The 2 people who voted no need to get back on the short bus and go back to the asylum.

Don't look, but we have 3 now!!

I guess if you go here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_NFL_Draft and do a little hindsight shuffle maybe we take Watt in the first and then take Kamara in the second before NO can get him??  It would be just as nice to have Kamara NOT on the Saints as it would to have him on the panthers.

But Hindsight is 20/20.  And the question wasn't if we could have done better, it's was CMC worth an 8th overall pick so I voted Yes.  I just hope Norv stays here to keep working with him even if we end up having some coaching changes after the season.

He is one of the player actually living up to his draft rank?   Were shaq and Butler worth their first round picks is a better question. 

If you draft a guy with the purpose of them being a backup it is impossible for them to live up to the pick.  Both Shaq and Butler were drafted to be backups.  Then they don’t develop.

CMC is a franchise offensive caliber talent.  He would have been worth it at pick #3.  Turned out a lot better than Fournette, which a lot of Huddlers sure had a hard-on for.

Who's the user here who was so irrationally hateful of him despite it being obvious after half a season that he was a great player?  I remember someone having such a vendetta against him

What we are witnessing come to fruition in terms of his versatility in our offense is exactly the reason so many fans here, myself included, wanted the Panthers to draft him. It took some growing pains in his rookie year, but clearly he was worth the pick, and he still has room for growth.

People like HornetsSting aren't fooling anyone when they try so hard to pit two of our best players against each other. Just let them play.

Link where you suggested the Panthers draft 22?
