Quote:First of all, if the Panthers want him so much then they need to give us their 1st pick in round 2 (#40). Forget about the other picks. You are right that they'd have to part with much more in dealing with S.F. so they'd still be better off dealing with the Jaguars. If Carolina refuses, then the Jags should either stay put and either take Allen or Fournette or try to deal with the Browns. If the Panthers do agree to this deal, I would go with the following:

 

Rd. 1 (8) -  O.J. Howard

Rd. 2 (35)- Dan Feeney

Rd. 2 (40)- Curtis Samuel

Rd. 3 - Jordan Willis/Derek Rivers/Dawuane Smoot- Best pass rusher available

Rd. 4 - Adam Bisnowaty

 

I skipped rounds 5-7 because I do believe this team has enough overall young talent that it will be tough for late round picks to make the team. I'd probably try to give up some of these to move up for a guy that they really like in rounds 3 or 4.

 

My scenerio, other than round 3, was all Offense for the obvious reasons. The offensive line adds 1 immediate starter and a guy who has the ability to immediately provide depth at right tackle or guard. Samuel is a guy I'm really starting to like. He would be an excellent complement to Ivory, who will remain the starter unless his fumbling continues to be a problem. He could also be used in the slot where his explosiveness would create problems for whatever defense they play. 

 

No quarterback was taken. This is Bortles last shot and it's obvious the coaching staff plans to go with him. If he fails, this will be their 1st pick in 2018. With so much talent in this draft through round 4, why waste a pick in rounds 2-4 on a guy who is extremely unlikely to ever become their franchise q.b. Nathan Peterman is one of the guys who is being hyped as a possible round 2/3 sleeper, but his arm strength is a big problem and I just can't see him becoming the guy. Even someone like Mahomes, should he be available in round 2, would be too risky to take when they could fill their biggest need with a reliable plug and play guy like Feeney or Dawkins.
