Verret's only private work out was with, guess who?

[EMSMedic79]

I like the kid in the first round...but is he a "Blue Goose"?

[WOW!!]

I guess you'd rather we went 2-14 again so we could pick a more perfect prospect?

Is that going to happen if we don't pick Verret??

Omg then we need to draft him.

[Growl]

brent grimes is a top 10, maybe top 5 corner. honey badger was really good before he got hurt. captain is great in the slot and makes plays (has like four or five pick sixes? and was a good blitzer).

Brent Grimes was a solid at best corner for most of his career prior to having a one season resurgence in Miami which he may or may not continue. Matthieu doesn't even play CB, and players that play the nickel play there because they can't play outside. CBs that can't play outside don't get picked in the first round.

But by all means, you're right, each are Darrell Green type players.

No? No they aren't?

Well that was my point.

“All 6 1st-round wideouts could be gone before 28. All 5 tackles could be gone by 28.” - Mike Mayock, just now, on conference call

#Panthers

 

Bring forth the short CB

 

Had not heard the Mayock interview, but here and other places, we suspect that the top tier of WR's and OT's might be gone.

 

This leaves us to possibly look at BPA. 

Whether that is Shazier, Verrett, Fuller, who knows, but if we reach for a WR who has a second round grade, it would go against what Gman has been spouting.

 

Remember the pre draft presser where he said he would love a LT, a WR, and a "conner"

 

Might be Fuller or Verrett, doubt it is Shazier.  Just trying to prepare myself for next week this time as we all watch the draft.

#5 CB in the draft. love his attitude, hate the fact he stays hurt. 

[jtm]

Imo, Verrett is the best CB in this draft. Based on talent alone, not size:

(1) Verrett

(2) Dennard

(3) Roby

(4) Fuller

(5) Gilbert

No way this guy goes 1st round. Fuller and Dennard will go well before Verrett. I'll go crazy if the Panthers even consider this guy in the 1st.

Alot of people have said that nickel is harder to play just because there's so much more you have to do compared to playing outside. Especially for a young player, saying a guy plays nickel because he's not good enough to play outside is short sighted, different skill sets

[pantherphan96]

ESPN projects him to go in the 2nd round, CBS Sports has him either in the 1st or 2nd. As long as we get an OT in the first round, I wouldn't mind taking a flier on this guy in the 2nd. WR's are too volatile for me, and I most don't anything close to a single sure thing WR out there. Taking a WR around rounds 3-5 would be smarter. With our FA pickups I think any WR we draft outside the 1st or 2nd round becomes a project (hopefully one that works out better than Lafell/Gettis) with the veteran WRs we have now bridging the gap until they become playmakers or at least reliable 2s and 3s.

Stanley Jean Baptiste and Keith McGill are 2 guys that could be there in the second round with size and great skills. Just dont wont a small corner in the first round, I wouldnt mind a safety tho.

This is exactly the thinking that has got us in the mess we are in now.

We picked up a bunch of 3's and 4's type WR. Any Wr we draft is competing to start.

Both of those guys AND Pierre Desir could be there.

I like Verrett a lot too but damn, no way Gilbert comes in last of this group

 

Gilbert

Dennard

Verrett

Fuller

Roby

Verrett is a 1st round talent and many seems to agree.
