I liked Cota. I think it was his contract offer from NO that I first heard of the poison pill. 

Yeah, I think it has to be either Cota or Grant. They are the only ones I can think of that had some success that may have been from the later rounds.

The best NFL draft pick ever at every slot from No. 1 to 262 - ESPN

ESPN just put out a list.  4 Panthers made the list.   3 are DBs.   1 is OL.  Unlimited pie for the first to guess 3 out of the 4 WITHOUT cheating!  I will know if you cheated because you will have gotten it right. 

 

No cheat, didn't even scroll past your post.

I got two clear ones- Captain Munnerlyn and Josh Norman

 

the next two are my best guesses

 

MIke Minter to round out the DBs

Ryan Kalil as the OLman

Upon rereading @CRA post. I'd like to change my OLman pick to will montgomery. 

I thought either Ryan, will, or hangman. 

Rethinking and still no cheating- Will Montgomery had a looong career for a 7th and started plenty for washington. 

I got to stick with the others.

Checked the Panthers all-time list- Robert McClain has to be the answer. Dang I missed that one.

He had a long career for 7th and that's the key to the whole game. 

I think up unto last year both Will Montgomery and Robert McClain were still playing. Robert even had had a try out like 10 years later for the Panthers. I finally remeber his name and seeing he played for like 6 teams, but the fact he was still playing. 

Almost had the 4 for 4!!!

Have not opened this or read any other posts.

OL:  Ryan Kalil (59)

DB:  Josh Norman  (143)

DB: Captain Munnerlyn (216)

DB: Mike Minter (56)

It was hard finding the DBs....

NO WAY!!! I did not cheat or read any posts and came up with the same 4.

Moton would have been a good pick and so would Travelle Wharton--it all depends on who else was selected that pick.  Hangartner was a good one that I never considered.  Montgomery is a great pick

And a third DB was taken with a pick we traded.... #14 Revis

Would have guessed Steve Smith in the 3rd but no WR.   

Can't fathom Taylor Moton in the 2nd as an OL but I don't have anyone else who could make that kind of list.

DB I got Josh Norman and no idea beyond that.  All the other DBs who were good were early rounders (Gamble, Minter, Horn, even Godfrey as a 3rd rounder)

Smith ran into a Will Shields problem. Lol

Haven’t looked at anything including comments. OL I’m assuming Ryan Kalil since I don’t know who else it would be. 3 DBs is interesting since we don’t have a great history of DBs. I’m guessing one is Josh Norman since he was drafted pretty late. I don’t remember when Gamble was drafted but I could see it being him if he was drafted 3rd round or later. And maybe Minter? 

[WUnderhill]

Or wait, is it just guys drafted by the Panthers but not necessarily long time Panthers? If so, Evan Mathis?

Pretty sure Gamble was early. Maybe even a late 1st rounder, but not into the later rounds.

Captain

Norman

Cota as the 3rd DB

No clue on the OL though.

Well, I got one right.
