100% Clueless

Furthermore....for you idiots that still don't get it...

THE PANTHERS WANT TO TRADE OUT OF THE #1 PICK. THAT IS THEIR BEST OPTION, BUT IF THEY CAN'T THEN THEY MUST KNOW ALL THE DETAILS OF THE TOP 5 PICKS SO THEY CAN MAKE A SELECTION.

That is all. Smokescreen lesson #132589 over.

You are going to need an animated gif to make them understand.

"some people have said" is code used for when 'journalists' want to interject shock and awe that has no basis or source.

The word "smokescreen" is a word idiots use when they are trying to explain how businessmen conduct themselves when they are surveying potential assets for acquisition.

Ok, I really need to know why would we need a "smokescreen", we got first pick locked in provided there will be a season.

Fug 'em, let the other teams guess or go into it brazen ballsy with the "we got first pick, if you want it, it will cost you dearly."

Ok that is the one thing that gets me. Richardson could come out right now and say 'I am taking newton' and there isn't a fuging thing anyone can do about it. now from picks 2 on down to 32 its different

Smitty will be a Charger next season anyways so who cares if he sells his house?

Richardson has abosolutely nothing to gain by announcing who he intedns to pick.

No matter what you call it, the silence and indications that we will possibly take up to 5-6 differenct players at #1 only increases the value of a trade (if that is what we intend to do).

Even if we have no intention of trading, a team could make us an offer we can't refuse.

What is with all this smoke screen nonsense.

The Panthers are bringing in everyone they think they could see spending the #1 pick on.

I think the Panthers know everyone is thinking they will draft Newton, and I think they are just about sold on the kid. But to not bring in anyone else or keep talking to other players would be the wrong move. So yes, obviously the Panthers will bring in other players, regardless of if they are sold on Newton or not.

And who knows? You have to do your damn homework on these players, because anything can happen. Hell, what if the Panthers got a ridiculous trade offer come at them on draft day? Better know who else you can get.

All I know, the thought of another year of Moore, Clausen, well...I just can't do it.

Driving from Raleigh to Charlotte to watch a team that can't get a first down passing is just mind boggling to me now.
