Linebacker in the first?

[O-Ther]

I wouldn't be against getting depth behind TD, but I think Gettleman's priority is the lines. Guys that are big, strong, and fast are rarer and more expensive than small, strong, and fast guys. I'd rather have too many of those than not enough.

not day one.

 

not even day two.

Shaq would be a good get. I just don't like the switching of positions. I think it hampered Davis's growth early in his career.

 

What would you do with him if we drafted him?

[Mol3m4n]

I am 0% for getting a linebacker in the first, even if it is Shaq Thompson.

[B.BERSIN]

When Brett Favre still can play, GB drafts Rodgers, I'm not saying the LB position is same with the QB position, but yeah it's about time to draft a replacement for TD.

Shaq Attack...Smoothest player in all come drills and if there's a true football player in this draft, it's this guy. He's a baller and plays multiple positions where we need an upgrade...including running back.

I would rage like super feggit, but not on here or twatter(by myself crying in the shower).

I've already excepted daves picking DL, so Im ready......... much prefer WR, DBs, or OT in ALL early rounds. Avoid OG, RB, LB til round 5 comp. 6/7 are made for STs, I no longer care much about these picks. In the past for some odd reason they always pissed me off.

BPA within reason/logic(no QBs/MLB early) is the best solution each round. Starting in round 5 comp, I don't care if the picks are punter and QB.

[DaCityKats]

I just cannot agree with this. Especially when you do not bring in much during the fa period. 2nd or later is fine.

Kwon Alexander from LSU is a decent prospect and could be had in the middle rounds. He is an ideal weak side lb.

[GoobyPls]

First a RB, then a DT, now a LB

I heard Gano might retire soon lets go Kicker in the first.

Hurney drafted Luke........not dg

Who relied on the scouting reports developed by a lot of the same scouts we still have.

We switched scouting agencies.

[DaveThePanther2008]

One reason our defense is good (after we got rid of the turtles in the Defensive backfield) is our linebackers are incredibly quick.  

 

I think if Gettleman sees all the good WR, Safeties, OL are gone he will take the best player available (minus QB).  

 

Over the past two drafts he has been nearly flawless.    While I agree it wouldn't be the most popular pick Gettleman is not going to reach for a player that is rater lower than the position we are drafting.   BPA

Not sure if this is drivel or not but Don Gregory has been the Head of College Scouting since 2006.

And, in fact, the group that drafted Cam and Luke are more than likely still in the building. There wasn't much turnover when Gettleman took over.

[PantherFanOne]

I am not opposed to drafting a LB in the 1st rd,just think there will be a player at another position, with greater value, when we pick at # 25.
