After looking at all of our first round picks again in the other thread, lets take a look and remember what Gilbert ultimately cost us.

 

We gave up our first round picks in 1999 and 2000. Well that 1999 pick ended up being 5th overall...The Skins traded this pick to the Saints for a fortune(Ricky Williams deal).

 

  • Pick #12 (Rd. 1) in the 1999 NFL Draft
  • Pick #71 (Rd. 3) in the 1999 NFL Draft
  • Pick #106 (Rd. 4) in the 1999 NFL Draft
  • Pick #144 (Rd. 5) in the 1999 NFL Draft
  • Pick #179 (Rd. 6) in the 1999 NFL Draft
  • Pick #218 (Rd. 7) in the 1999 NFL Draft
  • Pick #2 (Rd. 1) in the 2000 NFL Draft
  • Pick #64 (Rd. 3) in the 2000 NFL Draft

Then in 2000 we picked 12th overall.

 

So that totals 3 first rounders.

#12 overall in 1999

#2  overall in 2000 (via RW trade)

#12 overall in 2000 

plus the 2nd overall in round 2 in 2000

 

Washington ultimtatley traded up to 3 with San Fran, then SF also traded the #12 to the jets for picks 16 and 48.

 

If that wasn't bad enough we also made him the highest paid D-lineman in history at the time too.

I wouldn't change it though. I saw a documentary called "The Butterfly Effect" and it shows that going through time can be dangerous in ways we can't expect. Like we could change that and Cam Newton ends up getting blown up vandalizing a mailbox, or Luke Kuechly strangles himself in the womb. Dark stuff.

Who was GM at the time?

Don't think we had one. Dom Capers made personnel decisons that year( I think). Polian bolted to be the Colts President and we never really hired an actual GM that year. Seifert didnt come along until 99.

 

It was probably a joint decision between Capers and Jack Buhkofsky (director of pro personnel at the time).

      The Carolina Huddle

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Been here since middle school right when it started around 2003 after the charlotte.com one. Living outside of Carolina it was tough to find good Panthers content, news or analysis. And no one to talk to about it. This place gave me a lot though I don’t often post. In the later days, I particularly Loved PhillyB’s write ups. They were fire. Too bad I go let it go. I appreciate the hell out of @MHS831 @TheSpecialJuan @Jackie Lee and others who have been posting great content and keeping this place worth coming back to. Particularly during the offseason. Appreciate y’all!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By kass · Posted

      Nice explanation, but I was just messing with you. Thought that would be obvious. I dont have the energy to keep on trolling. Last season I compared our situation with Bryce as a potential Alex Smith, but what we should be looking for is our version of Mahomes. Some people will read that as one sentence, to me that single sentence is equivalent to a half A4 explanationf of the teams pathway forward.

      I dont know how much of his salary would come across and how much a trade would cost but I feel Kmet would be the sort of TE Canales and Morgan would like
