[Samuel L. Jackson]

11:42 Mike Persinger: Welcome to today's live chat with Charlotte Observer NFL writers Charles Chandler and Darin Gantt.

11:55 [Comment From Jay in DCJay in DC: ]

Could Armanti Edwards become a Panther? Would he even go in the draft?

Monday April 19, 2010 11:55 Jay in DC

11:56 Darin Gantt: No bias, no bull. That's me. Anybody who doesn't think he's getting drafted is nuts. Might go Friday night, third round, no later than fifth. Panthers have been among the most interested, so sure, there's a chance.

Monday April 19, 2010 11:56 Darin Gantt

11:56 [Comment From chknwingchknwing: ]

Well its obvious JR has put the club on his wallet, What are the chances Carolina will trade down and pick up multiple 3rd round picks

Monday April 19, 2010 11:56 chknwing

11:57 Charles Chandler: I doubt seriously they'll trade out of the second round. There's way too much value in Round 2. Halfway through Round 2, players are available who might normally be first-rounders. More likely they'

Monday April 19, 2010 11:57 Charles Chandler

11:57 [Comment From Brendan O.Brendan O.: ]

Do you think we can try to convert Mike Goodson as a slot reciever?

Monday April 19, 2010 11:57 Brendan O.

11:57 Charles Chandler: Cont'd ... more likely they'd trade up or stand pat or more only slightly down

Monday April 19, 2010 11:57 Charles Chandler

11:57 Monday April 19, 2010 11:57

11:58 Darin Gantt: Goodson's got to learn to play something, but yes, he has the requisite skills to play in the slot. That was part of the plan with him to begin with.

Monday April 19, 2010 11:58 Darin Gantt

11:58 [Comment From SSSS: ]

Who are players in the 2nd round that we can expect an immediate impact for the Panthers?

Monday April 19, 2010 11:58 SS

12:00 Charles Chandler: There are many, many players available in this draft in Round 2 who could help Carolina. Examples include WRs such as A.Benn, G.Tate, E.Decker and some D-linemen, especially tackles such as Tyson Alualu, UNC's Cam Thomas, ECU's Linval Joseph

Monday April 19, 2010 12:00 Charles Chandler

12:00 [Comment From CheardCheard: ]

Do you think the Panthers will make a move into the first round? Wouldn't this be as good a year as any for Fox/Hurney to sacrifice next year's first rounder?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:00 Cheard

12:00 Darin Gantt: Since they've made 11 draft day trades in 8 years, i think there's a good chance they're dealing. Hurney never met a deal he didn't like, and getting into the late first or early second would help them find DE/WR help they need.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:00 Darin Gantt

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:00 [Comment From DT3428DT3428: ]

Do you see any way Carolina take The Golden Calf of Bristol with the 2nd round pick if he is there?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:00 DT3428

12:00 Charles Chandler: If he's there in the second round at No. 48, yes, they definitely could, but I doubt very seriously he'll be available. he may go in Round 1

Monday April 19, 2010 12:00 Charles Chandler

12:00 [Comment From DameyuneDameyune: ]

Darin, you guys really think the Panthers will draft a QB? I really wish they'd pick up Jason Campbell, who could really excel in this offense.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:00 Dameyune

12:01 Darin Gantt: I think Campbell makes more sense than anyone they'd draft this year. Let him and Moore compete to see who gets to be QB of the future.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:01 Darin Gantt

12:01 [Comment From Tim CTim C: ]

Do you see anyone from our current roster being draft day trade bait?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:01 Tim C

12:01 Charles Chandler: The only real possibility is CB Richard Marshall, but don't think that'll happen

Monday April 19, 2010 12:01 Charles Chandler

12:01 [Comment From GooWyattGooWyatt: ]

If WR is the way to go in Round 2, which guy do the Panthers take?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:01 GooWyatt

12:02 Darin Gantt: Of the lot of them, Gilyard might make the most sense. Gives you something in the return game immediately.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:02 Darin Gantt

12:02 [Comment From sorthnarolinasorthnarolina: ]

From what Fox & Co. have said, I feel like they are very unlikely to draft a DT early at all. What are your thoughts?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:02 sorthnarolina

12:02 Charles Chandler: That's what they've said, but the value could be so high, they'll do it. DT is very strong in the 2nd round, so that may be too good for them to pass up.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:02 Charles Chandler

12:02 [Comment From NickNick: ]

what are the chances of trading up and getting eric berry?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:02 Nick

12:02 Darin Gantt: Slim, no none. He'll go way too high for the ammunition they have to make moves.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:02 Darin Gantt

12:02 [Comment From sethseth: ]

Could the Panthers trade down towards the end of the second round for an extra 3rd round pick? Get value in this deep draft?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:02 seth

12:03 Charles Chandler: They can't trade down too far in Round 2, lest they miss out on the value that's available all through the second. There's a cutoff point sometime after No. 48.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:03 Charles Chandler

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:03 [Comment From Brendan O.Brendan O.: ]

Taylor Price has been a linked with the panthers for awhile. Do you guys think he is a good fit for the team?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:03 Brendan O.

