So..if we go defense in R1, who do you like the most?

[@bonafidebanter]

I'm 100% against drafting a defensive player with the first pick and I don't care who it is. We are 4 years in and the talent surrounding Cam Newton has declined every single year. We are already paying him 14.5 in 2015 and that number will only go up. That's like buying a Lamborghini and putting Walmart tires on it. This poo has to stop.

The man stood on the damn podium and said he wanted a WR. He said at the pro bowl he has faith in management to surround him with weapons and we all know what he meant.

What have people been saying all offseason? Gettleman's main goal was to surround Cam Newton with weapons. You can not afford to keep telling Cam to fug off. When Cam doesn't trust his teammates to get the job done, he turns into bad Cam. I don't have faith in Byron Bell as our starting LT or Jerricho Cotchery as our #1 WR that's fuging insane.

We were the #2 defense and one of the worst passing offenses in the league, now we have a down graded wr crew, and a worse oline, and y'all are sitting here discussing take another defensive player?? fug all that noise.

 

Wow, that escalated quickly!

Who's our starting LT? RT? RG?, you're comfortable with our WRs as is? Or are you just they type of guy the agrees with anything this organization does? It's ok to think for yourself. Deep down you know we have one of the worst offensive rosters if you take the qb out of it.

 

i just, i don't know man.  you've changed somehow.

Shazier, Fuller, Donald and Crighton. Dennard would be awesome if available but highly doubtful. I don't want a safety cause a signed two former pro bowlers and we have Godfrey and Lester. I love Varrett but I don't think he's round one talent because of size. Shazier would be a great option for Davis's replacement.

so long as aceboogie hates it i'm on board

Unless Ha-Ha falls, I'd prefer going CB in the secondary. Shazier would also be great IMO, but almost a  "wasted" pick if TD holds up this season.

 

I won't exactly like the pick being a defensive player...but at the same time, keep the strengths strong. Especially since there will be OTs and WRs to be had in the 2nd/3rd. That said, here's to hoping OL or WR is the 1st pick, preferably with one of top 2nd tier guys falling into our laps.

That didn't answer the question.

I would take Shaizer.. No doubt in my mind.

As long as we don't draft another white LBer who's last name starts with K... things might get a bit awkward if Thomas Davis sits out...

Jean-Baptiste!!

How is he not up there?

You gotta think of what our defense likes to do. Jam the receivers and knock them off their routes. The guy is great at that and has great ball skills as a converted receiver.

Camon dude

Hence the "other" category. He's a riser and I can see him being snagged late r1 or r2.

The premise of the thread is "If we draft a defensive player, who do you like". You shunned the thread and went on a pointless diatribe rather than answering the question. Of course most of us want offensive players ideally an LT or a WR.

[PantherMan89]

Fuller. He fills a need and I think would excel in our defense
