MHS831

One of my favs.

Panthers move up to take the first name off my list---I am obviously pumped about this draft.

Washington took RGIII and Cousins the same year. Not sure that PJ is the answer as a backup, and if Carson plays well, he could get you a draft pick later.

Wouldn't it be odd if he drafted Strong? I'd have no problem with it. I like the OL you add.

Yes!! I overlooked S- Weatherford is a huge S that could be converted to LB if needed (Chinn-ish)--In fact, all of these names are names I would add.

Thought I would get a thread going. Here are some of my thoughts for round 5: Brandon Smith, Penn St. LB D'Marco Jackson, App St. LB Otito Ogbonnia , UCLA NT Tyreke Smith, Ohio State DE/Edge Isiah Likely, Coastal Carolina TE Charlie Kolar Iowa State TE Khalil Shakir Boise State WR

he has been declawed to keep from blinding himself.

The best thing about this is it an objective, data-informed statement that can't possibly be denied.

You are the most negative person on this board. A true contrarian, one that takes pride in rubbing against the grain. You don't believe most of what you say--you just need attention. Now you are interpreting facial expressions to criticize the GM. Really?

I would not be surprised to see a TE--we have 2, but a third that is more of a receiving weapon. There are some still on the board, fwiw. LB--yes WR--with Shi's recent legal troubles and the potential for Marshall to bust, we might need another WR. DT--not sure I love the depth.

I think 4 Corners got this from his parole officer.

We must all have a drunk uncle. I have 4.

Then you have a checkers partner if he gets put in the 4 corners of your cell. (kidding--I do not care what the doubters say)

Perhaps he might have wanted Howell?

Is Corral the answer? For a late third rounder, worth the risk. Even if he remains a career backup, we have a pretty good backup.

Something like 9 5/8 taking the joke literally here.

We should all count our blessings that the QBs everyone was guessing would go in the first two rounds fell to the late third. That enabled us to grab one without giving up a player or several picks. I am elated. Snow-you were absolutely right about Willis and I was wrong. That hurt.

Third next year and this year's fourth (late 4th round). I am OK with it as well.

If you would have told me last week we'd get Corral and Ikwonu in the draft, I would have taken it. I like Corral's release for our offense. Howell was not a good match (long ball) But Corral's quick release and mobility is interesting. He admitted to the off the field issues--but for a third rounder, worth the risk.

I am not a UNC homer, but I would rather have Howell or Corral. Ridder? I want to like him, but he just reminds me of a few players that busted.

I am not following your sarcasm, but your hindsight is spot on. So you are saying a player with a first round grade has to be drafted in the first round or the grade was wrong? The grade is based on value, not when he was actually picked. I would add that Strong from Chattanooga did not have a first round grade, but he was drafted in the first round. A lot of teams reach or pass on players based on need--not value.

I am not sure if drafting a QB would indicate how much they like the QB or how much they dislike the other QB options. Baker: diva, lives in stadium, cost almost $19m for 1 season, inconsistent, would cost us a pick to obtain him. Jimmy G: would be rehabbing during OTAs and mini camps, cost about $25m for a season, and was mediocre on a team with Deebo and a stacked defense.

Yes---there was talk of taking him at #2. Most people thought 2 QBs would go in the first round. I am not saying I would take him, but I was suggesting that someone in the late first might. Would you call Pickett a "late first" guy?

Strong could be there as well. Mark my words!!

I dunno---I can see Willis as a late first guy---and some really like 2020 Howell. I think there is about an 80% chance we move up for a QB tonight.
