A Friendly Reminder This Draft Day...

Recommended Posts

It's officially draft day in Panther nation, and everyone is deliberating who our first round pick will possibly be, and what pick we'll get it from. With rumors flying around, everyone is in a frenzy trying to guess and predict how things will lay out.

As such, I thought it would be best for me to educate the masses on the three golden principles of drafting under the Gettleman era in this post. These events will always occur no matter what.

Such will always be the case:

  1. The Panthers will draft a position we're already strong on, and many people will be freaking out over how worthless it is.
  2. The Panthers will draft someone you'd think is a reach but turns out to be a stud.
  3. No one will fall to 8. No one. Every available player will be taken before 8 and the Panthers will be forced to draft a DT/LB to replenish.

That is all. Good day to all.

If we draft a DT or LB in the first I'll go blind.

    • Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.
    • The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix had only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.
