According to Gantt's latest mock we do. Of course it comes after a trade back, but I wouldn't be upset with it, however, in this scenario Fairley is still on the board.

I'd rather take Fairley based on need, but Jones wouldn't bother me at all.

Thoughts?

In all seriousness, if we could get the deal he suggests I would like it, though I think I'd personally go in a different direction than WR. I understand how there is DT depth though.

Gantt seems to be sold on Newton more than he thinks the Panthers are, though.

I thought it was pretty absurd until he mentioned getting Marvin Austin with the second round pick acquired in the trade. Austin, Jones, and maybe Stanzi in the 3rd would be fine with me. Then we get Jordan Cameron (TE) at the end of the third and Marcus Gilbert (RT) at the top of the fourth and we would be doing pretty good in first four rounds. Throw in a corner, linebacker and maybe another DT and I'd be more than happy with those picks.

I wouldn't hate getting JJ but I'm not a huge fan. I'd probably go Fairley or Amukamara if the draft went like that. I know he's off the board when we pick in this mock but I think if we trade down a dark horse guy that I wouldn't mind taking would be Quinn.

I'd take that Skins deal in a heartbeat (though I'd probably try to get a future 5th out of them as well).

Also, I wouldn't mind trading down again if we could get a good deal. Drop down to about the 21-25 spot, get another 2012 1st rounder and take Pouncey.

      Verge, why do you like Mykel Williams?

      The problem with drafting a DE/EDGE high in the 1st is the bust factor.  That position group busts at a scary rate.  We HAVE to hit our first 3 rounds.  Cant take chances on tweeners or potential guys.

      Man folks right on this site said Deion was gonna follow his son to the nfl and have a big impact on his draft stock with his interference and yet we have seen no such thing. He just signed an extension to stay in Colorado for the foreseeable future. The only thing we have seen is so called experts try to tank shedeurs stock with false accusations and rumors and deion just had to step in and shut it down. This why you have to stop listening to what certain people say. Too much hate and emotion in most opinions.

      Reason for Liking or Disliking Prospect X at 8 Overall

      That's sound logic! I think we could make a case for a few players. I know its not popular  with a few but Warren gives to the  identity we want. Tremble is mostly a blocker. Sanders flashed late but mostly a receiving  threat at the moment. Warren is an automatic 1st down, run blocks, runs the ball and can even line up and throw it. To me he is if you took the Taysom Hill and actually could play tight end too. I just think looking at Goedert, Kelce,  Laporta, Hoeckenson, Baltimore Tight ends, Knox and Kindcaid and etc... all the  last few teams had stellar Tight end play. Warren allows you to be unpredictable  on offense bc he is equally good at being a target, as he is a blocker. Don't want to run Bryce on a qb sneak, plug Warren in with the threat to pass. I would be happy with him, Walker or a few others. As long as the player isn't riding the bench year 1.
