UGA fan here. And no, we shouldn't.

RB doesn't deserve a 1st in the nfl anymore.

Late 2nd maybe, but that's if we were to move off from almost every single back on our roster excluding Tolbert.

I have to disagree with that. If you can get a player the caliber of an adrian peterson, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, etc you take him in the first

OK, sorry, it's okay to use a 1st on a guaranteed future hall of fame caliber RB that comes around about once every 15 years or so.

Offensive line, safety,CB and LB is biggest need in my opinion. I really wanna draft a replacement for Thomas Davis. How long does he have left and who can replace him considering AJ Klien will be replacing Blackburn?

I would only want Gurley if we couldn't find a player to fit any other needs.

If the opportunity presents itself, I think we go safety.  We've been all over the top safety prospects for the past two seasons.  The chips just fell in a way that there were better prospects available at other positions when we were on the clock.

 

I think both Gettleman and Rivera drool over having an elite, ball hawking safety playing behind this front seven.  IMO, our future starting safeties are Tre Boston and a kid sitting in a college classroom right now.

It wouldn't surprise me if Klein doesn't slide over to Davis' spot when he hangs up the cleats.  In today's NFL, your nickel package is essentially your base D.  A nickelback plays a lot more snaps than a strongside OLB.  In the Bucs game, I think we had a strongside OLB in the game for only 16 snaps while Benwikere played 40+ at nickel.

Well, Stewart is banged up again and DeAngelo still isn't healthy...

 

Eventually we are going to have to move on from Double Trouble. I am conflicted when it comes to TG3. On one hand, I don't know if the o-line is truly that bad or if Stew and DeAngelo simply can't run like they used to. Would Todd Gurley + Tolbert at least match the production of DeAngelo+Stew+Tolbert? On the other hand what is a RB worth in today's passing NFL, especially to a Panthers team that has so many other needs for starters and depth at key positions?

 

If Gurley is a Top 8 pick as Chuck suggests, I wouldn't want the Panthers taking him there, but late in the first round is tempting.

Man after seeing the way bell was slicing us up I've had second thoughts but him and Cam will both be done if the line remains as bad as they were last night

Well it's not like Pitts line is anything to write home about. That's my point.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.

      In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
