PUZZLE #285: Drop Tower 7

PUZZLE #285
DROP TOWER 7

Starting with an 8-letter word on top of the "tower", drop one letter and rearrange the rest to form a 7-letter word. Continue this process until only a 2-letter word remains. Since the tower is completely blank, use the randomly-ordered clues to figure out the words that go in each row.

Once the grid is completely filled in, look inside it for this week's FINAL ANSWER: a six-letter word that can be read going down and in a straight diagonal line.


CLUES
* Change, as the Constitution
* Father of Rod and Todd Flanders in The Simpsons
* Great _____ (Marmaduke's breed)
* Largest moon of Jupiter (and the entire Solar System)
* Postal abbr. for "The First State"
* Subtitle of the highest-grossing Avengers movie
* Take down a peg

Once you think you know what the FINAL ANSWER is, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or get a hint from me in exchange for a "hint star", more details for that are on the sidebar to the right) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for two versions you can print out: a .PNG and a link to a .PDF!
