I was bored so i started looking at the panthers draft classes and when i got to the 2008 draft i couldnt belive how good it was out of 9 picks there could be 6 starters.

1 rd 13th pick Jonathan Stewart starter

1 rd 19th pick Jeff Otah starter

3 rd 4th pick Charles Godfey starter

3 rd 11th pick Dan Connor starter

5 rd 6th pick Gary Barnidge could be a starter

6 rd 15th pick Nick Hayden

7 rd 14th pick Hilee Taylor

7 rd 34th pick Geoff Schwartz maybe a starter

7 rd 43 pick Mackenzy Bernadeau maybe a starter

So GOOD JOB front office!

Looks like there's only 3 starters on there to me...Dan Connor has never started a game and isn't a lock to start this season, either...

Your right but i put starter there im pretty sure he will start this year

as a whole really good draft. we nailed both 1st round picks. i think we nailed the 3rd round. Gary Barnidge should be starting i still think hes the best of the 3 TEs. and 2 all time steals in the 7 round imo. if not for Hayden id give it an A+, so A-

I could care about Hayden. There are no drafts where there isn't at least one goof. To me the biggest sin was losing a 2nd and 4th rounder while taking a RB with the 13th pick.

RB is one of the lowest value positions in the NFL in the first place, and that was an especially deep draft in RB's and OT's. It turned out OK for us, but that trade makes it a B+ in my mind.

They fell too much in love with Stewart.

      Trade Deadline Talk

      You guys are just going to have to accept the fact that Dan Morgan is a mid GM best case scenario currently. I used to have people get very belligerent over defending Scott Fitterer too. And that's not hyperbole. People used to go to bat for that guy like he was blood related. We have a truckload invested in the OL and what do we have to show for it? The whole unit is already banged up including one of our big signings. Even without all that the group has largely take a step back from last year in pass protection. Then you get to the QB room and there's only two conclusions you can make about Dan Morgan. Either he deliberately ignored it two years in a row on his own accord or he took orders from Tepper to do so. Either scenario says he's not fit to be an NFL GM.

      Is Canales digging his own grave?

      Frank, ceding control of the defense in no way verifies that Tepper told Canales to bench Young.    It certainly buttresses the idea that Canales would need permission to bench him but that is as far as you can take it.    After that it is pure speculation and it doesn’t make sense.

      Uhh, okay yes that happened. I didn’t like the pick either I am a 3rd or later RB guy. Always. Actually hated the CMC pick too. Hated the Stewart pick.  No one wants to talk about trading the #39 in that draft and what he did with that.  Got #52, #155, and the Rams 2025 2nd to boot.   The 52 and 155 plus our 142 5th rounder to go up for a Brooks Everyone wants to forget about the 2025 2nd for that Rams trade  which was used to move up for Scourton.  That Rams trade down was a great deal for us.
