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?

    • You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful. 
    • Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.
    • On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
