alignment.

It is? We gave up 4000+ yards and 35 TDs in the air. LOL

I don't want Shemar Stewart because his measurables scream potential #1 overall draft pick while his production screams UDFA. He's honestly a guy who should be mid-late round boom/bust pure athletic potential type of pick, not a potential top 10 pick. I'd like Jalen Walker because I just think he's a football player. Turn on a UGA game and see which guy just jumps off the screen on defense. It's him. Would not be mad about T-Mac or Warren.

Yeah, I can see him potentially being really good but I think he's more likely to be an underwhelming disappointment. Maybe not an outright bust but just meh. Like if we took this guy on the third round, yay. But top 10? Damn...

BINGO Stewart and his "UDFA just hoping he can land a camp invite" production being talked about as a potential top 10 pick is fuging wild. I know this draft is being perceived as light on top shelf talent but c'mon...

I mean, the reality is that the Panthers have basically only drafted three good WRs - Moose, Smitty, and DJ Moore. KB was on the way but that double whammy of tearing his ACL and loosing his mom derailed him. But then again, we've only drafted three 1st round WRs and never drafted a WR higher than #24.

But no OL. And no run D.

Truth. I'd love to have one but I also understand that great receivers seem to be a lot more valuable in fantasy football than in reality.

I mean, we did just have the worst scoring defense in NFL history. If there was a Jamarr Chase or Justin Jefferson type prospect I'd be pounding the table for him. I like T-Mac and wouldn't be mad about drafting him but I'm not going to pretend that we don't have at least equal needs on the defensive side of the ball.

I saw that and was like "who dafuq is Trey McBride?" 6 career TDs??? Highest paid TE ever??? LOLOLOL

The Pats' turned a 6th round pick into a 5th and a 7th. I guess that's a winning move.

I don't think we're going to get that type of offer. I'd also be leery of moving THAT far back. If we're moving back I'd still want to stay in the top 15 or so. We earned the #8 pick because we were trash. A few meaningless late season wins aside we honestly should've been drafting significantly higher where we would have significantly better options hence why I didn't want those wins.

He's the biggest wild card in the draft by far. I suspect evaluations swing wildly because his physical talent is pretty marginal and you have to watch him play on the college field and ask yourself "does this translate to the NFL?" If I'm being honest, I don't see it. I see the classic "really good college player who doesn't translate to the NFL". I basically see a poor man's Johnny Manziel. He is better than Manziel was when he's on schedule but just like Manziel a lot of his game relied on running around, buying time, and relying on his all-world talent at WR to bail him out and does that translate to the NFL with his physical skill set? I don't think it does. Everyone is looking for the next Mahomes but so far Mahomes is pretty much a unicorn on making that approach work in the NFL. I guess I'll give you Russell Wilson in his prime too but those guys both have (had) elite arm talent that Sanders simply doesn't have. Then you have the daddy factor massive wild card. Deion definitely has all the potential to turn into the NFL version of Lavar Ball and that has to be factored in, so you better LOVE the prospect and I'm just not seeing it.
