Ideal 1st Round Pick for Carolina [UPDATED]

[AceMan]

Taylor Lewan - OT

 

6'8 - 315lbs

 

I actually had a daydream Gettleman picked two OTs in the 2014 draft..

[pantherj]

I'd pick up a new LT in the first, and shift Gross over to RT.

 

I'm in favor of filling WR needs with FA, so I was thrilled with picking up Ginn. I don't want to draft WRs unless there is a clear stud. I hate the idea of taking a chance high in the draft on a WR and picking a bust. Either the WR is a beast, or a project that might not pan out. No thanks to the projects. Years on our roster, never see the field, and then they're cut. Omg no. Get the FA WRs who are a known commodity, or draft an obvious stud.

I don't follow CFB all that much....is there a vertical guy with some serious ball skills?

 

 

Say 6'4 and above, with hands, and deep speed?

[Growl]

Lol why is it every time there is a thread about a good WR prospect somebody says "Well I mean I'd rather have that really tall guy, really tall guys are just so awesome."

 

Tall lanky jumpball receivers are a dying breed. People prize talent over height instead, and given that most corners are under 6 foot, teams aren't seeing any drawbacks to it. There isn't a 6'4" wideout in the country who is more naturally talented than Watkins and anybody who would make a decision based on something so relatively insignificant to the total package is stuck in the past.

Woah.

[Growl]

And for the record, those oh so lustfully desired jump ball skills you guys keep raving on about seldom ever have much to with height

[Zaximus]

Vertical should be more important than straight height, unless someone is really, really short.   Smith used to be able to jump with the best of them and that negated his height.

Do you know what kind of offense we run?

 

AJ Green and Megatron sure are a dying breed....

[Cary Kollins]

Ideally I'd like WR from Texas Tech, Mike Evans.

6' 5 -225 with speed

I wouldn't be upset with any WR or OLine in the 1st round honestly.

[mbarbour21]

Id be cool with going O-line the 1st and 2nd rounds. Maybe a nice TE that can block & catch in the 3rd, Then trade up, back into the 3rd (if necessary), to get the best CB left. WR in FA.

[beastson]

It's still Marqise for me nothing has changed

[nctarheel0619]

Call me crazy, but I like the receiver from A&M.

So what you're saying is that youre under the impression that a vertical offense is predicated exclusively on the 9 route? Or are you saying that what separates guys like Green or Johnson from the rest of the league's wideouts is an inch or two they may have on other wideouts?

 

 

lol.
