If the Panthers take a S at 8 imma riot

lol I was just thinking this when reading that other thread that just got started where the guy said he likes a Safety at #8.

Yea, I'd love one of those major impact Safeties that we haven't seemed to have in forever, but I don't think there is an Ed Reed in this class, just seems like it would be a waste at #8 to go that way.

I'd rather take the TE from Penn State at 8 than go with a Safety, and I couldn't be more against doing that anyways.  OL and S might be the only two positions I'd have a serious issue with if we used #8 on those positions, anything else could be justified, I'd even take an elite MLB over either of those two (if there was one we liked enough, but don't think there is this year anyways).

Carter is an elite ILB and is totally worth the 8th pick if he's there

      They stayed with TD, and that paid off. I think people are wondering if the rumored interest is indicative of their thinking. You have to know they are working the cap all day--and looking at Horn's deal.  In the past, we dealt players with injury concerns--Horn has missed a season and a half.  We are about to invest a lot of money in him if we keep him.  Horn's CarFax report has 3 accidents on it.  You buyin'?  Just reading tea leaves.  I think I would keep him with the new training and conditioning staff-but I hear you.

      I also think you have to look at draft depth.  If a DT is the best player but you expect some good ones to be around in late round 2, do you take the edge, even though he might be a bit lower on your board, then take the DT later?  They always say, "We take BPA," but would 2 starters be better than 1?  Hard to say hypothetically, but if I know DTs are deep, I value them a bit less than an edge players, who I have higher on my board based on the scarcity of the talent at that position--this is, of course, if you enter the draft with needs that were not adequately addressed in free agency.  If we need a DT and an Edge, for example, let's say Graham, DT Michigan is ranked 22nd on your board.  There are 8 DTs expected to go later on day 2.  Pearce, Edge, Tennessee, is ranked 26th on your board but there are few Edge rushers with his skill set left in the draft--let's say 1 more until the talent level drops significantly.  Who do you take?
