Potential reaction from "Carolina Crazy V2" if we draft someone with the first overall pick?

I am not looking forward to all the pissed off people who bitch and moan that we didn't trade out of the first pick. And then those ignorant shmoes who have no clue behind the scenes blaming MH for not doing so.

People so casually suggest that we "should just trade down," almost like it's only up to the Panthers and not actually the trade partner initiating the trade.

you don't trade for the simple fact of trading... you trade when you can get something of more value than what you have, which at this point does not seem to be offered to Carolina. It takes at least 2 teams to make a trade happen and with the Panthers being the only willing team at this point, you can't fault them for not making one happen. If anything I commend them for not giving in (yet) to any short-sided trade offers. Whether or not this ship stays on course... we have a few weeks to find out.

If we actually had the ability to trade players with draft picks, I think it would be very viable to trade down.

In this instance, though, I don't see it. The Panthers would basically be asking for a swap of 1st round picks and a 2nd from a team wanting to move up a few spots. I don't see any other team with that big of a hunger to move up that they'd give up their second round for it.

    • Not totally inaccurate, haha Except that kid wasn't as excited as I was.  I was yelling louder, and more, and running around the room in circles until I almost passed out from exhausting and was trying to catch my breath for a good 10 minutes because I'm way too old to be doing that, LOLOL Oh, and I tweaked a muscle in my shoulder from all the fist pumping I was doing too. For as awesome as that pick was for me, it really screwed me up for a few days between my shoulder and lost voice (Wrexham securing back-to-back-to-back promotions Saturday afternoon contributed to that though too).
    • Getting Pierce jr isn’t forfeiting the pick they just had 2 1sts this year.
    • Full disclosure and the real reason.... I'll be seeing my Nephew in basically one month from today, and while I've gotten him stuff from my other teams the past year, I hadn't been willing to saddle him with Panthers stuff yet, that's now changed lol. So if the jersey would get to me before I see him, I'd get that and him his first Panthers onesie/shirt so I can get a picture of us together in them. If it wouldn't get to me by then, I'd just wait to get the one I prefer.  So yea, my rush is really just about trying to get a picture of myself in it with my Nephew in Panthers gear too.
