Has there been a bigger Carolina miss in the NFL draft?

Amini just couldn't stay healthy. I don't really think you can blame the player for that   .

Biggest draft bust, taking into consideration what was spent to get them and what the panthers received, has to go to either Everette brown, armanti Edwards, or Eric Shelton. 

Everette brow was weird, had no position in the nfl, and didn't want to play. Eric Shelton got hit once in training camp after never really playing anyone at Louisville and said fug this. Armanti just didn't belong on the field.

Jason Peter instead of anyone else.  Same for Rae Carruth.

Disagree. Carruth was on his way to being a super star in the league. No way we could know he would have his gf killed.

Based on draft position, the trade up for Armanti was bad, but the pick it garnered was used on Ras-I Dowling and none of the players around the 3rd where we selected Armanti were of any consequence.

The trade of a future first to select Jeff Otah cost the Panthers a pick that could have been used on Hakeem Nicks and Patrick Chung among others. The Otah pick itself could have been used on Aqib Talib or Chris Johnson, but Hurney had already chosen Stew earlier that round.

The Everette Brown trade is hands down the worst based on lost draft capital. The Panthers could have selected Connor Barwin or LeSean McCoy and the next year's FIRST ROUNDER they gave up to move into that slot was used on Mike Iupati and could have been used on Maurkice Pouncey, Demaryius Thomas, Jermaine Gresham, Dez Bryant, or Devin McCourty.
