I really hope that Justin Blackman falls to the panthers at 9...likely not to happen but steve smith is getting older and the #2's aren't worthy of a #1...but anywhere on the defensive side of the ball should be fine. I even heard they were looking at that LB from BC.

A couple of things i hope Panthers do not do: reach for Poe and reach Floyd.
I love what you guys have with Cam, Stewart, D Will, Tolbert.
I agree completely on Defense. If you guys get Kuechly, you should be ecstatic. I would also look at interior lineman, maybe Fletcher Cox.
In second round, i would snag best WR: Randle, Hill, Jeffrey or Given.
Possibly, build the O-line in second round.

I would like to see Kirkpatrick be moved to safety in the pros, not a big fan of him as a corner.

Not sure why, as a Redskins fan, you would want a QB. I mean we all know Jonathon "Mountain Damn Values" Crompton will start for them next year.

Man, VolsBrian, i was trying to keep that hush hush... We are going to draft blackmon, and run Crompton out there at the beginning of the year, and no one was goin to know...

As a Panthers fan I agree anywhere on defensive side but would love a great corner. Wouldn't mind being able to get Jeffrey in second round. He would be a great compliment for Smith.

I am a Redskins fan, so it doesn't really matter who they draft, because they will mismanage said player and ruin his career...
Looks like they will take RG3..... I feel bad for him, because he would probably be succesful if gets drafted by a well run franchise.... Instead, he will end up on the Redskins and Dan Snyder will ruin him (like he does to everyone else that has potential)......

All indications are that my Vikings are going to take Matt Kalil OT from Southern Cal. I hope they do take him and he is as good as advertised. It would be nice to give Ponder, Peterson and Percy a little help up front. Of course they have many needs, mainly secondary and a game breaking WR . . .

ponder looks like he has a lot of potential.... I agree and think taking an OL would be in the vikings and ponder's best interest....

i would think the panthers are going to go D early.... That is their biggest area of concern, IMO.... Imagine how many more games they would have won last year with a decent D, $Cam is a beast..... I think that franchise is going places as long as $Cam stays in Carolina....

I'm on the Dre Kirkpatrick or Melvin Ingram train for the Titans. I also read somewhere that Morris Claiborne scored a 4 out of 50 on the wonderlic. It would be great if that scares enough teams away for him to fall to the Titans at 20. Very wishful thinking i know.

Think the Bengals will go cornerback in Round 1 and running back in Round 2. Not sure who will be left at those spots when they pick, but I think they'll take the best available CB and RB in that order.

Honest question: Would you rather have Julio or the picks back. I go back and forth with it, and wonder for a Falcons fan what they would think

Picks, all day everyday! Julio is a great WR but we have WAAAYYYYYY more needs than WR, like DB, OL, DL.. We really need those picks back really bad, IMO
