Recommended Posts

1. Jags: Lawerence 

2. Jets: Wilson

3. SF:  Jones

4. Atl: Kyle Pitts

5.  Bengals: Chase

6.  Trade!  Denver moves up for Fields 

7. Trade! Washington moves up and grabs Trey Lance

 

8. Penei Sewell: after a Historic run on QBs, the Panthers get the best OL in this entire draft.

46. Richie Grant:  Panthers Trade down with the Patriots who move up for a QB who fell out of rd 1 (I’m looking at Davis Mills here).  Matt Rhule has a crush,  and it’s no secret it’s Richie Grant.  Grant is Safety 2-3 on people’s boards.  I don’t see Rhule waiting around and risk losing him in rd 3.

73.  Ifeatu Melifonwu- Big Athletic Toolsy CB in this stacked CB class.

96. *Via Pats*.   Ben Cleveland: Cleveland is a Big Mauler in the middle at OG.  Impact starter day 1.

Not bad at all and this could very well happen. Its unheard having 5 QB go before 8, but this is the year it may pop the cherry. 

One minor issue is Grant going 2nd is tooo soon for me and I know Rhule raved about him. Safety maybe the one spot with decent depth(depends on Chinn too). I really like Sam Franklin at safety and the coaches like Burris big time. Just not a spot of focus for me in the draft.

If he makes it past the Bengals it's a very real possiblity. All the signs are pointing to mostly QBs and WRs being taken ahead of us. 

Wouldn't rule out us taking the best defensive player in the draft as well . Don't know exactly who the Panthers believe that is .  IMO it's Pat Surtain but CB may not be a glaring anymore need with the Bouye signing. 

Id simply love a draft that's heavy oline focused . Last draft was Dline focused early doing the same for the oline this year would  wonders imo.

I would take this draft and never look back.  Hope this happens.  Sewell and Cleveland?  Hell yeah.

Richie Grant is the best pure single high safety in the draft (yes even over Moehrig). He will go 2nd round for sure. Whether it's us or not.

Agreed...he will have some growing pains but he steps in a starts right away IMO.  Grant is a stud

Safety is my and many other teams least valued spot out of the normal 22. They always drop. I think at the 39th pick the smart pick will be either DL or OL(even if they drafted OL in the 1st). But panthers are not known for smart moves. Plus the best spot for depth on the panthers seems to be safety.

Hard as it is for me to understand I think DeVonta Smith is being underrated a little here.  He is the top WR IMO and if he goes to a team with a great QB look out.  He cant be covered 1 on 1.

117 rec 1850 yrds and 23 TDs last year on the biggest stage?  That is absolutely ridiculous

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
