Nice work.  This shows how we've dramatically gone for a "youth movement"

Of 27 draftees from 2001 - 2010 who are still in the league, only 4 are still with the Panthers.

That's not too surprising given a new GM and a new Head Coach, AND given our Cap Hell.  But still WOW.  We ARE a young team!

Good List!!  Interesting to see where our picks are.  I completely had forgotten about Joe Berger... was 6th round pick in 2005.  Cut and then signed to PS- never played in an actual game.

Still sucks Mathis never developed here... I remember the coaches were raving about his strength and everyone thought he was going to become a great guard.  Which he did, just not here...  Would be shocked if he's not picked up- thinking he is still wanting too much money right now

Only 3 of the players from the 2011 draft are still in the league. Man, was that draft HORRIBLE

Am I correct in remembering that the entire draft class was really weak and has a very low percentage of players still in the league?  I seem to recall reading that this summer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_NFL_draft

 

First 7 draft picks of that draft are pro bowlers, as are 8 of the first 10 with JJ Watt being picked at #11.

The first round was something special, but it looks pretty mediocre after the first round truth be told. Couple of studs here and there but nothing like the first round...

Having said that, the 2011 draft produced top 5 players at a number of different positions:

Richard Sherman

Patrick Peterson

Justin Houston

JJ Watt

Julius Thomas

Demarco Murray

Randall Cobb

AJ Green

Julio Jones

Robert Quinn

Vonn Miller

Marcell Dareus

And of course, Our very own Cam Newton even though he isn't a top 5 QB.

That's just the best of the best, but that's still quite a few blue chip players out of one draft

[never mind.  something went wrong with my brain/]

Thanks for that Cracka.  Nice info.

Turns out 2011 is the 5th best draft class in the past 25 years

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000495447/article/five-best-nfl-draft-classes-of-last-25-years

I'm not sure what year I confused it with.  Or maybe I was just thinking of the fact that it wasn't a good draft for the Panthers in terms of long-term impact players.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.

      Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.

      It is goofy how some people hate Bryce so much that they're flat out lying to try and remain entitled to their pessimism. It's insanity. Most fans are realists and eagerly awaiting the season to see if we get pre- or post-benching Bryce to start the season and how much he is able to do with some young and developing weapons. Many of us understand that these young guys are going to have growing pains on the job as well as the new defense, but the fans with all of the excuses for why Bryce can't be successful are pounding the no excuses drum. Personally, I'd prefer the Keep Pounding drum.
