8. Carolina Panthers

McShay's pick: Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU

Fournette is the best running back in a loaded class and the perfect fit for Carolina's power-rushing offense. The Panthers need to not rely on QB Cam Newton so much in the run game.

 

40. Carolina Panthers

McShay's pick: Curtis Samuel, WR, Ohio State

Wide receiver is a sneaky need for Carolina. Samuel makes plays from the slot and as a runner on jet sweeps/reverses.

 

 

64. Carolina Panthers (from Patriots)

McShay's pick: Obi Melifonwu, S, Connecticut

Melifonwu has an elite size/speed combination: 6-4, 224 pounds, 4.40 40, 44-inch vertical. The Panthers could use more of that playing against WRs like Mike Evans and Julio Jones in the NFC South.

98. Carolina Panthers*

McShay's pick: Daeshon Hall, DE, Texas A&M

Hall has the physical tools to work with (35½-inch arms and good first-step quickness); he just needs to learn how to set up blockers better.

 

Love It. But I think this would be a dream situation I dout the draft plays out this way but if it did I don't think many of us would complain. Discuss....

[Rags]

No way is Melifonwu lasting to 64.

 

I'd be surprised if he makes it out of round 1

[Catufb85]

I'd take that draft all day but don't think Obi last until 64.  New reports don't think Obi makes it to even 40 some say late first now.

We need a TE more so than WR 

Howard > Leggett > Shaheen > Sprinkle  > Njoku 

[top dawg]

Not saying that Obi will last, but some of this movement is phantom movement, only within the minds of fans and media draftniks. Obi still has a certain amount of rawness at the end of the day. 

It wouldn't be surprising if some of these guys go right where they were predicted before this process all began. After all, the tape rules, not media driven hype with most execs. 

Don't get me wrong, some will slide, some will fall, but most will stay about the same.

Pretty much. We have no idea where Obi will land. Could be round 3 for all we know. Jeremy Cash was a projected round 2 and didn't get drafted. sheesh.

I like Kai Naucu from BYU , who has been under the rader so far but could be one of the steals of the draft in the mid round

6'- 2" 210 lbs with  4.4 fourty time 

- instincts 

-Ball Hawk & excellent  run supporter

-Turnover Machine

Like it a lot

[chknwing]

who the hell is Mel Kiper?

[Chardee MacDennis]

Obi will be picked at 40. I think the Panthers like him a lot. And i could even see a trade up from 40 to late 20s to get him.

I see it as 1) Take BPA at 8. 2) Get Obi, he's our only hope.

Obi learns from Mike Adams for a year, and then steps into the starting role.

3) address either RB or WR, whichever you didn't get at 8.

This is a "wake up in Hawaii next to  two supermodels" draft...it's great but you know it's never gonna happen....

If you're a planner and know thy enemey one could get the gist of the draft board.

[Panthero]

there are safeties that will be available in the fifth round like tedric thompson and xavier woods who would be incredible value. harvey clemons too, but his past drug history might scare the panthers.

[Bj-Monster23]

I see no way Obi gets passed Seattle even with them needing offensive line help.
