Round 2: The Carolina Panthers select DT Lee Hunter (Texas Tech)

[Shocker]

On the trade value the Panthers actually won it by 1 pt even giving up 40 spots.

Yeah. Swapping those late picks like that is how they get to those one point margins. It is a common and convenient thing. I mean I don’t worry about any of those picks outside the 4th really. Such long shots…

Don’t understand the trade at all. Felt like a Fitterer trade. And not picking Anthony Hill Jr, no good.

I feel like they may have panicked a little, but a swap to get your guy to move down 37 spots from the 5th to the 6th round is not that big of a deal considering their largely for developmental players anyway. I mean, you can be at least perturbed by it, but it's not a make-or-break type of deal.

As for drafting Anthony Hill, I'll say the same thing I said in regards to Thieneman and Freeling (albeit to a lesser degree/gap), you're gonna be hard pressed to find a whole lot of big boards that had Hill over Hunter. There's an argument that Hunter is our best pick right now. He was a good pick.

Hunter left auburn for ucf because he didn’t make the roster his freshman season and didn’t like the head coach. 

he left UCF for Texas tech because he didn’t like the coaches at UCF, and NIL money.

thats ominous.

He went to UCF because Gus Malzahn who recruited him to Auburn went there.

“The reason I chose to leave auburn because we got treated like we wasn’t good enough and like dogs.”
