Took a look back at the original Draft Day trade that netted Greg Little just to see how it shook out...

The Panthers obtained the #37 pick that was used to draft Little by trading the #47 and #77 picks to the Seattle Seahawks.

With the 47th pick, the Seahawks took defensive back Marquise Blair. Looked him up and reports are that he's having a good camp after being lost to injury last year. Seattle apparently plans to have him as their starting nickel corner.

The Seahawks didn't stand pat with the #77 pick though. They wound up trading it along with their fourth rounder (#118) to the Patriots for pick #64.

Then with the 64th pick, the Seahawks selected wide receiver DK Metcalf.

A little bit thereafter, the Patriots spent the 77th pick on defensive end Chase Winovich.

Twenty three spots later, the Panthers selected quarterback Will Grier.

...

Probably also worth remembering that the Seattle front office at the time included current Panthers GM Scott Fitterer.

Hurney was the fugging worst. 

But…but… the Pom Pom club assured everyone that Hurney 2.0 would be different because he learned from his mistakes during his AM radio gig. While not getting a phone call from any other team. The entire time. Who could have predicted this outcome?

I think Dave was just Hurney with a worse personality. Look at how horrible the Giants are. Ironically Brandon Beane was the best GM in our organization but JR was so horrible he overlooked him for years. Oh well its history now.

      NFL Free Agency

      Rico is 0%. I think we would really like to have Mays back but we have a value in mind and aren't willing to overspend. I think someone probably will so I think the odds are pretty low but not zero.

      Panthers give Ashawn Robinson permission to seek trade

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though.

      13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
