Mac Attack... 610am... Listen to our potential #1 pick

[SCP]

damn , I have to listen to Mac interview him....

[sharkman]

what, he won the Lombardi this year? That is what he said, right?

[Murph]

Please trade down Panthers

Please trade down Panthers

Please trade down Panthers

He could be a game changing DT for us...but this just isn't a very good draft at the top. It's a very deep draft, but not a lot of bona fide top 5 guys.

The idea of trading down reminds me of people selling furniture on craigslist: "I hate this abused, smelly, 3 decades old out-of-style couch that nobody likes. I bet I could get $200 for it."

[Carolina Husker]

We're not trading down. We're drafting Fairley. It makes sense.

[CatMan72]

Listened to the interview, nothing remarkable - said all the things you'd expect him to say about liking Charlotte, the Panthers, etc...

Was somewhat difficult to understand him, but we don't need him for his public speaking ability.

He wants Panthers fans to follow him on twitter, he's going to start having lots of conversations about the Panthers, his twitter account is "nick_fairley251"

Fairley is a one trick pony, but the one trick he has is extremely good. That said, you have to be an all-around great prospect to be the #1 overall pick. Fairley does not warrant that.

i love people who think trading down is just some magical lever they can pull to drenched in 2nd round picks like slime from you can't do that on television.

Right, in order to trade down you would have to find a team that has absolutely fallen in love with a particular prospect and I don't think there are any prospects in this draft that teams have fallen in love with to the point that they would spend the currency it took to move to # 1.

[PantherBrew]

The question is, whats the least we will take to move down?

[Jangler]

We have needed a DT for what 3 years? Now we want to pass up on a good one? :confused:

Who says I want a 2nd? Tell Buffalo at #3 we will switch with them plus their 3rd this year and 3rd next year.

Yeah, it's small compensation compared to other prior trades involving the #1 pick but it is the weakest draft since 2005 and with no CBA in place (yeah, I don't it will happen in the next 3 months) that pick just aint worth as much.
