Panthers Apparently "love" Luke Kuechly

[Growl]

Would rather take Decastro than Kuechly. Same positional value, better overall prospect. Might as well.

How ready was Beason as a rookie?

VERY ready. What the hell were you watchin??

[Donald LaFell]

VERY ready. What the hell were you watchin??

lol yeah I remember they made him play into the 4th quarter during pre-season games because he held out and it was obvious he was no scrub.

That was my point. Someone was implying since Luke would be a rookie he wouldnt be ready. Good LBs are ready week 1.

Luke kuechly would definitely be ready week one. I think he is gonna be a pro bowl player, i just think this year we should look to upgrade somewhere else. Im just not ready to start spending first round picks on linebackers again. Not yet.

If we draft Kuechly we have the best lb core in the NFL. Along with the best RB's, i can dig it

Outside of Claiborne, I think Kuechly is our best bet. No way TD plays all 16 games without re-injuring and even if he did he will not be the linebacker he was. Love TD's heart but reality is reality. Also with Beason's injury, our LB core is a huge question mark.

If Clay is gone, the choice is easy.

Yes Cox!!

Yes with week DT in front of them. We draft Cox and you can live with Avg. LB play.

A great Rb corp and great LB corp. The key to success.

in '65.

What im trying to figure out is if we draft Kuechly who comes off the field on third downs? We are paying Beason and Anderson too much money to only play two downs and we run a lot of nickel and dime anyway, especially against pass heavy offenses. being deep at LB is not gonna help us overall if none of them can pressure the qb which they cant. If they draft him it would be interesting to know what the philosophy to success will be on defense.

[koolkatluke]

IF Mo Claiborne is there at 9, I really want him, but I don't see him falling to 9. So, next best defensive player, imo, Kuechly.

Next best Defensive player is a Dlinemen that can play all the line position. That's what you were trying to say.

[Jak3Allen]

Yea the DL could use help but Ron Edwards is coming back, that helps tremendously. We could use an upgrade for Martin at safety, and a number 2 corner. In my opinion the secondary is the biggest need. We threw two rookies into the shark tank last year. Rotation at that position helps. All Im sayin is if kuechly is the pick, this board shouldn't explode like it probably will.

Better thought is all the Dline combinations with CJ, Hardy, and COX!!!

Get Cox over 300 and it's acceptable. DT's under 300 is a no no. IMO
