Bill Voth: But I'm not convinced Carolina's decision-makers unanmiously see Fournette as the clear-cut pick if it came down to him and McCaffrey.

I feel fairly confident we're not going to eat them.

Norwell would if he was on another team and switched to DL.

Unfortunately all those mock drafters at ESPN, etc. will get the credit if that turns out to happen...

What's this ESPN you're talking about?

Dunno, don't follow that stuff. And just so we're clear here. I want all the credit when we trade up to 3 to take Garrett.

fwiw, Voth's wording does not suggest he thinks the Panthers would take CMC over Fournette, just that maybe it's not unanimous

 

It's easy to read the headline of this thread and think HOLY POO WE'RE TAKING CMC OVER FOURNETTE OMGZZ

But that's not at all what Voth is saying. just my two sense

Agreed. I still think it would be LF. But that would be a great problem to have.

Yes we will give you all the credit and make fun of you when it doesn't happen ;)

Why not make fun of the Browns when it does happen?

Good point. I think we should light Voth up tonight on Twitter when the Browns inevitable make a Browns move tonight. I feel like he's probably already prepared for it though.

I keep forgetting he's a Browns fan... Trade 12 up to 2 and take Trubisky and McCaffrey.

Panther propaganda and disinformation department is in overdrive on smokescreens.

It's LF and shouldn't be close, won't say is not close because truly only our front office knows.

Way I see it is Leonard Fournette has been a dominate running back ever seen he first strapped on the cleats at a young age. An article writes that at the age of 12 in little league opposing parents started a partition to ban him.

He is one of those generically gifted guys, and we all knew who they were growing up, that was just bigger, faster, and stronger than everyone and they made it look easy.

I believe that the Fournette's of the football world are very scarce and with a possibility of getting him you must take that opportunity.  If you do either end up with McCaffrey and LF is gone, then with J-Stew not getting younger, it will be something you still have to address later or next year but with more than likely not a top 10 pick for quite some time.

If it is running back that they are honing in on, I think its LF and not close.

McCaffrey is a great back and will more than likely be productive in the NFL with whatever role he plays.

I just don't see how taking a player who's best attribute is versatility. He's good at several things.  When there's a back that is great at what your offense is designed around.

I'd rather get someone that's put up good stats vs SEC competition than someone that's racked up yards vs Pac12 defenses. I'm just sayin.

Some recent buzz/mocks/rumors that C-Mac goes before eight.  What if both are gone at eight:(

If you believe all the rumors then there will be 20 players all off the board before we pick. SOMEONE has to drop there's only 7 teams in front of us and all it takes is one screwball pick to fug everyone's predictions over

[Doc Holiday]

Panthers are hoping to get Fournette, they are saying anything they can to hopefully get him to drop to us at 8, talking up McCaffery is a way of doing this.
