So who would you like the Panthers to draft with our 4th overall pick?

Little premature. We've been a second half team before. Look at the 2009 season.

As far as who I want, I want a solid DT or a linebacker with the first pick. WR just isn't smart, considering the depth and youth of our receivers. Sure, an Alshon or Blackmon would INSTANTLY improve our WRs, but we have bigger needs. Need DT/LB first and foremost. Then, in the 2nd round, we take which ever we didn't take in the first round between DT/LB. 3rd round, we take a DB/WR/OL. Whichever position has the best guy. After that, it's just depth wherever we need it.

Olsen was our third round pick....and well worth it....

i would take blackmon/jeffery or trade back no more than 3 spots to ensure we get whichever one is still available. gotta make sure we have a franchise WR after smitty leaves.

then we'll have two high seconds where we can draft a OLB (doubt zack brown will fall that far - maybe travis lewis? idk). could also grab a DT or CB. CB is fairly deep this year and DT is really, really bad. might not be one to go in the top 20 picks unless someone begins to play out of their mind and/or has an excellent combine.

      Canales Addresses CB position

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I think they are holding back to see what they have in the young guys, but I think it's a near certainty at some point they will bring someone else in. Right now (assuming we keep 5 CBs which is normal), the top 5 IMO are: 1) Jaycee Horn 2) Mike Jackson 3) Chau Smith-Wade 4) Shemar Bartholomew  5) Akayleb Evans   Obviously Jaycee is the alpha in that room and paid as such. Need him to stay healthy and continue to play at a Pro-Bowl level. Mike Jack did pretty well all things considered last year, and they gave him lower-level starter money. Fair deal for both sides.  Smith-Wade showed some promise as a slot CB. I think low-key he's a lock for the team. Different size and skill set than the other CBs. Shemar Bartholomew was the most sought after waiver claim last preseason. Was 5th CB most and inactive most of last year. Had a few defensive and ST snaps. Nothing of note good or bad but too small a sample size to make any judgment. Akayleb Evans was a 2022 4th Rounder for the Vikings. Has started 19 games (including Week 18 for the Panthers) in his career and played in 43. Was pretty good in 2023 before getting injured and falling down the depth chart last year. There's some other guys on the outside looking in, but until they show more in training camp I dont see anyway they make the 53. And only Jaycee, Mike Jack, and Smith-Wade are locks to make this roster IMO.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.

      They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it.
