Your reaction if we go DBs in the first couple rounds?

[MHS831]

If you let Hardy walk, you better upgrade your DBs.

 

However, if you let Hardy walk, you can  find free agents

WR needs to be addressed, I think it is much harder to find good one in FA.

Gettlefabuous loves hog mollies and the DBS we have we're getting the job done.

I think I've heard several coaches reference to the contrary.  It takes longer for WR's to develop on average then most other positions.  Obviously they're exceptions to the rule.  But if we're talking statistically what give the Panther's the best chance to boost WR production this coming season, it would be through FA.

Those opposing the idea are dolts. I don't care how elite our front six are, the day our pass rush is having a bad game we're gonna get torched. We'll get away with it during the regular season but come playoff time we'll get exposed BIG TIME. Have any of you not learned from the Texans?

DB is a glaring hole. There's room for WR and CB/S at the top of our board.

 

Then consider me a dolt.

 

If it was 1, yeah, I'd probably understand. Using our first 2 on defense would leave me with serious questions about our draft strategy.

 

Bell/Chandler are every bit as weak as our weakest DB's. Maybe Kugbilla pans out, but that still leaves Bell to deal with. And of course our limitations with our receiving corps has been thoroughly discussed.

 

We need touchdown scorers and OL at least as badly as we need DB's.

[Jakob]

I'm not even looking in depth for who I want. I trust Gettleman will make the right picks even if I hate it at first.

[Marguide]

You're not gonna find a player like Dennard (who played great in zone when asked to) in the 4th round. It's the same argument we've used for a receiver.

 

Uhhhh, Sherman?

[Marguide]

My argument is based on one DB, not two. 

 

I read the OP as speculating on going DB in both round 1 and 2.

[Panthers111]

Id rather have a corner that can start compared to a OT/WR that isnt good enough to unseat the lights of Bell or Lafell. I trust DG knows how to evaluate so I would be ok with whatever he picks. 

[TheRumGone]

If we double dip corners if someone like Matthews or Benjamin are available in the late first or late second I will lose complete faith in gentleman (that's only if FA is also a wash). I understood double dipping and was ecstatic about our front seven but it's time to get Cam weapons this will be his fourth year in the league. My god

[TruthVsComfort]

I will be extremely disappointed if we draft a corner at the expense of WR and OL talent in the first two rounds.

 

Solid, or even great, corners are very often found late in the draft. Here is a handful of the top corners in the league and where they were drafted:

 

Lardarius Webb - 3rd round

Keenan Lewis - 3rd round

Alterraun Verner - 4th round

Richard Sherman - 5th round

Brandon Carr - 5th round

jason mccourty - 6th round

tramon williams - Undrafted

Sam Shields - Undrafted

Brent Grimes - Undrafted

 

I am very happy with our #2 Defense and would like to make it less painful to watch offense by giving Cam some damn weapons. Specifically, a #1 WR.

[ajax4132]

Won't be upset if we get Calvin Pryor

[Carolina Mike]

What about LB & DLine with 1st & 2nd if they are the "BPA" & "Can't Miss"???? (Mind blown)

[pantherj]

Wouldn't surprise me at all if we went CB in the 1st round. Fox built our defense in the past by getting a dominant front 7 first, then a number 1 CB in Gamble. But with the state of our offense I'm hoping our first 3 rounds are offensive picks.

[El Chingon]

I'd be cool with it. 

[Catalyst]

Depends on what we do in free agency + who the DB's are. I really like Calvin Pryor, but he's more of a free safety and if we re-sign Mitchell we need a strong safety.
