Carolina Panthers

Best pick: Fifth-round corner Zack Sanchez is a perfect player for their zone schemes. He was a ball hawk at Oklahoma. Questionable move: Using their first-round pick on defensive tackle Vernon Butler. That is a position of strength for this team. I know Dave Gettleman doesn't draft for need, but this is still strange. Third-day gem: It's Sanchez. I really like his game. Oh, he was one of two third-day picks. Analysis: It's hard to argue against Gettleman since he has had success, but I didn't like this draft at all. Butler is a good player, but he comes at a position where they are stacked. They took some risks with some of their other picks. I know questioning Gettleman can come back to make me look bad, but I will here again. Grade: C-

LOL.  It's getting to be a fun game.  I think G'man & Prisco both enjoy it at this point.  Long may Dave win this yearly battle!

Gman said it best at his end of draft presser.  Their boards are based on value as panther players and not generically as football players.  Seeing he excels at this it's really gman vs like-minded drafters in similar teams (Seattle being the primary example).  Gman can't worry about what Mel thinks who will be taken where.

Prisco embarrases himself well enough without DG's help. He is a lazy "expert" whose analysis comes from conjecture on Twitter. His only true area of expertise is JAX because he is a homer fan of theirs.

Stacked with what? Behind the starters we've got balsa wood, not oak. 

I don't expect any of the so called experts to give Gman a good grade for this draft, but you don't rate a draft on next day opinions. You rate it down the road and by on the field results. 

Can you imagine the results we'd get if they drafted in order to get good grades from the network nitwits? 'We should probably pass on this guy. Prisco might not approve'.

I stopped listening to anything the experts say about the draft after hearing them praise us for getting the most NFL ready QB in the draft a few years ago.  That guys name was Jimmy Clausen and we all know how that turned out.

Well my twitter work on Thursday paid off

Behind our starters we have two more guys that would be starters on probably more than half the teams in the league.  We have 5 legit starter DTs now.

edit: not disagreeing with anything else you said, just that notion that we're not stacked at DT.

Were you hitting him with the "do you really think you know more about NFL talent than Dave Gettleman" angle, Panthro?

This guy is such a putz.

I kept asking him to give us Cs and Ds then hated on  Jacksonville

[greghardy'sAK-47]

if he gave us an A+ i would be super worried.

Prisco is a goof

Gettleman and Rivera have developed an identity for this team and now they draft to fit that mold. A lot of other teams draft differently because they have to. They don't have a solid design for their overall team or are at the dire beckoned call of an meddling ownership. Those teams are perennial losers or are middle of the pack teams that never seem to quite make it because they always feel they are just one player shy...

New England's drafts didn't make sense for a while, now they just look at the picks and say, "Belichik knows what he's doing." Luckily, so does DG.