12:03 Darin Gantt: He's fast, productive, and probably better than what's on hand.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:03 Darin Gantt

12:03 [Comment From JYJY: ]

Is Jerry sacrificing the fans in Charlotte for the benefit of the CBA?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:03 JY

12:04 Charles Chandler: It's probably not that serious, but the budget-tightening is definitely with the big picture in mind. It's also to protect people in the organzation who don't work on the football side. He doesn't want to have to lay off any workers.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:04 Charles Chandler

12:04 Darin Gantt: I think it's deeper than it'

Monday April 19, 2010 12:04 Darin Gantt

12:04 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

How honest do you think fox was being when he said the DT situation was good?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:04 Panther man 18

12:04 Darin Gantt: I think it's deeper than it's good. They have a lot of bodies, fewer starters

Monday April 19, 2010 12:04 Darin Gantt

12:04 [Comment From Jay in DCJay in DC: ]

What are some positions to keep an eye on in the draft?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:04 Jay in DC

12:05 Charles Chandler: WR, DE, DT, QB, CB and KR

Monday April 19, 2010 12:05 Charles Chandler

12:05 [Comment From Brendan O.Brendan O.: ]

Do you think drafting WR Taylor Price in the 2nd round would be too high?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:05 Brendan O.

12:05 Charles Chandler: Not too high. He's highly regarded, has better speed than almost any other WR available there. He'll go in either Round 2 or 3.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:05 Charles Chandler

12:06 [Comment From Brendan O.Brendan O.: ]

We all know the panthers need to draft a quality receiver early. What sleeper receiver do you see the panthers possibly drafting in the later rounds?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:06 Brendan O.

12:06 Darin Gantt: LSU's Holiday could fit that category. Track speed, return potential.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:06 Darin Gantt

12:06 [Comment From Jay in DCJay in DC: ]

Is it a good idea to trade picks for Osi Umenyiora?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:06 Jay in DC

12:06 Charles Chandler: Not multiple picks. But a single pick as long as it's not in Rounds 2 or 3. Doubt that they'll do it, though. They have signed exactly zero vets that cost anything at all.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:06 Charles Chandler

12:06 [Comment From TrishTrish: ]

Do we still have a 2nd. round pick or did we give that away?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:06 Trish

12:07 Darin Gantt: Not yet, but it's early. Check back on charlotte.com throughout the day.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:07 Darin Gantt

12:07 [Comment From GregGreg: ]

Anyone think that Hurney will trade next years first round pick to get in the first round this year?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:07 Greg

12:08 Charles Chandler: Doubt he'll be able to get into the first round, but don't rule out him trading up to higher in the 2nd by using next year's No. 1.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:08 Charles Chandler

12:08 [Comment From sorthnarolinasorthnarolina: ]

Do you expect the panthers to be more active with UDFA's this year?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:08 sorthnarolina

12:08 Darin Gantt: I think there's a chance a good half-dozen of them make the opening day 53.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:08 Darin Gantt

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:08 [Comment From ScottScott: ]

Is Jordan Shipley and option for the team to draft in the later rounds? I would love Tate or Gilyard, but I see them getting a physical WR who can block instead, if going in the 2nd round

Monday April 19, 2010 12:08 Scott

12:09 Charles Chandler: Shipley won't be available in the later rounds. Theyt'll need to pick him in 2 or 3. Tate figures to go in 2. But Gilyard later than you'd expecdt. Gilyard isn't fast and there are some issues beyond just playing football.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:09 Charles Chandler

12:09 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

Will the panthers pass on Daimen Williams because of past USC WR?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:09 Panther man 18

12:09 Darin Gantt: Fool me three times, shame on who? Don't cross the street to shake hands with the devil.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:09 Darin Gantt

12:10 [Comment From Justin in MDJustin in MD: ]

How early would the Panthers take a LB? And which one are they interested in?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:10 Justin in MD

12:10 Charles Chandler: They don't have a fifth-rouynder, so Round 6 would be the earliest. They could use someone to backup on the strong side.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:10 Charles Chandler

