will be starting next week. I really thought this guy showed some potential last night once he got into the flow of the game.

Of course, I still expect the Panthers to go after another DT, but I'm at least encouraged that we have a better option than Nick Hayden.

Yeah, I posted that up the second it was revealed that Kemo was done for the year. I told everyone not to sleep on him, I'm a die hard LSU fan and I watched the guy play for 4 years, he definitely has game, and he definitely has potential. I guess since my name isn't Zod no one paid attention :D I've enclosed what I originally said just to prove I'm not full of poppycock.

#1. Great post, you really did your research.

#2 Out of all those options I would prefer Walker coming back, he isn't horrible and knows the system and may give us a discount.

Being a die hard LSU fan, I urge Panther fans not to sleep on Marlon Favorite, I watched him for the last few years in every LSU game and the guy can stop the run, now whether or not his talent will translate to the NFL as quickly as we would need it to remains to be seen...he does have talent, but at times with LSU he seemed to lack motivation, now he has all the motivation he needs to prove himself and earn a spot. He seems like the kind of player that could either be cut by the end of the preseason, or really show up and be a nice surprise for us. I hope it's the latter...

Although, surprisingly enough...I feel ok if we don't sign anyone, I think Meeks philosophy and his "swarm the ball" style are really gonna cater to our players and I'm sure out of all the defensive linemen we have, at least ONE of them has to possess the talent to step up and make some plays on a consistent basis.

I'd also like to declare that after last night, I'm no longer of the opinion that we'll be ok with what we have.

Favorite and Irvin looked pretty decent last night. I could honestly say I would only keep them and cut the rest of the DT's. I would keep Lewis but my patience is waring thin on him, he's ok but without a Kemo caliber DT next to him he's just going to get taken out of plays. If I were Hurney I do everything possible to get us a good DT with some potential. Get Corey Williams and pick up one of the Titans or Giants cuts and I think we could have something.

After seeing the Giants D-line, I would not mind taking their sloppy seconds at all.

      BPA: Too Much Value to Trade Down

      By Waldo · Posted

      Just take less value for a trade back this year. 'But the trade value chart'... just doesn't matter when an extra 2nd should be enough to move back this year given the situation. I would take an extra 2nd over any player that could potentially be there at 8 and it's not close. Let the media bitch about it, just doesn’t matter if we walk away with an edge, FS and WR in  the first 2 rounds given how close all of that talent is when looking at it big picture. Fug the value chart and just give me a decent additional 2nd for the win. All it takes is someone falling in love with Sanders or the RB or whatever. If there was more talent in this draft then that would be a terrible idea but turning down a trade because the value was less than other years when the tellent is obviously less at the top of this draft would just show how poorly the people in charge understand this class and it's weaknesses. It would be like not finding a slot WR or RB later, just dumb IMO.

      God forbid this is the way the Draft shakes out

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I get a sense they are weighing defense along w/ BPA. Whoever the staff likes between Mykel/Ez is my sense here. I would also throw in Harmon but our FAs along with Brown/Robinson make it a tough fit.  Trade downs may be unlikely in our spot so taking that out per request, Membou could be BPA, but gut says we go DBPA. Positional value is there, upside is there, Less anxious about them vs Shemar. I don’t think there’s offensive skill guys worth it - maybe Golden. There’s no ILBs, no safeties worth it, Will Johnson - injuries, Barron - is he just a NB/FS?  It’s Mykel season.

      I said Warren but I totally could live with this too. BPA, and I don't think it's Williams or Shemar or any other defensive player in this scenario.
