My 2nd round pick in the SBN Mock draft being hosted by Mocking the Draft has been posted. I went with DT Dre Moore from Maryland with this pick as I'm sure some of you probably guessed I would. Though MTD's Matt Miller agrees with taking a DT with this pick he wasn't too enamored with the selection of Dre Moore:

The pick of Ryan Clady in round one filled an immediate need at left tackle, and Clady may end up being the best tackle in this class. This pick confuses me, though. I love replacing Kris Jenkins here, it's the move I would have made myself. Why Dre' Moore, though? Moore carries a solid third round grade from myself right now. He showed up out of shape for the Senior Bowl and was very unimpressive the entire week. Like most hyped defensive tackles, Moore is a boom or bust player to the extreme. His lack of production in big games is also another negative. Moore may be local, and he may be from Maryland too, but he's not a high second-round pick. Pat Sims of Auburn was the pick here, or perhaps Frank Okam. I know Carolina wants a pass rusher at tackle, so maybe wait until round three to make this selection and draft Chad Henne here.

Hey, if the Panthers could still get Moore in the 3rd round then I would be ecstatic. Matt obviously favors Pat Sims over Moore but most of the prospect rankings I've seen have Moore higher than Sims, including Mike Mayock whom I tend to trust a little more than anyone else (no offense to Matt). Matt has certainly been doing this longer than I and so if he says Pat Sims is better than Dre Moore then he could be right.

I'm not crazy about the thought of taking Chad Henne here. I like Henne but as I've posted many times here I don't think the Panthers are in the market for a QB. They may pull the trigger on Matt Ryan if he falls but in the end all that talk could be a smoke screen.

I hadn't really considered Frank Okam so I reviewed Matt's profile on Okam and he sounds pretty good. He is a definite possibility.

So Matt Miller flamed me pretty good and graded my pick a D. Let me know how you would grade it.
