I would continue to build around Newton.. Defensively speaking, you guys had plenty injuries. LaFell, Gettis, Nanee won't cut it.

As for Burfict.. He's a Top 5 talent..whether or not he goes there is really up for debate. I would take him...

#6 offense in the nfl #30 defense and you have us picking a receiver, (one who isn't a top 10 prospect at that)

As for Burfict he won't go there.

you're thinking too far down the road and you'd be making the team incredibly lopsided. the team has no problem putting up points. it's stopping other teams that is the problem. they can take care of WR later. focus on more immediate needs that will help the team get wins. adding a WR isn't going to do that.

you're thinking along the same lines that the falcons did. the falcons won't go far because they lack key elements and the gave them up so that matt ryan could have more weapons. he has them and they are still a one and done playoff team and that's all they will be because they aren't complete.

michael floyd is a bit overrated as well.

I like your insight, can't agree with some of the picks, but everyone has different opinions and the draft is still months away. I agree that even though their stock is slipping right now, I think Burfict and Jeffery will move back up the board. I think #5 overall is a tad bit high for Burfict, but I could legit see him go in the top 15. He just has some character concerns that would keep me from taking him in the top 15.

Loving the fact that you guys aren't programmed to think how ESPN or NFLN thinks... Its about thinking how YOU would improve the team.. right now, I'd take my chances with the guys on defense coming back from injury...adding a few depth guys while adding a young threat on offense

I appreciate your work, Czar, and I usually like your preview videos but I can't say I like this mock at all. And not only for our team. Besides the obvious opinions that have already been voiced (Floyd, Jeffery, Burfict) I don't really like Randle to the Texans (I think they'd pick Wright if he's available before Randle), I think Richardson goes too late (I think the Jets would jump on him if he's there when they pick, not to mention the Bengals with one of their picks). I do like a couple of picks (besides the obvious first few), I like Perry to the Chargers, Upshaw to the Cards, Brown to the Eagles (but I think Kuechley might be available when they pick and they take him). And about the Bears pick, I know they have a new offensive coordinator, but how would that make them look, to trade their 1st round TE for a 3rd round pick, then pick another 1st round TE the next draft.

While I'm not sure that's the direction Carolina will go, Floyd and Wright are ahead of Jeffery as prospects and are ranked as a borderline top 15 guys. (hell, most places have Sanu rated higher then Jeffery. Also some possibility that Jones makes a push into the first round, which would push Jeffery down even further.)

This year's draft is heavy offensively at the top with 2 QB's, 3 WR's, 3 OT's, 1 G and 1 RB rated in the top 15.

      It doesn't matter if you give him a new WR1. To do it you have to devoted MORE resources to him. At some point you have to stop or there's nothing left for the defense. Our defense looks like scrubs because that's what we've got because we've spent a shitload on offense. He got a 1st round WR and a shiny new RB in round 2.  Bryce had a couple of good games but we are not competing against the Chiefs or Eagles. They're headed to the playoffs with realistic SB aspirations and we're headed to a top 10 pick. Those teams have competed for an entire season where the Panthers have ummm... They've almost gotten to as many wins as Matt Rhule in a season.  Would you rather have Bryce or Lamar? Because we've spent more on Bryce and to build around him than what it would have cost to trade for Lamar.  This team can't get better when it's having to devote everything to making it possible for our #1 QB god to play average NFL football.  I may end up being wrong and Bryce may become the GOAT. But one thing you won't see me doing is flip flopping on where I stand every couple of weeks because he has good or bad games. I think Bryce is our version of Daniel Jones and I think we're going to fug ourselves pretending he's Pat Mahomes.
