Which prospect was deemed as almost a certainty to be drafted by Carolina in 2013?

last year there was a poll here and it was 50% OT/50% WR, but the OT class was weak last year while the WR class was legendary

The OT options were Moses, Kouandjio and late riser Ja'Wuan James. Moses and Kouandjio were pretty meh and generated little to no interest

The WRs of course generated a ton of interest. Per most of the mocks, the best WRs available to us would be: #1 Marqise Lee and #2 KB (being that the Top 4 would be gone: Watkins/Evans/Beckham/Cooks), and those two were indeed the #5 and #6 WRs taken

Of the Top 10 or so WRs, Lee was the only one I wasn't a fan of so I'm glad we passed on him. I wasn't the only one, I don't remember Lee having a ton of supporters, and I'm pretty sure KB had more.

Guys like Davante Adams and Jordan Matthews (two of the three WRs taken right after KB and Lee) had a good deal of supporters and they both did well last year. Adams caught for 121 in GB's W over the Patriots and 117 in GB's playoff W over DAL. Matthews caught for 872 yds last yr.

Carolina has usually done a very good job at not telegraphing who they're going to pick

The year Olsen was drafted most mocks had him in Carolina, a couple had Willis falling to us but I think everyone assumed we would've drafted him
