Hunter vs Tmac who you got?

Say we decide to trade back and not draft a QB. Both players are on the board who do you prefer we take?

 

Hunter is a elite DB prospect who happens to have the ability to also play WR. He's a threat to score after the INT. Some think he will play both ways I don't. If we draft him I would just use him at DB and have one of the best DB tandems in football with Horn/Hunter.

 

Tmac is a 6'5 fast and fluid with his routes. If you ask me he's better than last year prospect Harrison Jr. He's already had a 300 yard game and a 200 yard game in this season with a QB who's not really good imo. He's the next great WR.

 

Both elite prospects and these guys are the only other game changing prospects I see in this draft besides the 2 QB's Sanders/Ward.

 

Who you got?

If we had a viable QB...and had to pick between the two...then Tmac would be a no brainer for me. Line him up in a 3WR set with Legette and Coker and we'd become a problem for defenses around the NFL...with a viable QB of course

I like Hunter, but I wouldn't want to go top 5 on a cornerback with a team this bad. He could ball it here and still have no impact on our ability to win because teams would simply ignore his side of the field on pass plays and gash us to death running the football.

I'd like to find the best pass rusher in the draft and get him with our almost assure top 3 pick. If Brown returns to form next year that would give us 2 solid pieces to build around.

TMac if we had a QB, otherwise we have to take a DE or even a Dline.

Travis Hunter is the best player in college. Get him. That simple. 

I can already see this off season being full of 50+ page threads of arguments and personal insults

I want Hunter as a DB.

 

If you drafting him for a WR wouldn't you just take Tmac?

 

I'm assuming you think Hunter is a better WR prospect over Tmac correct?

I think he is a better weapon. TMac only has 2 games this season with TDs. Yeah Hunter has a NFL QB throwing to him, but still you get him enough looks and he will make some plays. I’d prefer Hunter with his explosiveness and fire he plays with. TMac is solid though.

EFFING EDGE RUSHER GODDAMNIT

I understand this is going to sound silly but Travis Hunter screams football player to me. Natural talent all over the field, being good enough to play WR & DB at D1 level cannot be taught. Just draft him and get him on the field.

If it's #1 overall, ideally you move down enough to still grab one of the two.

I would probably prefer McMillan because WR is more of a need than DB. Both are elite players, so it would be hard to be upset with either. It might be hard to afford two top 10 draft pick CB's eventually(assuming Horn sticks around), as well.

The top 5 should have some definite options, OT, DT, etc. We absolutely have to get a solid 8-10 year starter at the minimum. Anything less is unacceptable.

It’s a bad year for that at top picks. Pearce at Tennessee was the top or right there not that long ago and he didn’t impress me at all when I’ve watched him. He seems like a lesser Burns. Much rather go CB/DT in 1st and look at edge in 2nd, FA or next draft.

I think T Mac is going to be a special player. But I don't know how anybody can look at this team and say "wide receiver, that's what we need 1,1."

Granted, many of them have been awful, but we have used so much draft capital on receivers.  This team needs help on defense. Interior D line, Edge rushing, linebackers, and in the secondary. 

The only way you go offense in my view is if you fall in love with a quarterback. I just do not like this crop. Cam Ward is my favorite, but I'm not sure that's an NFL guy.

In other words we need help at every position on the defensive side of the ball.

Hunter. 

If we're one, we're not trading back, and the pick will be Cam Ward.

[Manna]

TMAC just because panthers would panthers it up and convert Hunter to a position he's never played before. 

[L-TownCat]

Since the offensive line is the least shitty part of the team, a young QB could theoretically develop here.  Then build the defense as you go.

But who knows man?  This roster is so ass it’s hard to pick a starting point.

Yeah I'm all for defense but it has to make sense. This DE class is not that impressive and as you said the best guy is Pearce and he doesn't really jump out when I watch him.
