Pretty intresting  read since it is all but assured we will be forced to take one at some point in the draft. The obvious top teir defacto leader was Juedy with a top 10 grade. But then it gets interest with the following group given a top 40 draft grade...lamb followed by ruggs, Jefferson, Tee Higgins from Clemson, Michael Pittman from USC, latvishka sulkaska Jr from Calorado, and Mims from Baylor. 

I personally would be thrilled with any of those guys in the but the later portion all grouped up will probably push some down into our range in the 3rd. What day you?

Meh, I think every team in the league will have to draft a WR this year. It's probably in the CBA. So many eligible receiver picks out there, it might as well be at Overstock.com.

That means they all go undrafted

Nah, there will possibly be more WRs drafted in the first three rounds of this draft than ever before in NFL history. It's a really, really good crop. It devalues them a bit, not for quality, but just for the sheer quantity of good options.

I feel you need 2 premier recievers nowadays. I wouldn't mind getting 1 in the 2nd, preferably with height. 

Tampa is the only team, off the top of my head, that has two premier WRs that I can think of at the moment.

This. Any if those guys across from DJ would be great. Coach Rhule mentioned CeeDee Lamb in conversation. Not reading into that but THATS the type of WR we need. 6'2" YAC guy with 4.3 speed. Moose to DJ/Smitty. Both guys are very dangerous after the catch. My personal WR hope is Lamb but any of those guys would be a good compliment.

minnesota does too, but yeah i see your point. having a good rotation though, like both of the past two super bowl teams had (KC and SF), seems to work. having DJ, samuel and more supporting guys would be fine, i get the push to get a WR with how good this class is but i just don't see it with the sheer amount of holes we have. maybe a collin johnson or another taller option later, but i don't think it's really a need and that we'd be better off expending a 2nd rounder elsewhere especially with the dropoff from 2nd to 3rd.

I dont see how you dont see it.with them not bringing Hogan, olsen or jarius Wright it seems all buy assured. Word Is rhule favors bigger targets and Moore was a solid number 2 wr. I don't see anyway around a Wr.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
