I see the opposite, I don't think this is a very strong rookie fantasy crop at all....lots of players that will have NFL impact yes, FF impact, I don't see it...then again I could just be a bit biased due to where many IDP prospects fell.

Then I should have a pretty easy time acquiring your 6th, 7th, & 8th rounders in trade?

You can acquire them...but knowing that you value them won't drive the cost down

I dont agree with Kendall Wright. I see him as a slot receiver

Anyone heard anything about where Wright lined up in rookie minicamp today?

I also just read that Kuechly is starting out at WLB.  Per Rotoworld:
"First-round pick Luke Kuechly will begin his Panthers career at weak-side linebacker.

Jon Beason will stay in the middle for now, and Rotoworld draft analyst Josh Norris believes they're Kuechly and Beason's "best positions." Though a sure tackler, Kuechly isn't a thumper like Beason and should excel in more of a flow-to-the-action role. Thomas Davis will return as a backup only, for now. James Anderson remains entrenched as the starting strong-side linebacker."

I'm missing something here.  You don't draft a kid like Kuechly and then put him on the edge.  It would be like putting Blackmon in the slot.

I thought he was a 3 down guy, good coverage skills, rangey.  Isn't that what you need at WLB?

Besides, it all hinges on the health of Beason anyway.

ETA:  Right?  That's how I read it.
