  1. https://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/nfl_teams_that_have_made_three_or_more_first_round_picks_in_one_draft/s1__30198380#slide_1

     

    "In Jon Gruden's first year back in power in Oakland, the Raiders traded Khalil Mack and Amari Cooper for picks that landed in the 20s. Oakland began by taking Clemson defensive end Clelin Ferrell   at No. 4 overall, which surprised given Ferrell's mid-Round 1 grades. The first leg of the Mack haul turned into Josh Jacobs at No. 24. Jacobs' 1,150 rushing yards (in 13 games) set a Raider rookie record. The Cooper trade brought safety Johnathan Abram at No. 27. Abram starred on "Hard Knocks" but missed 15 games as a rookie. He remains a key part of the franchise's future in Las Vegas."

     

    So this is close to what you guys want to do.  Trade Khalil Mack and Amari Cooper for Clelin Ferrell, Josh Jacobs, and Johnatan Abram.  

    But tell me again about how valuable those picks are over established players.

    From the article

    "But the reality is that most draft picks don’t work out. Whether they’re busts, didn’t live up to their draft position, had injury or off-field issues, didn’t do much to move the dial, or never played much, most draft picks turn out to be some level of disappointment, or don’t make much of a difference in the team’s success."

    You sound angry. You sound hateful. You sound like a person who thinks there is only one way to fan. 
    There isn’t. Some people want to lose because of draft position, which this year actually make sense, and there are people who would like to win and make the playoffs. 
    Neither are wrong. 
    So if the Panthers wake the playoffs like you want enjoy it. But don’t gatekeep other fan. 
    That is just as bad. 

    Again, not angry in the least. 

    I will leave you with this article I remember reading years ago.

    Grow up man. You sound pathetically angry for some reason. Breath and realize you are taking this too seriously. 
    You sound like the miserable prick right now. 
    Log off the internet and realize that none of this game for children we enjoy as adults is worth anything and if it disappeared society would neither gain nor lose anything of value. 
     

    LOL

    I am not angry at all. 

     I'm taking it too seriously? Some of y'all actually get mad when the Panthers win because it screws up draft position.

  5. The forum is slow because you whiners don't have as much to bitch about now since Rhule has been fired and also the team has played a lot better the last couple of weeks. As far as being 2-6 they are still very much in the playoff hunt (because of the crappy NFC South)  as much as some of y'all hate it.  Keep hoping for losses and a DrAfT pICk  while I hope for wins and a playoff berth.

    I’m ready to change the mascot. Maybe even burn the stadium to the ground and build a new one. This team needs a complete enema
