Are Panthers building WR through the draft?

Hurfox says we are building through the draft.

Put the WR draft thing into perspective: Since Hurfox arrived in 2002 or so, how many WRs have we drafted that have been effective contributors?

Hint: Smith and Moose were already on the roster.

Here they are: Walter Young, Keary Colbert, Drew Carter, Dwayne Jarrett, Ryne Robinson, Brandon Lafell, Armanti Edwards, David Gettis.

Of this bunch, Gettis may emerge to be the best. He was an afterthought, a 6th rounder. If you don't shop free agency and your track record through the draft is terrible, the result is what it is.

Edwards, Gettis and Lafell are in the fourth game of their first season. No way to judge them yet.

Walter Young was a seventh round pick , Drew Carter a fifth.

Ryne Robinson was doing fine till he had that devestating injury.

Colbert and Jarret are the only WR's we truly tried on that failed. And even then Colbert obviously had talent and proved it, so Im hestiant to say they failed at that. But he did.

The Panthers have drafted 1 WR in the 1st round and he's in jail. Marshall is gone along with Brayton and Davis. DT, DE, OL and CB are priority!

Davis isn't going anywhere.

We won't draft WR in the first round.

This isn't a upcoming draft thread, back on topic.

Agree we've only invested two real picks in WR's and neither has worked out. It's actually a very tough position to draft.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
