If the team passes on...

[Mr. Scot]

To be clear, I don't have to look any further back than last year for reference on this topic.

I hated the Clausen pick, but for the position more so than the player.

I wanted a receiver with the first pick, and wanted the team to get veteran insurance for Moore rather than a rookie. Also would have preferred we'd have hung on to Josh McCown. None of that happened.

I softened a little when Brandon LaFell was still available with our next pick, but when that first pick was announced I was shaking my head :nonod:

[SOJA]

trust that they've done their homework on whoever they pick

[jtnc]

Do you guys think that this pick will decide Hurney's future with the Panthers?

[Mr. Scot]

Hurney's? No.

Some members of the scouting department? Maybe.

No matter what we do I would be laughing manically. It'll be great to see the huddle implode either way :P. I get surprised on draft day but not angry. It's stupid to judge a pick before they play a single down in the nfl.

[Jackofalltrades]

I usually like to offer up question threads without giving my opinion first to avoid skewing the conversation (not all the time, but that's my preference).

But for me, my top pick right now is either Marcell Dareus or Patrick Peterson.

I don't want any quarterback, receiver, or defensive end.

If we take someone I don't want, I'll groan, but hope they're right and I'm wrong.

This fits me to a tee as well.

Get on board with reservations. I'm 100% confident that whomever our front office and coaching staff thinks is deserving of number one overall, will be a difference maker and make an impact sooner rather than later.

Hurney's? No.

Some members of the scouting department? Maybe.

If whoever we draft busts and the team struggles for then ext few years he may lose his job, but he's not on the hot seat yet... he's amassed a pretty good pool of talent to work from imo.

at this point i really dont give a fug who they pick. I trust they have put in the work and made the right choice

[Highlandfire]

...the player that you think should go number one - whomever that may be - and instead picks someone you don't want, will you:

- rant about it angrily

- question their intelligence and/or commitment to winning

- get on board with the pick immediately

- get on board, with reservations

Post your current choice, another choice you wouldn't want, and what you think you'll do if the pick goes in what you feel is the wrong direction.

I will support the draft pick to an extent. I am a team first guy, I don't get nearly as attached to players per say since Free agency started. They are here today, gone tomorrow.

If they draft a guy that I think was a stupid pick I won't be happy about it but I will attempt to support him.

If it's Newton I will pray.....a lot. Then proceed to punch my tv.

[YoungPanthers89]

i will laugh when we take bowers and the huddle divides by 0

[Darth Biscuit]

I want them to take Dareus, but I won't complain about who they pick. No point in it.

I know this, whatever they do this site will shut down and somebody will be pissed.

[crunkpanther]

Want: Dareus or Green

Do not want: Gabbert.

I'll be pretty pissed off if we pick Gabbert. I have no doubt Hurney and Rivera know a lot more than me about these guys, but it doesn't mean they can't be wrong and I can't be right. If they pick him, it'll feel to me like a desperation reach and I'll be pretty pessimistic about our future.

Of course I could end up being wrong, but I probably will be annoyed by it until then.
