    Pretty wild for 6 QBs to go in the top 12 then zero from picks 13 though 100.

    Definitely reinforces the notion that there was a huge drop off after the first six. I just thought we'd see a decent drop off after the first four. I figured Nix and Penix would go somewhere between the late first and the end of the second. Definitely didn't see either in the top half of the first.

    Definitely won't see that in the 2025 QB draft.  I figured Nix would probably drop to round two, but when the Falcons nabbed Penix, Denver got REAL anxious.

    Interesting to note: We'll end up with a pick in every round this year and gained our missing 2nd back next year.  Notable Bryce-trade capital was retrieved without losing anything beyond.  Albeit, you can't recoup us landing the #1 overall pick, but it's still aight maneuvering.  

    The maneuvering didn't bother me as much as who we picked when actually did make a selection.  Yes, getting all our draft capital back (standard amount of picks) this draft and recouping our 2nd next year was nice.

    Not sure. He's a great LB but I think most teams felt the risk drafting him high was more than they were willing to pay. For the Steelers it was nothing unknown to them as they've had players with the same problem before. It worked out for them so they took a chance. I can't fault a team either way. It's all a gamble anyway. 

    Being both a Wolfpack and Steeler legend, I would have to think Cowher couldn't let Wilson fall past them again and pulled a little influence.  Maybe not, but I could totally see that being plausible.

    Hm. Right position but not the player I wanted lol. I’ll reserve judgement, don’t know anything about this guy.  

    Every...damn...pick so far.  Need a WR? Yup, but not Legette.  Need a RB?  Sure, the value is in the 3rd and 4th rounds, so we take one in the 2nd...naturally.  Need a futre ILB to replace Shaq?  Sure, but pass up the local kid that won every major defensive award he could on defense in college this past season for juiced-up project.

    That's my Panthers!!!! Sorry sh*ts.
