Some notes from my source involving the NFL draft

At the end of the day 1-2 of those safeties will end up being a first round pick, if we trade down it's not outlandish that we land Savage, Abram, Chauncey, or Adderly. Offensive line seems more likely though.

I really like Allen in the 2nd round for us depending on what’s available. He’s scheme versatile and can play in a 4-3 & 3-4 front. Same with Omenihu. We need to take advantage of this draft and come out with 2 DL.

I don’t like any of the safeties in the 1st. Especially not at 16. At 47 I would jump at the opportunity if Adderley, Chauncey-Johnson or Savage are there.

No way we are taking offensive line after the way we couldn't get to the QB last year. We are going up against Brees, Ryan and Winston. We have to get to them and create pressure. Getting sacks and forcing turnovers. We have to win our division to get into playoffs. That don't happen if we can't play defense.

Do you and your source have any opinions on Max Scharping, the OT out of Northern Illinois? He has been graded anywhere from a 3rd to 5th rounder but I can see him climbing into the backend of the 2nd (or higher) due to his tape and versatility (played primarily LT this season but lined up at RT too)

I'd like to hear this one. Why is he barely draftable?

Barely produced in college and wasn't really competing with top level WRs from Georgia. This year he had his "breakout" at age 22. On top of that he's a 15th percentile athlete. If he wasn't from Georgia or Calvin's brother I don't imagine we'd hear much about him at all.

To be fair his bro had his breakout at 37 so there’s still time for him

Verge, who do you guys have as your top 5 RBs and top 5 WRs in this class? Any sleepers at those positions?

I'm in a dynasty fantasy league with rookie draft classes and need to know who I should be targeting with such a defensively top heavy class. 

Yeah, I'll hit him up today and we'll do a positional ranking if he has time.

    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.  
    • I don’t get this, I know that is the popular thought process but I just don’t think it’s true.  For instance head to head last year the ACC had a winning record against the SEC.  The SEC had a losing record in bowl games. This year so far the head to head is 2-3 SEC and that’s with a fluke Vandy win in week one.  I see the ACC taking another head to head winning season after next week.  The SEC is mostly hype with 3 good teams, in my opinion.  But to say any ACC team would get exposed I believe is a stretch
