Panthers picking 8th overall in 2017 Draft, but remember this important disclaimer


Growl

Recommended Posts

The offseason is upon us and the time for all of you to offer up terrible opinions is ripe. Some of you have started early, I see.

One common opinion you'll see mentioned this offseason is the following:

Approximately 3500 aspiring NFL stars will be draft eligible this offseason, and the Carolina Panthers, coming off of like, the worst season, like ever, will be selecting 8th (this part is true)

Unfortunately however that is simply not high enough. Is there a player you like?

That's too bad. Because he is going to be gone before we pick. In fact, he is going to be long gone. They all are. 

All 3500 players will be long gone by the time the Panthers make the 8th overall selection, roughly an hour into draft night. 

Who knows by what mathematical tomfoolery this happens, but it simply is. Its an indisputable reality that all the players will be gone and we should probably still trade down anyways just to be safe.

    • I think where they would be picked if redrafted before both classes have played enough football to really tell.  Baker literally looked like a washout with us after Cleveland gave up on him, then turned world beater with the Rams, got a prove it deal with the Bucs and has looked awesome ever since. Asking where Ward would’ve went had he went in ‘24 is just stupid.  I’m no GM, but I wouldn’t have taken Williams #1 either.  I would’ve taken Joe Milton way higher than he went.  I think Shadeur should’ve been a first round pick this year.  Point being, opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.  It’s my opinion that Ward has that “something special.”  I get that feeling that he’ll be an even better pro than he was a collegiate QB because of whatever that quality is.  I think he’s gonna surprise a lot of people, especially being such an under appreciated first overall pick.
    • Where do we get our T-shirts and hats? Pretty sure this is the first championship ever in professional basketball or football in Charlotte!
    • Nice turnaround for Kon.  I’m still a little worried about his ability to create for himself and others, but it was SL.  Come regular season, he will playing a much different role and shots will be there for him.  He showed some reason for hope - and not just him, but the whole squad.  I suppose for the first time ever, we have drafted and acquired enough young talent that we actually not only competed for once, but won the whole thing in summer league.     Kon, Simpson, and Sims made all the difference.  Almost every year prior I felt we always struggled because we usually didn’t have a floor general/real PG to get us into offense.  This was such a breath of fresh air.  And look at us!  We finally are champions!😂