12:10 [Comment From CharlotteanCharlottean: ]

We've picked up a lot of special teams guys in the past few weeks. Does it seem none of them can fill the KR position?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:10 Charlottean

12:11 Darin Gantt: Witherspoon's got the speed to do it, but his hands aren't nearly as good as his feet.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:11 Darin Gantt

12:11 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

How do the panthers feel about Mardy Gilyard?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:11 Panther man 18

12:11 Charles Chandler: He probably is a bit too slow for them, plus he's probably a bit too edgy for them. For instance, when Cincy coach Brian Kelly left for Notre Dame, he was publicaly critical of the move. That's not a Carolina-type response.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:11 Charles Chandler

12:11 [Comment From draft needsdraft needs: ]

If panthers took The Golden Calf of Bristol, could he be an every down QB down the road?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:11 draft needs

12:11 Darin Gantt: I think he could be, provided you surround him with the right talent. He's smart, a leader, accountable. Coach him up and it could work.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:11 Darin Gantt

12:12 [Comment From Panther4lifePanther4life: ]

I love Damian Williams whats your take on him and will be there when we pick? thanks

Monday April 19, 2010 12:12 Panther4life

12:12 Charles Chandler: He might well be there when the Panthers pick. He's probably going to be a slot receiver. Has great moves in the above field and is a yards-after-catch specialist. But the problem is he is from Southern Cal. Don't think they'll take a third Trojan after not hitting on Keary Colbert (04) and Dwayne Jarrett ('07)

Monday April 19, 2010 12:12 Charles Chandler

12:13 [Comment From BillBill: ]

How do you think the top 5 (or dare I say top 10) will - or should - shake out? For ex I think DET may nab McCoy over Suh. Also why are so many saying SF will take Spiller if there? With both Gore and Coffee around, they have much bigger needs.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 Bill

12:13 Darin Gantt: Five's the key in the whole thing. Bradford, two DTs and an OT, then who? Probably Berry. I think he's the next best player.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 Darin Gantt

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:13 [Comment From JoelJoel: ]

Why didn't the panthers atlease look at trading for Ted Ginn?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 Joel

12:13 Charles Chandler: Don't think it was ever on the radar.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 Charles Chandler

12:13 [Comment From sorthnarolinasorthnarolina: ]

When I look at Terrance Cody I can seeing him falling very far to even the 4th round. Do you think this is likely?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 sorthnarolina

12:13 Darin Gantt: When I look at Terrance Cody, I can barely see anything else. He goes in the first.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 Darin Gantt

12:13 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

Would the panthers take javier arenas even with one short CB already on the roster?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:13 Panther man 18

12:14 Charles Chandler: If he was faster, maybe, but he runs around 4.5. They are looking for corner help, but bigger and faster than Arenas

Monday April 19, 2010 12:14 Charles Chandler

12:14 [Comment From BWBW: ]

Do you think it makes sense to have a kickoff specialist take up a roster spot? I think Jason Baker is an avg punter so couldn't we draft / sign a punter that can also kickoff?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:14 BW

12:14 Darin Gantt: As long as it makes sense to have John Kasay kicking FGs. Baker's above average at his job, just not good at kicking off.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:14 Darin Gantt

12:15 [Comment From Chris PChris P: ]

Who do you think Fox has a #1 target player he would like to draft or do you think he will use his theory of the best avaliable player?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:15 Chris P

12:16 Charles Chandler: Yes, on best available player. Of the players they have any chance of getting, given they're at No. 48 and might move up by using next year's No. 1. One Guy who'd really fit is USC DE Everson Griffin, but he may be out of reach. He can rusher the passer and runs 4.64 40

Monday April 19, 2010 12:16 Charles Chandler

12:16 [Comment From GuestGuest: ]

where do you put the odds of Richard Marshall remaining a Panther this season?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:16 Guest

12:16 Darin Gantt: He's here for another year. Richard's looking to get paid after that, but I'm not sure you'd put him above Davis/Kalil/DeAngelo in order of importance there.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:16 Darin Gantt

12:16 [Comment From RobertRobert: ]

I'd like Erick Decker in the 3rd rd. Do you think he makes it to that rd.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:16 Robert

12:16 Charles Chandler: Maybe. He'll go in Round 2 or 3. Good prospect despite last year's injury. A definite maybe for the Panthers.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:16 Charles Chandler

12:17 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

Why do the panthers always draft local guys?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:17 Panther man 18

12:17 Darin Gantt: They've used sevenths on Captain and Hilee Taylor, but I don't think they prefer to pick locals.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:17 Darin Gantt

12:17 Charles Chandler: Looking at the poll, I see that more than 60 percent are saying OL is biggest need. NO WAY!

