NFL Combine

I just hope the Panthers get a new D-lineman. I think the DE's are pretty weak this year, but there is good stock of DT's. Other than that, I'd wanna see them draft a CB in the 2nd and follow it up with a WR/QB in the 3rd, should any guys fall back. I doubt that 3rd round scenario though.

I still worry about Godfrey at safety and I'm not sold on Richard Marshall or C.J. Wilson. I'm especially not sold on Ken Lucas. I still see problems at the #2 CB position this year.

What is great is that if you look at the draft since 2002 and John Fox, all our first round picks are still starters (minus Peppers who is gonna go bye bye, of course). The Panthers draft damn good players in the first round. We need another first round pick this year.

Hakeem Nicks. I think Hakeem Nicks will fall to mid 2nd round unless he has an amazing Combine (I just see more teams getting RBs or Linemen over late 1st round WRs with this years FAs).

We don't need another WR.....

I'd love Micheal Johnson and/or first round calibre CB/DT instead.

Says who?

Lets look at our current WR roster, shall we?

Steve Smith- Obviously the best receiver on the roster

Moose- Good but losing his step, could see retirement next year if not this year

Dywane Jarrett- Unproven, still has to prove that he can take over for Moose

The drop off

Hackett- Injury proned and on the verge of being cut

Carter- Unproven and not really sure where they stand

Ryne Robinson- Got injured and seems to be beaten out by Jones

Jones- Solid ST contributor but lacks ideal WR traits

Honestly, this isn't a bad class for receivers and it wouldn't hurt to look.

We are better off getting Hakeem Nicks with our 2nd round then any CB/DT that are still on the board.

Keep in mind that our 2nd round pick is currently 59th overall. If he is still available at 59th, he will be the best player on the board.

I'd bet we either get a WR or a LB with that 2nd round pick. I'm happy with our LBers and would rather see Moose help someone his last years in the pros then panic when Moose retires.

Also, Micheal Johnson will not be around that deep in the 2nd.

Would the team consider a WR with our first pick?

I love Heyward-Bey, he's got Steve Smith's speed and catching abilities plus 5 inches. But the only way we get him is if we nab him in the first or early, early second. That doesn't seem likely given our needs on the D. Still, I drool at the possibility
