So, so far it's:

Stephen Scheu, TE, Vanderbilt
DJ Foster, RB/WR, Arizona State
CJ Johnson, LB, Ole Miss
V'Angelo Bentley, CB, Illinois

Panthers signed Keyarris Garrett to go along with Funchess & Benjamin

Wow! He's a great fit for their offense. That's terrifying for the NFC South. He was one of my favorite receivers in the entire draft. I thought it would be great to grab him.

Also, super pleased about DJ Foster. He reminds me a lot of Vereen.

I had him pegged as a Vereen replacement last year before he decided to stay in college. Unfortunately he slimmed down a little and switched to WR. Will be interesting to see how we use him.

i remember posting about an article that said Arizona State were using a similar offensive system to us last year. A year later and we draft/sign two Arizona State offensive skill players. Coincidence?

2-TE 2-RB set, Gronk & Bennett on either side of the formation and Lewis & Foster flanking Brady in shotgun.... Just think about it...........

@reamer

Was Tanner Mcevoy yours? He's gone to the Seahawks.

That would be really interesting. Defend that Rex!

Place your money.

Yeah, really. We all love Lewis but our concern was that he needed to be handled with care in the regular season - our often-proposed solution was a 3 down back like Forte - but perhaps you could also plug in a guy like Foster who kind of does all the same stuff. Rotate them and use Blount as the hammer... Could work.

I can see him kill in the slot. Lower his shoulder a bit and make a move ala Welker.

Foster v White v Donald butler in camp. Death match.

Florida Atlantic CB Cre'Von Leblanc is a Patriot.

It's hard to resist immediately adopting Foster as a binkie, considering I had Lewis as one of mine last year. Feels a little like deja vu.

 

[zipster9]

Illinois CB V'Angelo Bentley headed to New England

5'-9" - 5'-10". Yeah he's gonna scare the likes of AJ Green, Larry Fitz, Marshall, etc...

 

[manxman2601]

Remind you of anyone?

V'Angelo Bentley and Cre'Von LeBlanc... two pretty damn fancy names. Both CBs to boot.

we should dump Malcolm Butler then.
