What was the Panthers best draft class?

I gotta go 07 right now, we got two perennial pro bowlers/all pros, one player on the cusp of that level, and two special teams aces. (Rosario and Wilson) And if Rosario can break out this year as a top flight TE that will definitely solidify 07 as one of the best NFL draft classes in recent memory.

The verdict is still out on 08. The only proven commodities we have so far are JStew who would be the starter on almost any other team in the league, Connor who we still haven't found a place for yet, but could be a very solid starting MLB, and Godfrey who is an average to good safety who is still improving. Then you have Otah, Barnidge, Hayden and Schwartz who are all still big ?s IMO.

The 2001 draft class, we had 3 potential HOFers, but all fell short of their potential. Morgan couldn't stay healthy, Jenkins couldn't stay out of the pantry and Smitty never had a consistent offense around him.

      If they lose the last three......

      I presented that scenario because this is a home game and we seemed to have improved in some capacity in that area as of recently. The problem with the possibility of sweeping the Bucs is this team has had a habit of quickly falling victim to momentum shifts. The Bucs are coming off a bitter loss the same as the Panthers but the Bucs have a much better proven track record this time of year and they have performed when the pressure is on unlike our Panthers. We have a shot against the Seahawks here in BOA but that is a matchup that could quickly get out of hand because they are a well coached team and that goes back to the momentum shifts I mentioned. I just don't see this team beating the Bucs in their stadium to close the season. Tall order to say the least.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      I’d give it another year for Sanders and Evans, I don’t much care what you do with Tremble’s spot. Let him have another year or maybe replace him. Haven’t looked at his contract so that may be the determining factor.

      Following the crazy up down pattern we finish 9-8 with an improbable sweep of TB, and lay an egg in the home playoff game.  I don’t know if I can sign on to sweeping TB but I suppose it’s possible, they aren’t really that good this year.    ps I can buy beating TB Sunday and losing to Seattle.  Then it just gets to can you fluke one game. Any given Sunday. So we’ll see.
