    I'm hoping for a trade but this franchise won't be changing it's spots to take Newton.

    Pick: Dareus

    what i'd want and what i think will happen are miles apart . . .

    They would love to trade down but that is not going to happen . .. so they will go ahead and roll the dice and take russel, I MEAN newton. If hurney was not the guy pulling the strings i'd have some hope. If they make a wiser decision and take a guy like dareus then I would contend that hurney was not the string puller. . .. and that would be good for this team IMO

    Tough to predict. Gotta come down to the big three. Newton, Green and Dareus.

    If we take Newton? Think about this (although it means nothing)...


    ...we've had pretty sick luck with our first rounders.

    ...and so we don't have a second. Not like we've ever hit on one...

    ...not much has changed? If we get Newton, then we get our next offense, because we have a staff that's too smart not to build around his strengths.

    And in two years, or three?

    NFC South?

    We comin'.

    I keep listening to these "experts" saying that "most likely" Newton is the pick but they have no concrete proof or evidence that we will choose this guy. They seem to be basing this off of what Hurney and Rivera are saying in interviews about how impressive Newton is.
    Well if you ask them what they think of Dareus or Green, they'd sing their praises as well.

    If a QB is in your top 4 and you don't have one you've got to take him.

    We are not the Broncos on D, we can take a DT or 2 in the 3rd round (where we actually seem to find players) where the debth is.

    Jerrell Powe
    Marvin Austin
    Jarvis Jenkins
    Drake Nevis

    Someone nice at DT will fall to us.

    Newton.

    I'd prefer a trade down, or Dareus.

    With all the talk Carolina did about saying the NFL has become a passing game and rules have made it almost vital to throw the ball to move the chains, I'm thinking -- and it's a long-shot hunch -- that Georgia wide receiver A.J. Green could still be in play.
    Wide receiver is Carolina's most glaring need, especially since Steve Smith seemingly doesn't want to be around and the feeling could be mutual. Other than him, what does Carolina have at wideout? Sure, there will be some good players from the third round and beyond (Carolina doesn't have a second-round pick) and they might be able to trade for a receiver or find some in free agency. In the end, though, would those caliber of players be any better than the guys they have now -- David Clowney, Armanti Edwards, David Gettis or Brandon LaFell?
