Latest Mock after Luck made decision

1. Carolina Panthers: A.J. Green, WR, Georgia

THE BUZZ: Carolina has got to be upset that Andrew Luck, who was a lock here, is returning to Stanford. They could go with a defensive lineman here, but they are hurting bad at wide receiver and may take Green as an athletic, flashy pick to try and help Jimmy Clausen and pacify a restless fan base.

2. Denver Broncos: Patrick Peterson, CB, LSU

THE BUZZ: OK, who wouldn't love to see Denver take Cam Newton? To have Tebow and Newton on the same roster? But it's not going to happen. It looks like Champ Bailey might not return, and if he does he might move to safety. And this team needs tons of help on defense.





3. Buffalo Bills: Cam Newton, QB, Auburn

THE BUZZ: The Bills have got plenty of holes, and would love to get Andrew Luck, but once Newton gets to the combine and displays his raw skills the Bills won't be able to resist the Heisman Trophy winner.

4. Cincinnati Bengals, Nick Fairley, DE/DT, Auburn

THE BUZZ: If Green is still here, he's the Bengals pick, as Terrell Owens and Chad Ochocinco are both probably gone. But they've got plenty of holes, and will go with Fairley, the best defensive lineman in the draft.

5. Arizona Cardinals, Robert Quinn, DE/LB, North Carolina

THE BUZZ: North n the NFC West, Arizona has to feel like it's just a player or two away from being back on top. A difference-making pass rusher is just what the doctor ordered, and Quinn is that

6. Cleveland Browns, Marcell Dareus, DT, Alabama

THE BUZZ: Cleveland would prefer to find an offensive playmaker to team with QB Colt McCoy. But after Green there just aren't many available. The team needs plenty of help in its front seven and will address that here.

7. San Francisco 49ers, Prince Amukamara, CB, Nebraska

THE BUZZ: The feeling is the 49ers would really like a quarterback here, and if Newton is gone Ryan Mallett is a possibility here. But he is a risk at this point in the draft, and Amukamara is clearly the best cornerback available. That's a beat weakness for San Francisco, and they'll go with the safe pick.

8. Tennessee Titans, Da'Quan Bowers, DE, Clemson

THE BUZZ: Free agency could change this, but Tennessee needs help on its D-Line and Bowers can simply rush the quarterback.

9. Dallas Cowboys, Derek Sherrod, OT, Mississippi State

THE BUZZ: The Cowboys have two huge needs – defensive back and offensive line. If Amukamara is here, Dallas won't pass him up. If not, they might try to trade down and take an o-lineman at a more appropriate spot. But if they're stuck, they'll take Sherrod, the best offensive lineman available.

10. Washington Redskins, Stephen Paea, DT, Oregon State

 

WR is prob our best position behind RB

We need CB & DT

 

that is stupid

 

Who's gonna throw to AJ Green?

OL and CB.

 

I have no idea whether one WR is better than the other, but high WR picks (plus having two of our three rooks playing somewhat well already) make me nervous.

Who knows what the consensus is from here. We may not find out who we want now until our pick.
This blows.

 

do we really need a WR that early? if we're gonna open up the offense, we might finally invest in tight end that scares people. and hey, why not two while we're at it after seeing what the Pats did this year.

agree that we can use an infusion at TE, and with a new coach, that might actually be possible. We went from killing off a good but old TE, so we could bring in a slot receiver so we could be more predictable, to not having a good slot receiver or TE. So TE seems like the other possible place to upgrade on O, since the starting line will probably look very familiar.

But no one drafts a TE #1 overall, and I don't see one worth a top 15 right now.

Truth be told, there's not a ton of room for youth on this O.

 

Hi guys here is what i think the Panthers should do now that Luck is returning to school
