The Carolina Panthers select Brian Burns - Defensive End - FSU

[Paa Langfart]

We need a pass rush.  Between this guy and Bruce Irvin we have one.

[Mvp2014]

hell yeah.  if he can bulk up we got a star

[Pantha-kun]

great pick. Proven pass rusher with production. He has plenty of time to put on a little weight. 

Dont forget CMC was a pretty controversial pick b/c a lot of panther fans thought he was too much of a lightweight, too finess, could not take punishment, etc.

Damn...but I thought no one was gonna be available at 16!!! Imagine if we tanked the last game...Sean Payton must be laughing at us so hard right now.

Ed Oliver was considered the potential #1 overall pick for much of the season and he went #9, so might wanna pause on the gloating for the moment.

So is the general consensus happy or not about this pick? I know nothing about him. Seems a good 3-4 pick?

The Panthers really liked Burns. 

Sweat was not an option

Please stop with this. Waaaaaay too reminiscent of the chatter after we traded a future #1 for Spinderella who will be coaching Burns.

Made this as an unemployed graphic designer lol. I was having aspirations of making a whole booklet but was too lazy. Luckily the only one I made was our first round pick. This is just an aggregation of all the scouting information I could find throughout the internet. Good Luck to Brian Burns!

His naturally small frame worries me a lot. Don’t feel too great about this pick. Hopefully I’m wrong

If I understand Igo correctly, doesn't sound like it.

Would've preferred Sweat but I'm not mad. I was terrified we were gonna take Dillard and I think that guy's a bust waiting to happen.

Same!

[DamnItJake!]

Sweet!! Hopefully he doesn’t follow the Kelvin Benjamin diet/work ethnic

I would have liked an OT too guys but just maybe the FO finally realized they need to play Moton’s ass at LT after he did nothing but play well there. 

You can’t always assume a guy is going to get hurt and be done for the year. Williams and Moton are more than solid players. That said I’m sure we address o-line in the second round.
