Who are some guys you are looking at in the 2nd round?

It depends on what players we get at 9 and 19, or wherever we draft if we trade, but here are some guys I would like to see us grab with the 39th pick:

Ben Hansbrough : Shot 44% from 3 pt range this year. At 6'3 203, he can play both guard positions, and showed strong ball-handling abilities as the primary ball handler this past year. Plays very hard and with a chip on his shoulder. He will probably never be a starter, but could contribute very solid minutes off the bench.

Keith Benson : Could be the center we all hope to get out of this draft. Needs to add size, but has the frame to do so. He was the primary scoring option at Oakland, scoring 18 pts a game on 55% shooting. Also averaged 10 rebounds and almost 4 blocks per game. He is a finesse player, but could turn into a starting center down the road with some muscle gain and solid coaching.

Jon Leur : Another big guy with a solid mid-range shot. Leur could give solid minutes right away. Averaged 18 points and 7 rebounds this past season for Wisconsin. He is a bit more of a banger than Benson, but his ceiling may be a little lower. He will be a top role player in the league one day.

JaJuan Johnson : Johnson is 6'10 220 is a similar player to Benson. He is more of a finesse player with good range on his shot. Averaged 20 pts 9 rebounds and 2 blocks per game last year. Was the primary scorer at Purdue. Needs to work on strength, but works hard on the defensive end. Could become a starting PF one dayk, but more than likely will be a solid role player.

There are a bunch of other guys I think can become good players that might be available at 39: David Lighty, E'twaun Moore, Jon Diebler, Shelvin Mack, Jamie Skeen. Like I've said before, I want to get a scorer and a big man in this draft. I think it would be easier to grab some scorers in the first round, then get a big man like Benson or Leur in the second. I really like Leur because he is a polished player that could contribute right away.

    • I've watched and listened to several evaluations from the good ole youtubers.  From what I was able to watch, the first few drives before I left to do a job to the end of the game were very different for Bryce.  So he had a "good" game.  Which is great.  I love a win, period.  His WRs had some drops, thing ripped away, etc.  Not great, but a W is a W, right? I think the Panthers have to start Bryce.  You have to see if he continues to build on the good plays and make fewer and fewer bad plays.  No QB is going to play a perfect game.  But we need to continue to see Bryce make plays.  Does he have the ability to will his team to victory?  I'm not sure. I'm still in the Bryce is a backup QB camp.  I'm glad he had a good game, I glad we won, but I need to see more before we make a decision to keep or trade him.  Playing Andy literally does NOTHING to help you for the future.  Andy may not even resign with the Panthers.  We could be out both starting QBs by the time FA/Draft season hits. Ultimately, this is a Dan Morgan and Dave Canales issue.  Can they get value out of Bryce to help them improve the total roster?  Is there a FA QB who would be an upgrade?  A surprise cut or post season trade?  Or is there a QB at the top of the draft who they think they can mold into a high level starting QB?  I don't know. I do know I want to see more of Bryce Young and more out of him on the field.  I want to see the fire, the competitor come out.  I want him getting pissed.  I want him to grab his beanbag and tell us all he's the f'ing dude.  I just don't think we'll see that out of Bryce.  If not the fire, then let me see the ice - let me see the rattle proof dude who kills with accuracy and playmaking no matter how hot and crazy it gets.
    • Ickey at LT and Brady as Center / Swing position player is more valuable to our team IMO
    • That's fair but signing a veteran like Justin Fields to a one year deal and drafting defense with our first is always an option two.  I personally don't think these QBs this year are top 10 worthy selections
