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.

      Known Prospect Meetings with Panthers

      Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds.

      Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
