So there’s the draft, now let’s look at the Carolina Panthers picks.
!sr. Round – WR Tavon Austin, WVU. This is a must pick if the
Panthers want to trade down. 2 teams want Austin (St Louis
And San Fransico.) St. Louis has the 16th and the 22nd picks
and would part with the 22nd and a later mid round pick to move
up. San Fransisco has 2 picks 31st and the 34th that they picked up
when they traded Alex Smith to Kansas City and would package
these to move up. Either of these would be attractive.
2nd. Round – 44th., The need for a Defensive Tackle and this is a
deep draft at the position so the Panthers take Kawann Short,
Purdue. A player that would go higher except for a loaded
board. He very strong against the run.
3rd Round. – Currently no pick.
4th. Round – Teron Armstead, OT Arkansas Pine Bluff. He was one
of the stars of the Senior Bowl and had incredible numbers at
the combine.
5t. round – CB D.J. Hayden. Houston. Except for a injury at the combine
that all most caused him his life he would be a 2nd round pick, getting
him here would be a steal.
6th. Round – CB Micah Hyde from Iowa. Backup at this position
that will play mostly special teams. This pick could change to a TE or
OLB by draft day.
7th round – no current pick.
