The Fearsome 4s


Recommended Posts

Here in Charlotte North Carolina we've grown to fear the 2nd round. We have a rich tradition of mediocrity and busts that would make Playboy blush.

 

Ryan Kalil, Richard Marshall, Deon Grant, Kris Jenkins, Mike Rucker, Mike Minter, and Muhsin Muhammad were all worthy of being our number 2s.

 

 

You could argue we did better in the 7th than the 4th with picks like Chad Cota, Kris Mangum, Lester Towns, Michael Gaines, Will Montgomery, Mackenzy Bernadeau, Geoff Schwartz, Captain Munnerlyn, and Robert McClain

 

So I present to you the fearsome 4s:

 

1995: Frank Garcia, this is starting well

1996: Noberto Davidds-Garrido, didn't he knock out Kerry Collins in a bar?

1997: Tarek Saleh, Sawho?

1998: Donald Hayes, one of my favorites that never amounted to anything

1999: Hannibal Navies, lasted 8 years in the NFL, best season in 2003 recorded 69 tackles

2000: Alvin McKinley. played 9 games for the Panthers

2001: Chris Weinke, lost 15 games his rookie season yet managed to hang around longer than Clausen

2002: Dante Wesley, Special teams lifer, fan favorite at times, nearly killed a man that signaled fair catch

2003: Colin Branch, spent three years in Carolina, spent zero years with the other 31 teams

2004: 4th traded away

2005: THE Stefan Lefors, this list should be called the Lefours

2006: Nate Salley, Wasn't he on the best damned sports show anywhere?

2007: Ryne Robinson, being Joe Adams before it was cool

2008: 4th Traded away

2009: Mike Goodson, Best known for building then occupying Rivera's Doghouse

2009:Tony Fiammetta, never made an impact, Jerry Jones scooped him up. Enough said.

2010: Eric Norwood, chosen 9 picks ahead of Kam Chancelor, 51 ahead of Greg Hardy, Currently starring for the Hamilton Tiger Cats

2011: Brandon Hogan, Never got his life together, wasted talent

2012: Frank Alexander, decent backup, spent time in the house that Mike built

2012: Joe Adams, lasted one year, best known for losing his job to Armanti Edwards

2013: Edmund Kugbilla, our next great hope in Lefourth round, may the 4th be with you Jabba

If I recall correctly, it was Muhsin Muhammad who decked Collins.

    • Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.
    • I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
