This year is no different, and that disparity has worked out in the favor of the Carolina Panthers. The board is still heavy with probably-talented offensive line and defensive back prospects.The Panthers don't have a slam dunk starter at either left guard or free safety. Their depth across the line and the defensive backfield is also perilously thin. An ideal second round pick can go a long way towards filling one of those holes. But which one should they focus on?Their pick should be an offensive tackle. Daryl Williams is an unknown quantity following his knee injury last year and may ultimately return as a better guard than he ever was a tackle. Picking a tackle in the draft affords the team the flexibility to field five talented linemen with a modicum of insurance in the event of injury.Most of the remaining tackle prospects have the capacity to kick inside to guard if needs be. The same can't be said of the natural guards. Williams might also factor into the guard plans if the Panthers have an able body capable of replacing him on the outside.At that point Eric Reid Jersey 2019 , selecting a left or right tackle is irrelevant because Taylor Moton can technically play both. That leaves the Panthers, assuming the draft board falls even mildly favorably, deciding between a safety and another talented lineman. That should be an easy choice. Put another way, another talented lineman trumps not another talented lineman.The second right might start with a run on tackles. The Panthers might have a secret yearning for a receiver that most of us have never heard about before. The draft is weird and full of mistakes Blue Ian Thomas Jersey , so I'm not saying they will draft any protection for Cam Newton. I'm just here arguing that they should. The Panthers have had a pair of impressive offensive drives, but don’t have much to show for it.They’re leading the Seahawks 3-0, after settling for a field goal on the last drive, and giving the ball away on downs on their first attempt.The Panthers are moving the ball with relative ease Ian Thomas Jersey 2019 , running the ball efficiently with both Cam Newton and Christian McCaffrey, and Newton warmed up with a downfield throw to D.J. Moore, loosening things up a bit.But after stopping them on fourth down at their own 5-yard line on the opening drive, the Seahawks again held Womens Brian Burns Jersey , and the Panthers settled for a 26-yard field goal from Graham Gano. Those struggles in the red zone are reminsicent of last week’s failed two-point conversion attempt against the Lions, but the Panthers are otherwise controlling things early, outgaining the Seahawks 115-43 in the first quarter.
