What would you have done...

if you called all the shots (other than trading up or down) at the draft for any team? like if you had control over the panthers, who would you have picked at #48 and the rest of the draft? if the draft board had fallen like it did? after the draft, I looked at what some teams should have done in the draft, like the Jaguars should've taken The Golden Calf of Bristol, or the Bills should've take Jimmy Clausen. this is just something kind of fun to do to pass time in the offseason. here is what I would've done if I had control of the Panthers picks...not trades...

2(48)-Golden Tate-WR-Notre Dame

3(78)-Everson Griffen-DE-USC

3(89)-Cam Thomas-DT-North Carolina

4(124)-Eric Norwood-LB-South Carolina

6(175)-Dezmon Briscoe-WR-Kansas

6(198)-Tony Pike-QB-Cincinatti

6(202)-Myron Rolle-SS-Florida State

6(204)-Donovan Warren-CB-Michigan

7(223)-Selvish Capers-OT/OG-West Virginia

7(249)-Brandon Banks-WR/KR-Kansas State

to me, this draft would've gotten at least an A, maybe an A+ draft grade.

I think your draft is more 'certain' than the Panthers draft this year, and I would not have been disappointed had this happened. However, I think your draft has a ceiling of about a B+ when it is all said and done, while the Panthers draft has the potential of being an A+. Fox and company needed a big draft to keep their jobs. They are definitely swinging for the fences.

as much as I cursed at the tv while watching the draft I have come to really appreciate our draft as it is, if clausen is as good as people say he is then he is a good fit behind moore, because who else was better? Cantwell?? im happy with r draft, I think we got steals with norwood and hardy, but I still say we could gotten edwards later in the draft but they must have heard something about someone going after him.

    • First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????
    • I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field. 
    • Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
