[Snake]

No RB it will be a LB round one.

I want a RB/TE combo and the 2018 class is perfect for it.

 

I actually do hope we get a tight end this class. We need one

yeah, this hasn't gotten enough thought.  Davis announcing retirement? Luke with his head? 

I guess the most realistic prediction is we end up with 2 first round picks.  Hurney takes a RB, then trades our next years frist for a LB.

We should try to get Eifert on a 1 year prove it deal. Could be an amazing complementary piece and even future Olsen replacement if he can stay healthy.

Eifert can't stay healthy and just had back surgery. Need to find another one even if Eifert signed and if we end up with 3 then all the better.

What's Hurney Bro?? 

After Barkly nobody is worth a 1st round pick.  And no matter how much you dislike him.. Hurney doesn't fug up or waste 1st round picks..

he would be a massive steal if we could get him in round 2/3.  we need an enforcer at SS bad though.

I'm mainly just messing around.  I don't really lose sleep about Hurney and the draft.  I've always defended his drafting his overall drafting vs the field. 

I do think Hurney puts more emphasis on need than Dave.  Which I like.

We should always be looking to improve every single position. It's easier said than done and resources in the draft need to be used in many different positions. If a TE we like is available and is good value early on then yeah take him, but that's very very far from a guarantee. Eifert is a really logical option to look at in FA. Could easily blow up for us as a TE2 or even TE1, and with his injury history wouldn't be much risk on a 1 year deal. Low risk, high reward. Pretty much a no-brainer to at least look at him.

Got to be a power back to compliment McCaffery.  Don't see any of those one Day 1 currently.  Lots on the 2nd and early 3rd day though.

Here's the other running backs drafted or who we reportedly have had heavy interest during recent drafts (excluding McCaffery):

NAME	Height	Weight	Arm	Hand
CAP	5'10"	212	29 5/8	8 7/8
Tyler Gaffney	5'11"	220	30 1/4	9
Todd Gurley	6'1"	222	31 1/2	10
Derrick Henry	6'3"	247	33	8 3/4
Devontae Booker	5'11"	219	31 5/8	8 5/8
Brandon Wegher	5'10"	213	30 1/4	9 1/4

Guice is the only one that makes sense for us in R1. Otherwise if we want a RB that badly , trade down with a team like Browns, Giants, Broncos, Colts, get a high 2nd and high 3rd. Then we have all sorts of draft capital. Would not mind getting a RB in the 2nd , alot of the good backs are projected to go 2nd or 3rd round (Rashaad Penny, Nick Chubb, Sony Michel, Josh Adams) and then Scarborough and Freeman should be there in later rounds. 

If I were Panthers scout team and Hurney, I'd be looking long and hard at Guice (in case he drops), Chubb, Penny, and Adams. 

Wouldnt be surprised if we get RB or WR in R1. Could easily be Ridley, Kirk, Washington, Guice, Chubb, or even Penny was the leading college rusher last year.

Hopefully, Eric Shelton doesn't have a younger brother that's coming out of college right now.

Hinging on a guy like Eifert is very risky but overall we're on the same page here. Having depth like that is ideal.
