Apparently the Panthers tried to trade up to 2 to draft Fournette

They are worried that smaller markets would get the best new players. -
We overthunk it. We had a need for big #1 WR. Our coach had Evans in Tampa. The draft was not a good value in the first with edge players, but I really think we got 2 steals in rounds 2 and 3. I think the second round talent at edge (since Pearce and Green seemed to have baggage) was pretty level. Common sense says you grab the Mike Evans-type WR and dip in at edge on day 2. We went after DTs pretty hard in free agency, and the draft was deep there--I think they did this because the plan was WR and Edge and maybe RB and (rather obviously) Safety. The key was making sure TMac was there because there were really no others like him. ---- I dont think Morgan was bad last year; just had some bad rookie GM luck. XL has upside, but was raw...I would not call him a bust yet--too many variables working against him. I think he will be a good #2. I think Coker will be our slot post AT, and I REALLY like the Horn pick. This seems to have been their plan if you consider free agency ---re-sign Horn and Jackson--Moehrig, Roseboom, Wharton, Brown III, Jones--If the focus was WR, RB, S, and Edge, Morgan hit a home run. -
I was having the same thoughts. You might need to get some help. 😀
