I guarantee if Allen ran a 4.8 40 none of y'all would be complaining. Before the combine it was considered a Star-like longshot of Allen dropping to us. Now everyone acts like they would hate the pick. I would be thrilled if we got Allen as he has been arguably one of the top 3 players in college the last 2 years. 

I still wouldn't want him

If you truly think Allen is one of the best players in the draft, if not the best player (looking at you, Gooby), and you'd be upset if the Panthers took him, you're insane.

It would be like the Jets picking dude from USC a few Drafts ago.  If it happens, and Fournette isn't there.  I'm okay with it.

Id rather us go offense, but if someone is going to post the opinion that they think Allen is the best player in the draft, it's crazy for them not to want to draft him

I love how just the possibility of this makes you think the front office has made mistakes.

Try reading better. I didn't say the front office made a mistake. I said if they do indeed take Allen it would be saying butler was a mistake. You don't take yet another first round, much less top ten, DT if you think butler is the answer to replace short.

Nope. 40 yd dash has nothing to do with burst. I don't care what he did at the combine. Combine is just supplementary data. I watched a bunch of his games and he would be a DT for us, not DE. I've disliked the notion of taking Allen from the very beginning. If we hadn't taken Butler last year I'd be more open if it's looking unlikely we'll resign short.

Allen may very well be the best player in the draft but at some point you have to realize that there are other needs on this team. I hope they don't plan on picking this high again anytime soon so now is the best opportunity to draft another stud for the offensive side of the ball. As we saw this past season, Cam can't keep carrying this offense up and down the field with. Its time to take a legit playmaker to complement Cam and make the offense better as a whole. Not only helps Cam, but create opportunities for Benji, fun fun and Olsen. Taking yet another D-lineman that's not a sure fire pass rushing DE would be an exercise in stupidity.

Draft Allen and trade kk for a late first/early second ? I mean that's the best case scenario

Jonathan Allen is the player we need the least out of the top picks. We're not drafting Allen imo.

If this happens, I will turn off the TV, and try to do something to take my mind off of football for a while.

I think Allen is a great prospect, but in terms of our needs he'd be he guy that would be about the least exciting. Then again, if the guy turns into Aaron Donald we wouldn't care about that need thing.

As for Mixon, NFL Network had an interterestkng quote from an anonymous NFL RB a coach that made sense. He essentially said that if you're willing to draft Mixon in the 7th you might as well be willing to draft him in the 1st. You're going to get the same scrutiny and reaction to the pick either way.

 

But it's not about the scrutiny. It's about using a first round pick on a guy with character issues that could end up out of the league if he keeps screwing up. See Josh Gordon, Aaron Hernandez, Greg Hardy, Ray Rice as examples of guys that can't find their way on the field despite having plenty of years left physically.

Leonard Fournette > OJ Howard > Christian McCaffrey

I mean he could, or he could end up like Dez Bryant, dude from Kansas City, and many others that have been caught with drugs, DV (even though Mixon's isn't technically DV), and other issues that have panned out.  Hell, Aldon Smith is about to get another shot.  I mean, didn't Randy Moss have issues too?  I think that worked out well for him.    

Also, Josh Gordon is looking for another team currently.  So, he could still pan out as well.

We are above that here in Carolina remember! Being a mediocre franchise is ok as long as we can fall back on our morals!
