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.

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

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.

    • Technically speaking, Fields has been a better QB than Bryce Young in the NFL.  I mean it’s bottom rung comparing by BY isn’t better.  Thats what I don’t get about the talk this week.  We don’t have a QB edge 
    • Might be different against a team with no legitimate pass catching options outside of their rookie TE though.  Their #1 WR tomorrow has 8 catches this season, next best WR receptions number this year is 4. If we can't defend that while Horn travels with their TE, then we have some serious problems.   Maybe we don't end up doing that in the end, but it's probably how I'd be scheming up the defense tomorrow when they have only 1 non RB pass catching option.
    • I fought sleep to stay awake just to watch that fumble on the goal line as we were going in for the go ahead score and said fug it, I'm going to bed. I've seen this movie before. I know how this ends. This bullshit of having California teams in conference with east coast teams is trash. That game probably didn't end until 2:30AM. Hell, it was 2AM at the time of the fumble and there was still 3+ minutes to play. In conference games being played into the 2AM hour for local audiences is terrible for the game. And the worst rule in football really does need fixed. Fumbling through the endzone or a fumble recovers by the D in the end zone should not result in a touch back and the ball on the 20. Fumbling through the endzone should not be a turnover. Fumbling out of bounds isn't a turnover anywhere else on the field. That should be the offense's ball on the one yard line. If the D recovers it in the endzone it should be the D's ball on the one yard line. Everyone knows this and everyone talks about it so just fix it already. If Cal was getting the ball at the goal line instead of out to the 20 I would've kept watching. That's a completely different scenario than the ball at the 20.