Monday April 19, 2010 12:17 Charles Chandler

12:17 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

Will the panthers still draft Special Teams guys?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:17 Panther man 18

12:18 Darin Gantt: They need to, because a better option at returner would help. Danny Crossman sure would have liked some of this help.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:18 Darin Gantt

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:18 [Comment From Panther4lifePanther4life: ]

If we do trade up who are some potential targets?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:18 Panther4life

12:18 Charles Chandler: USC DE Everson Griffen, Illinois WR Arellious Benn, Cal DL Tyson Alualu

Monday April 19, 2010 12:18 Charles Chandler

12:18 [Comment From Panther man 18Panther man 18: ]

How does Ron Meeks scheme change how we draft Defense from past drafts?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:18 Panther man 18

12:18 Darin Gantt: Speed is valued above all else. Can sacrifice size up front and at LB for guys who can run.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:18 Darin Gantt

12:18 [Comment From DT3428DT3428: ]

I keep hearing Golden Tate when it comes to Carolina. Does he really drop to 48?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:18 DT3428

12:19 Darin Gantt: Not sure he gets that far.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:19 Darin Gantt

12:19 [Comment From Ross in CLTRoss in CLT: ]

I think we should trade back to get more picks because the draft is so well stocked with WR and DT. What do you think?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:19 Ross in CLT

12:20 Darin Gantt: I could see them doing that. Cheap labor's hard to beat in this economic climate.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:20 Darin Gantt

12:20 [Comment From Jay in DCJay in DC: ]

Do I even need to watch Thursday night?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:20 Jay in DC

do u think the steelers willl draft qb

Monday April 19, 2010 12:20 lee harvey

12:21 Charles Chandler: Yes, they need insurance for Ben

Monday April 19, 2010 12:21 Charles Chandler

12:21 [Comment From Panther4life Panther4life: ]

Whats a bigger need Defensive Tackle or Defensive end? Monday April 19, 2010 12:21 Panther4life

12:22 Darin Gantt: I think they need more pressure from the ends than they have. They've got wave guys in the middle, unless they get a really good bargain at 48.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:22 Darin Gantt

12:22 [Comment From David David: ]

Please tell me you're joking that Marty and Co. may trade another 1st round pick. Monday April 19, 2010 12:22 David

12:22 Charles Chandler: Not joking. Have you paid attention the past two years.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:22 Charles Chandler

12:22 [Comment From chknwing chknwing: ]

I think Ndamukong Suh is well worth next years 1st and 3rd to trade up. Your thoughts. Monday April 19, 2010 12:22 chknwing

Is tate realy like S.Smith I just dont see it. Monday April 19, 2010 12:22 Panther man 18

12:23 [Comment From RDJ71 RDJ71: ]

Name some UFA's the panthers might consider signing AFTER the draft... Monday April 19, 2010 12:23 RDJ71

12:23 Darin Gantt: I think there's a load of veteran receivers. I've thought Josh Reed is a fit for many reasons.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:23 Darin Gantt

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:23 [Comment From Brian Brian: ]

Benn is getting a lot of pub but I think LaFell may actually be even better. He appears to be the best blocking WR in the draft as well. Do you think the Panthers would be interested in the second? Thanks Monday April 19, 2010 12:23 Brian

12:23 Charles Chandler: The big question with LaFell is how they fell about intangibles, character, etc. If they're ok with that, he's a definite fit and possibility

Monday April 19, 2010 12:23 Charles Chandler

12:24 [Comment From Ross in CLT Ross in CLT: ]

What happens to the 2011 draft if we have a lockout? Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 Ross in CLT

12:24 Darin Gantt: There will be a draft, just not sure when it will be.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 Darin Gantt

12:24 [Comment From Panther man 18 Panther man 18: ]

Are the panthers still going to keep a big NT in Meeks scheme? Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 Panther man 18

12:24 Charles Chandler: It depends on how you definite big. Not Maake big.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 Charles Chandler

12:24 [Comment From sorthnarolina sorthnarolina: ]

Do you see 2011 draft picks losing their value for trades due to the labor uncertainties? For example, a 2011 1st may only get us a 2nd instead of a 2nd & 4th. Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 sorthnarolina

12:24 Darin Gantt: Absolutely. That and the fact all the good underclassmen are in this draft.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 Darin Gantt

12:24 [Comment From JRamey JRamey: ]

What veteran QB do you see us signing after we draft The Golden Calf of Bristol this weekend? Monday April 19, 2010 12:24 JRamey

