...and a couple of guys on this list who would look good in a Panther's uniform next year.

This should probably be in the NFL Draft forum but nobody reads that this time of year. Allen Bailey, the DT out of Miami is a freak and is probably a top-15 pick if he comes out early. Our defense could use a DT that can dominate from the inside--I like our guys just fine, but we could use some more depth, and I'd rather have the luxury of using Damione Lewis as a rotational, third down guy.

I think Taylor Mays could be another Adrian Wilson, but I also think that he, along with Sam Bradford and Gerald McCoy from Oklahoma, will have their draft stock negatively affected somewhat, like Matt Leinart, by them returning to school. All three would have probably been the first picked at their position last year, but i think this year some stud underclassmen will steal their thunder.

Mays is an awesome hitter, but i think he might struggle in coverage in the NFL, and Eric Berry, the SS from Tennessee, is just a better player and should be a top-5 pick. McCoy is great, but he could be the 2nd or 3rd DT taken if the hype I'm hearing about Ndamukung Suh (Nebraska) is true. And you never know when the light will come on for Marvin Austin (UNC).

    • Interviews are huge for Green.  I agree people can change and make dumb decisions, but he was straight up kicked out of a program and had to leave UVA.  That just doesn't happen for a one time minor offense.   It's why I've been cautious with getting excited about him.  If he checks out with teams, he could go quite high.  If he seems like a kid with some issues, then there could be a nosedive.  
    • Will say, a Warren choice could be favorable if you're considering the FA and mid-rounder landscape.  FA on offense is simply bad this year.  There's no real multi-year investments.  Defense is much different.  There's also not exactly any true elevators on offense draft wise outside of Jeanty and Warren (I do like Loveland a lot).  So if one of the few blue chips is there...I mean... And R2-3 has more impact options on defense. There's some REALLY appealing IDL (which is one of my top concerns) Tyleik Williams, Norman-Lott, Alfred Collins, & Philips to name a few.  Also at EDGE with Elijah Roberts, Tuimoloau, Ivey, Swinson, & Princely.  Not to mention Xavier Watts and others at DB.   We'll be attacking FA first which will predicate a lot.  And we are likely looking heavy defense, it may make taking a blue chip offensive guy quite appealing depending on who we get.  
    • Is it really too late for Tepper to apologize and do the right thing with this abandoned project?
