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.

    • No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad 
    • I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle. 
    • Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