12:25 Charles Chandler: It's not a sure thing that they'll sign a vet QB. Depends somewhat on the budget. And though they like The Golden Calf of Bristol, they may not be in position to get him.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:25 Charles Chandler

12:25 [Comment From Panther4life Panther4life: ]

did the panthers make a play for brandon marshall at all? Monday April 19, 2010 12:25 Panther4life

12:25 Darin Gantt: Doubt it. Cost too much in picks, salary on the back side. Same as the rest of the WRs traded, they all wanted contracts.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:25 Darin Gantt

12:25 [Comment From Guest Guest: ]

The Panthers were one of two teams to privately look at Levi Brown from Troy, what is the real interest there? Monday April 19, 2010 12:25 Guest

12:25 Darin Gantt: Levi's a guy I've heard they have real interest in.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:25 Darin Gantt

12:25 [Comment From Bill Bill: ]

what projected 1st round pick(s) do you suspect will go much earlier or later than is commonly thought right now? Monday April 19, 2010 12:25 Bill

12:26 Charles Chandler: Depending on what mocks you've looked at, Maryland OT Bruce Cambbell could drop a lot farther down, into late 1st or early 2nd, despite amazing combine numbers. Of course, Al Davis could spoil this entire theory.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:26 Charles Chandler

12:26 [Comment From Panther4life Panther4life: ]

How much confidence do the other players really have in matt moore? Monday April 19, 2010 12:26 Panther4life

12:26 Darin Gantt: So long as he doesn't regress like he did in 2008 (when he had a chance to win backup job), that shouldn't be an issue. He's performed on game-day.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:26 Darin Gantt

[Samuel L. Jackson]

12:27 [Comment From McNasty McNasty: ]

Where do you see Taylor Price falling and do you think the panthers might try and scoop him up? Monday April 19, 2010 12:27 McNasty

12:27 Charles Chandler: Price figures to go mid second to mid third and Panthers are a possibility. Good downfield speed and hands.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:27 Charles Chandler

12:27 [Comment From Rio Rio: ]

is it possible the panthers will draft 2 WRs? 1 early then another later. just drafting 1 doesnt ensure we find a good #2 Monday April 19, 2010 12:27 Rio

12:27 Darin Gantt: Umm, how to say this? Yes.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:27 Darin Gantt

12:28 [Comment From Panther4life Panther4life: ]

Whos the most likely player to be a panther,any round? Monday April 19, 2010 12:28 Panther4life

12:28 Darin Gantt: Figured Charles (ECU man) would say Linval Joseph, so I'll go Armanti Edwards.

Is Everette Brown noticeably bigger this year? Monday April 19, 2010 12:28 Panther man 18

12:29 Darin Gantt: Yes. All his suit coats need to be let out. Maybe you saw Sunday's story.

IF Fox and Hurney had a choice between Colt McCoy and The Golden Calf of Bristol who do you think they would pick? Highly unlikely both are there at 48 though Monday April 19, 2010 12:29 Chris P

12:29 Darin Gantt: I think The Golden Calf of Bristol, even though that might not be the right answer.

Why would the Panthers draft a QB when all of the guy they currently have don't have much in game experience? Would it not be better to sign a veteran to go with the 2 we have and draft otherwise? Monday April 19, 2010 12:30 Scott

12:30 Darin Gantt: Good point. That's why I think trading a sixth or a seventh for Campbell makes more sense than drafting one.

Does Linval Joseph fit the panthers scheme would love to get him Monday April 19, 2010 12:30 fiz

12:31 Charles Chandler: Yes, he'd be great to play NT in this defense. Plus he almost certainl already loves Carolina BBQ

Is Jerry sacrificing the fans in Charlotte for the benefit of the CBA?

Monday April 19, 2010 12:03 JY

12:04 Charles Chandler: It's probably not that serious, but the budget-tightening is definitely with the big picture in mind. It's also to protect people in the organzation who don't work on the football side. He doesn't want to have to lay off any workers.

Monday April 19, 2010 12:04 Charles Chandler

12:04 Darin Gantt: I think it's deeper than it'

OHH Mysterious!

[PantherDude]

Too much time on your hands? LMAO! But thanks for posting the transcripts, MoFo. I can't wait for the Draft to be here & hope we make some smart choice that will help us when the new season start.

That's the first half hour... If you want more, holler...

Damn right I want more!!

edit...nevermind

[SmootsDaddy89]

Consensus seems to be that we're going to trade next year's first for an early second in this draft.

Demaryius Thomas here we come!
