Looking back at the top draft picks we’ve had in the last 15 years or so, who did you want with that selection? 

I remember the guy I wanted with each top pick since 2005. Sometimes it was better than Hurney. Sometimes it was what Hurney did, and sometimes it was worse. 

2005: Aaron Rodgers
2006: LenDale White
2007: Brandon Meriweather
2008: Jonathan Stewart
2009: Mohamed Massaquoi
2010: Jimmy Clausen
2011: Cam Newton
2012: Luke Kuechly
2013: Tyler Eifert
2014: Kelvin Benjamin
2015: Philip Dorsett (really wanted Humphries but he went one spot before)
2016: Myles Jack
2017: Christian McCaffrey
2018: D.J. Moore 
2019: Brian Burns

As you can see, we’ve often picked the guy I wanted. Sometimes, that was ingenious. Other times, it was stupid.

Until late February of 2011, I wanted Nick Fairley No. 1. I thought that dude was going to be an absolute game-changer at DT.

I also really wanted to get Mardy Gilyard in 2010. Thought he'd be a star.

If we got Rodgers in 2005, there would be no Clausen or Newton in Carolina.   That was your best one.

I can't remember what I ate yesterday.

      Ekwonu doesn’t get dog walked under 2 minutes in the 4th, we drive, kick a FG and win

      Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan

      IMO, getting rid of Bryce will just reveal how bad Canales is. I would prefer getting rid of Canales so we can also get rid of Bryce. I view them as intrinsically linked at this point.

      The season is over, and we're going to get clowned on by Mayfield and Darnold before it's over.

      I don't disagree, but honestly, this season has been better than I thought it would be.  At the onset, I think I voted that we'd win 3-4 games (or whatever the stratification was on that poll), and here we are with 7 wins and potential for more.  We're a sack hair from being able to sneak into the playoffs - yes, yes nfc south nonsense but still this season has exceeded my expectations.  If we can somehow move on from Bryce and find some consistency, I believe the Panthers are trending upwards (overall).
