Time to go on record with your intial opinions on this draft class.. Drafts usually take 3 years to assess but we can still like or not like a pick early... So let's go..

1st. ..pick LOVE BROWN...My guy day 1. 

2nd .. pick.. Okay with it wanted a CB but can understand building the Dline up again.. Like Motas so nothing to complain about here..

2nd pick part 2.  . Love the pick the player and the trade was solid.. Chinn is a beast with super athletic ability.. Can't wait to see him being used like a bigger version of Honey badger..

4th ... Love the pick .  Pride was one of my guys as well..

5th ... Don't know alot about Robinson and I didn't really think we needed another safety.. So I'm ...meh... on this pick..

6th ... I knew Rhule would get one of his guys .. I wanted the other 2 Baylor boys.. Roy is another whatever pick for me..

7th .  Dont know poo about Stanley.. Would have double dipped CB earlier not Safety .. Could have gotten a developmental Olinemen.. Another whatever pick..

So in retrospect loved or liked 4 out of the 7 players .. 4 look like day 1 contributors so I really like the draft and won't poo on Hurney later if the player don't workout...

Solid AF tbh!

 

Defense was HORRIBLE last year even with Luke.

 

This is what Rhule talked about. Getting great coaches and building through the draft. Well, we’re likely going to have on of the youngest defenses in the League I’d venture to say.

 

Now we get to see if these coaches can coach them up. Plenty of competition in camp if there’s even a camp or a season for that matter.

 

I give this draft an A+ based off need and how even the most casual of fans knew that we needed to restructure/rebuild the entire defense.

 

i have nothing but praise at this point, but we have to see how these guys all work out.

 

Definitely going to watch this season now, and prior to the draft, I was resigned to not buying the NFL Sunday Ticket. This draft has changed my mind.

Robinson was one of my favorite picks. I was a big XFL guy, and he shined in St. Louis. Very happy we picked him.

It's hard to "shine" around a ton of Veteran players in a league, when you're the youngest. He did so. I'm hoping he becomes a starter quick.

Panthers Depth Chart was so trash on defense heading into the Draft, it was to the point, if they didn't Draft all Defense it would've been a surprise. 

This is a 2-3 year process. I'm hopeful for a TL Drafting next year, and skies the limit after that.

No complaints! This draft fit hand-in-glove with the pre-draft moves in free agency! Free agency was more about Band-Aids with a little upside that may stick depending upon what happens, but the draft was all about building the team for the long term. 

I can't wait to see what transpires with the remainder of free agency and how all the puzzle pieces will fit for the bigger picture of 2020 (and that includes the UDFAs)!

I'm with you.  It's a really good start to building the defense.  Next year will go a long way to establishing the foundation of the team.  These new guys will have a year of nfl experience under their belt which the desperately need.  Dare I say my optimism meter just moved a bit.

I'm really high on Robinson. He and Kyle Dugger were my favorite safety prospects in this draft.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
