Zod's Official Panthers Mock Draft Rounds 1-3

[Cpt slay a ho]

not bad but i think there's some guys that fall that will be a better pick then moses, and a cb in the 2nd isn't my personal fav.

This thread is full of arm chair gms...holy poo

 

 

Considering no one here is an actual GM I'd like to inform you that the sky is blue.

[Mr. Scot]

Without using an existing mock draft as a basis or listing your own full mock there isn't much to base whether it is good, bad, or even realistic. Just picking 3 people doesn't give any perspective.

 

It's not necessary to have a full blown mock just to predict who might be available where we pick.  You can go by what round they're projected to be taken in.

 

No one will know exactly how anything falls until draft Day.  And there are always surprises.

 

(the presence of the Raiders ensures that)

Knowing what round they are projected doesn't tell  you much of anything regarding availability. With 32 selections per round every pick affects the way a draft will unfold. It might tell you not to expect a 5th round projection in the 2nd but not really and we know that around here (Armanti and Kugbilla). You certainly can't be assured that a player to go in round round 3 vs 2 or 3 vs 4 based upon media projections.

 

I guess one can pick some players they like in a general round but it's next to impossible to defend or criticize it with no frame or reference.

[UpstatePanther]

You had me until Abbrederis

 

whats wrong with him?

Well yes, mock drafts are essentially playing GM....or GMs

Which we won't have until the actual event.

 

Right now, pretty much everyone but the most hardcore draftniks is just going by what round players are projected to.  No one can know any more than that until the actual draft plays out. Hence, this is the framework we have right now.

Here we are folks, two weeks out from the draft. I have crunched the numbers and applied out proprietary algorithm.

The following is a spoiler alert.

Round 1 - Morgan Moses - OT - Virginia

The departure of Desean Jackson in Philly solidifies their Brandin Cooks selection, who was previously my pick for the Panthers. Moses may be best at right tackle, which would make for much camp intrigue. Could the Panthers really be considering Byron Bell at left tackle? Could be. Bonus: The Moses selection would open up the floodgates for corny Old Testament puns from our tired local media.

Round 2 - Marcus Roberson - CB - Florida

This is a classic best player available pick. Yes, wide receiver is a huge need, but cornerback is not far behind. Roberson is a value at pick 60. He won the starting job at Florida as a true freshman. He could be a day 1 starter as well, which is all you can ask for from a second round pick.

Round 3 - Jared Abbrederis - WR - Wisconsin

Abbrederis is the best route runner in the draft. Under the tutelage of Ricky Proehl he will develop into a reliable clutch possession receiver. This kid is first and foremost a football player, and Gettleman is a guy that appreciates that. Abbrederis is as close to pro ready as any WR in this draft.

Would fap to this. Actually... I'll be back in 5.

[MedellinHeel]

Inconsistent injury prone CB with the 2nd and a at best #2 WR in the 3rd. 

 

I assume you fap to trollish whale women haha

I've usually seen people pick a mock to base their decisions off of. It doesn't have to be perfect but that's they way I have usually seen it done. Then everyone can compare their decisions with some sort of structure.

 

That is all I was saying.

[Mr Mojo Risin]

Considering you cant even comprehend what the term "arm chair" means I'm actually surprised you knew the sky was blue that must be a break through for you

[SmokinwithWilly]

If we take Moses, the first time he opens a gap for will or jstew, there will be a comment about parting the sea.

I get that.

 

I just don't think it's an absolute necessity for a generalized discussion like this.

 

Kinda doubt Zod did a full three round mock.

 

(cue him coming in and saying he mocked all seven rounds and undrafted free agents) :lol:
