Round 1 is done...who's left, what's needed?

[PantherBob]

I cant wait for the 2nd round pick to be made so people will quit saying that we're going to trade next years 1st like they know something.

[God]

Chances are Benn could be there at 48' date=' thats why I'm predicting we trade our first next year for an early second this year grab Griffen and then take Benn with the 48.[/quote']

That would be great. I just really hope Benn is there at 48.

[SmootsDaddy89]

I can't wait for us to trade next year's number one so I can rub it in peoples' faces.

I don't think it will happen, and I may be in the minority, but if we do trade up to get Clausen, then I will be thrilled. As much as I like Moore, even if he maxes out his potential, I don't think he is anywhere near Clausen's level. I know some here think he will bust, but based on what I saw from him in the several ND games I watched this year, I feel he is going to be a special QB in the NFL.

With that said, if we did trade up, I wouldn't use either our 2nd or 3rd round picks to do it since we still need a WR and DL (they are clearly our first priority). Our #1 next year and maybe this year's 4th would probably be fair.

well... 31 teams did just pass on him.... do u think that lowly of matt moore?

[Woodie]

I don't know why some people want us to move up to take either Kindle or Griffen. The team obviously is VERY high on Brown, and most here have talked about how Johnson is poised to breakout. But if we trade up to get a top DE, then that effectively takes either Brown or Johnson out of the picture as one of our starting DE's of the future...and likely for only a moderate difference in production.

If we trade up, IMO, it will be for a DT, WR, or QB. We can address our need for a rotational DE a little later in the draft or even in the post-draft wave of FA.

Well, 32 teams passed on Matt Moore for all seven rounds, so what's the point?

Don't get me wrong, I like Moore, but I don't see him as anything more than a solid game manager. And if he is who we have, I am fine with him starting...even long-term. With the offense as we have seen it, all we need is a game manager, but I truly believe Clausen would bring a level of explosiveness to the passing game that we haven't ever really seen here in Carolina (except for one pass-happy year in '99). And while I know some will say Fox would never open things up, I would disagree. I think Fox tries to coach to his player's and team's strength's and hide weaknesses, so if he had a QB with Clausen's accuracy and decision-making, he would expand the offense to take advantage of it....but that's just my opinion, and since we most likely won't pick him, we'll probably never really know.

Take whomever the best WR in the 2nd (Benn),

Carlos Dunlap, C.J Wilson, Austen Lane are maybe around in the 3rd.

Thankfully the WR and DE classes are kind of deep me thinks.

[carpanfan96]

I don't really listen to what he says, but I thought it was slightly funny and everyone here would get a kick out of it.

Pete Prisco has us taking Cam Thomas, DT from UNC with the 48th pick now....Here's the kicker Both Benn and Tate are still on the board when we pick in his 2nd round mock. Other Notables still available Taylor Mays and Carlos Dunlap.

it's probably going to happen. We need help and JR probably doesn't mind not having to sign some rookies during a labor stoppage.

[Rononoa3000]

I have decided to go to bed now and that I think the draft will like this..

2: WR Taylor Price

3: DE Corey Wooton

Two underrated but great players.

Goodnight.

31 teams passed on Clausen in the first round.

32 teams passed on Moore 7 times over.

Moore was an undrafted free agent.

Don't forget about D. Washington, OLB out of TCU. Not only is he a great prospect but our new President of Operations was the AD at TCU before coming to the Panthers.
