OT Ryan Ramczyk declares for the draft. In play for Panthers at 8?

I hope Robinson drops to us at 8 but the gun charge might keep us from drafting him.

I'm too old to play Madden.  Hell I predate the Atari game consoles so I'll stick with the Holiday Inn Express qualifications thank you.

Drafting Ramczyk at 8 would go against everything Gettleman stands for.  He preaches BPA.  Not drafting hungry.  

With the 8th pick in the draft,  we have the opportunity to draft a game changing talent.

Last year he admitted he strayed from BPA due to extreme need. Would you consider OT extreme need?

Extreme?  No, at least not if Blindside is back.  It is dire though but not to the point of desperation in my book.   When everyone is healthy they are a pretty good group all in all.   We certainly could use upgrading at backup positions if possible while looking to the future at LT and C.  I think Williams will do just fine as the future at RT.  The guards are set.

I've been watching the kids all season (what with being in Wisconsin) & maybe if we trade down. I mean he's a beast, but not a top 10 beast.

If he's your guy, then you draft him. At some point we're going to have to take a chance on a LT

Depends on what they really think about Oher.  If they are confident he is back to 100% they might be willing to draft a guy later to sit a year or two.

If there are any concerns at all they need to be aggressive in the draft and/or free agency.  Also they could always chase need by trading back, that way they don't have to reach.

FWIW, I think you guys better not overlook Garrett Bolles.

His future, as well as Ramczyk's, is going to come down to tape, analysis, belief, and opportunity on draft night. Ramczyk has already gotten a first round grade from the NFL Advisory Board, and Bolles might be on his way. 

[MV%doe]

Yes sir!

I'm confused, why does everyone in here believe the draft board is already set in stone??? This guy could very easily move up, it does not take much. Players move up and down like a out of control stock market. If a couple scouts and coaches fall in love with him, that's all it takes and he's a top ten pick.

Agreed.

[Icebox]

I like the guy... I just think there are going to be game-changers there at 8... and while he's a solid guy, he's no game changer.

[davos]

I like that kid from Pitt. He's got NFL tackle written all over him. Good 2nd rounder

Bolles is my favorite LT prospect. With the speed rushers in the NFL these days you need an athletic LT. It doesn't take long to realize Bolles has the foot speed and quickness to compete with anyone coming off the edge. 

IMO we need to grab one of the elite playmakers at 8 and then trade back into the first for Bolles.
