The bad news: They play Buffalo at home this week. Buffalo will probably have a let down after an emotional win against the NYJ.
The good news: The following five weeks present a real headache:
@Arizona
@NO
Home against the Falcons
Home against the Dolphins
@NYJ
The bad news again: They play Tampa at home.
The good news again: The final four games are a nightmare for them-
@NE
Home against Minnesota
@NYG
Home against New Orleans
Projected out, I'll say they go to 3-3 after the Buffalo game, lose 4 of 5 to go to 4-7, win against Tampa to go 5-7, and then lose out to finish 5-11.
A 5-11 record usually gets a team a top 7 pick. And, with 6 teams who are absolutely abominable in the league: Tennessee, Tampa, St. Louis, KC, Cleveland, and Detroit, the Panthers are looking at that 7th-10th overall pick, in my opinion.

Had a chance to re-watch USC LT Charles Brown against the Irish. Just a stunning performance.
Although he wasn't matched up against anyone of significance, I think scouts are going to love his mobility and footwork, use of hands, and knee-bending.
He's listed at 292 right now, but I don't think 15 pounds will be an issue to add to his frame this offseason.
After watching Mays against ND the kid didn't impress. The single most fundamental skill of a defender is proper tackling, the kid doesn't understand how to do that. I know he has all the physical traits but he goes for the home run every play and would be a serious danger at SS. If Berry isn't available when we pick I would have no problem bypassing S and waiting till a later round.
agreed about Mays.
and theres quite a few Safeties out there for 2010.
Just to name a few, Earl Thomas(Texas), Major Wright(UF), Nate Allen(USF), Kam Chancellor(VT), Deunta Williams(UNC), Morgan Burnett(GT), and the list goes on.

Nice analysis.
I'd be perfectly fine with a 7-10 pick. That's where the best players are anyways, 1-5 is for the overrated QBs and workout warriors.

Those last 4 teams may be front runners in their division and they may not need the wins that badly, especially the last game.

I just don't think you take a S that high either way. Berry, maybe, but then, once again, we would be ignoring our most glaring needs. Polumalu and Ed Reed weren't even taken in the top 15, those are the only 2 worth maybe a top 10 pick, I don't think we're in the position for that risk. mays I do not put in this catagory. He's just not a playmaker. Besides, you can guarantee the Raiders take him after he runs a 40.

Cosigned. I'm not a big Mays fan though. He's not enough of a ballhawk for me. I like Berry way better but he'll probably be gone. I wouldn't mind an OT with this pick though, or a QB. The oline blows and Hill isn't the answer, we still don't know about Smith. Or heck even a guy like Kindle or another 3-4 OLB. I guess I'm saying is that we have a lot of average-decent players, but we can upgrade in a lot of those positions.

does anyone disagree that Tennessee will be the 1st overall pick? I see them winning at least 3 or 4 games. Top-10, but not 1st overall. 1st overall has to be the Rams.

After Week 5 of the NFL season, we are now 1/3 of the way through the season, and worth a preliminary peak at what might happen on draft day. I have projected the top 10 picks (with the four winless teams in the correct draft order). I'm not sure on the correct order of the one win teams, but at this point, I'll simply project how I think they will fall.
Just to note: The draft typically will have at least one LT drafted in the first handful of picks, and the same goes for the QB position. This year may drift from this trend, but I'll project some guys at these positions.
1. Tennessee- Jake Locker
2. St. Louis- Sam Bradford
3. Tampa Bay- Ndamukong Suh
4. Kansas City- Eric Berry
5. Oakland- Russell Okung
6. Detroit- Gerald McCoy
7. Cleveland- Carlos Dunlap
8. Buffalo- Dez Bryant
9. Niners (through Carolina)- Taylor Mays
10. Washington- Charles Brown
This is an early projection with the majority of selections eligible juniors who may or may not come out.
Cheers.
P.S. This is a big week for the NFC South Division, as the winless Bucs play at home against the one-win Panthers. Niners' fans should be plugged into that game to see if the Bucs can help the Niners' on the road to a higher draft choice. Of course, the Bucs are in full rebuild mold, especially after trading Gaines Adams to the Bears for a second rounder today, so I wouldn't expect a terrific performance.
