In The First Round, The Panthers Select....

[Zod]

My official first round draft choice is... Dontari Poe.<br />

<br />

A true nose tackle, Poe is the anchor this defensive line needs. At close to 350 pounds, he can hold his ground and disrupt what the opposing offensive lines are trying to do. While Poe will not rack up sacks or even tackles, he will be an integral and unheralded piece of the defense. Should the Panthers ever move to a 3-4, he would fit the mold.<br />

<br />

Yes, we have Ron Edwards, a mediocre starter at best even when healthy. Now that he is coming off an injury, I have little faith.<br />

<br />

This pick instantly improves the Panthers run defense between the tackles, where they were gashed last season at will.<br />

<br />

So it is written, so it will be done.<br />

Quentin Coples ...what do I get after I win??

[nctarheel0619]

Who's Ed Johnson? Just curious................

[D34Williams]

Ed Johnson is not a member of the Carolina Panthers.

[YoungPanthers89]

You mean Ron Edwards?

[Zod]

Whooops, haha, yeah. Where the hell did Ed Johnson come from.

[jtnc]

If your highlight video is 80 percent of the NFL combine, then that's a red alarm already.

[Riverboat Ron]

Whooops, haha, yeah. Where the hell did Ed Johnson come from.

Played DT for us in 2010.

[PantherBrew]

If there are no surprises, then Poe could be the pick.

Unless Coples, Claiborne, Blackmon fall.

If this does happen. Maybe someone trades up to draft Tannehill.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

If Claiborne is not there then Poe has to be plan B. Exactly what we lack and what we desperately need.

[Kuech Da Sneak]

Seen him get stopped cold in his tracks more than a few times by people that weigh 100 pounds less than him.

If he can't handle a back blocking him, how will he command double teams as a NT?

Don't want him at 9.

[jayflip]

Poe is to DT as that one Jet was to DE. He busted so bad after work out warrioring, I don't even remember his name...

[Zod]

Poe would not only instantly upgrade our NT position, but out UT position also. I suspect McClain would have a great year.
