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?

    • I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs
    • I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6
    • Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
