DE Brown bears weight of Panthers draft gamble

That only makes the scrutiny more intense for rookie defensive end Everette Brown(notes). Because of him, the Panthers don’t have a first-round draft pick next spring.

“The move that they made during the draft was a big move,” Brown acknowledged this week.

Coming off a 12-4 season, the Panthers spent the offseason in a win-now mode. They returned all but one starter, then on draft day traded next year’s first-round pick to San Francisco for the 49ers’ second-round choice.

should have went after some FA's

Should have drafted a Rookie QB

Should have made that damn "Remember Arizona" banner

Should have signed a WR

Should have yanked Jake earlier in the Philly game

Should have not went into the year so thin at DT

Should have not counted on 21-22 returning to repeat

Should have let Peppers go so we would have been able to get depth

The should haves are always easy to spot when we suck...

Fox is a great "re-active" coach, not so much "pro-active" though.

Thats why its always "after the fact" with Fox....

True story. 2 years in a row the Panthers front office has dumped its 1st round picks. Thats the sign of a cheap organization that doesnt want to pay top dollar to a player it has to develop. I wouldnt be shocked if they traded this year's 1st rounder too. So much money on this team is tied up into 3-4 players, would it really surprise people if the front office is happy not to have any 1st round picks?

    • There probably isn’t an orthopedic surgery that has had more improvement in technique and outcomes over the last two decades than the acl repair. Because of its importance in pro sports and the sheer number that surgeons do there have been lots of opportunities to practice 1. Better techniques - arthroscopic v open surgery means people heal faster  2. More training - all sports med surgeons have tons of experience doing them 3. better imaging - later generations of mri are more sensitive  4. better therapy - PTs have gotten better at rehabbing them and the theories of rehab have improved a lot. No idea about brooks in particular tho, but I’d describe that overall situation as “not great”
    • If Freeling or either of the Utah OTs dropped to 19 I'd be more than happy honestly. Our OT situation isn't great with an aging Moton at RT and a mess of a situation at LT if Walker goes down at any point in time.  What I'm expecting the Panthers to do is probably draft another weapon like Sadiq or KC Conception. That's been their track record in drafting R1 thus far. None of the defensive talent projected to be around 19 stands out to me. Unless they just want to draft a LB early (Rodriguez,  CJ Allen, Anthony Hill, Jake Gollday).
