Draft Picks should be #25, #57, #80?

[Kevin Greene]

Getts has shown he knows what do do come draft day.

*not worried*

also all of you who think we should have tanked can shove it

 

we needed this bad.  as an organization, fanbase, whatever.  we got a major monkey off our backs.

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

We just fuged up all the way around. Should have let the Falcons take the fall

I am willing to take the bet that whoever we select at 25 will outperform whom ever the Falcons take in the first round.

As of 3 days ago this is what Walter had to say.  

 

Carolina Panthers: La'el Collins, OT/G, LSU ...

Question.  Can he play LT?  Otherwise fug no.  

 

Draftek says this.

 

Ronnie Stanley 

Notre Dame Left OT

I don't like Collins at LT, no.   

 

Stanley is good, might be rising.  I see Ogbuehi falling and I don't know if I'd drop a prospect from top 5-10 to the end of the first round because of a single game. But, hey, do it.  People had Benjamin top 15 or so this time last year.  By May 1, they'd talked themselves into him being a top 45, enough that I remember people calling him a reach at 28 for f's sake.  A player that talented at 28 being a reach...yeah, allright, if you say.

[Riverboat Ron]

Nope, every player will be gone by #25.

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

oh yeah i forgot that 25 is basically where the talent drops to UDFA levels

 

oh woe is me what are these panthers to do

[Proudiddy]

And this may sound woefully ignorant, but I do not want a swing/utillity guy as our pick. That. Collins pick... no... we don't need a G/T tweener. We need a straight up tackle and sign Byron Bell to a lifetime backup contract since Ron loves him so much.

[doghead28]

In case I am mistaken the name of the game is to try to win a championship. I don't want to be a team that has a culture of losing. There is no guarantee that a top 10 pick will work out. It is not every year I get to go to and enjoy a home playoff win. The Panthers played the Seahawks tough too. Screw playing for a draft pick, I want a Lombardi trophy. The more playoff experience Cam and the rest of the team can get the better.

[Proudiddy]

Hyperbole anyone?

No one is saying there isn't anyone at 25. But you're lying to yourself if you think a tackle at 25 is as talented as one in the top 5. Most of the guys available at the end of the round are there for some reason.

KB was a great value pick, but he was there because of drops and possible work ethic issues. He dropped tons of passes this season and his route running left a lot to be desired. Don't kid yourselves... a lot of people wanted OBJ... look at the difference.

[bandu]

BPA it's that simple!forget about addressing areas of concern through the draft!!!FREE AGENCY LT and WR!!!!!!!!!!now draft,geezzzze smh.

[YoungPanthers89]

WR/OT

WR/OT

S/RB

[bandu]

WR/OT

WR/OT

S/RB

yeah,two MAJOR roles on the offense and you are suggesting START not one but TWO rookies,whatever???

[Growl]

Getts has shown he knows what do do come draft day.

*not worried*

What Gettleman has shown on draft day is that he waits for our pick to come up.

Yet I guarantee the next 3/4 months you will see the words "TRADE DOWN!" come up on this board at least as many times as our ST missed this season (read: a lot)

[wareagleflyboy]

As long as we draft Wr, OT, DB, and perhaps a late round RB.  Make a few veteran free agent signings.  I don't see how the Panthers can't get better off of this season and make the playoffs again.
