Who's still going to be ok if we don't draft the guy you want?

I'd like Newton but would be ok if we choose someone else. Also, even though I think taking DT #1 in a deep class doesn't make that much sense, I would be content with it. I mean we are a 2-14 team. Anyone we pick would help. We can't be set back any further by any pick we choose when John Fox has already set us back. Can't go anywhere but up from here.

Meh as long as we don't reach for a guy who has a second round grade at number one overall I won't complain to much. I have faith that the coaching staff has done their homework and is ready to make the pick that benefits the team the most....

"With the first pick in the NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select Christian Ponder, QB, Florida State."

I don't believe the whole "reaching for a guy" thing people complain about. If a team wants a guy and believe that he will help the team out, that's all that should matter. The ones who create these charts to tell us whether we're reaching or not are just a bunch of talking heads anyway.

See above post.....no way you should draft a guy like Ponder number one overall when his stock is anywhere from 15-40. If you want that guy fine, trade down and pick up extra picks and get him or trade back up and get him if your scouting department has him as a franchise guy.....

This is exactly right.

I wouldn't mind taking Christian Ponder, but definitely no where near the #1 pick. If you want a player like that, that you know not many other teams have high on their board, trade down and get him + picks, or, package some picks and trade up.

Well i didn't mean that far of a reach...i think if it isn't a HUGE reach then we should be content with it because in the end what the coaches think trump what talking heads think.

    • Umm yeah. When did he get it done at the right time? I seem to remember a 4-6 finish and needing Atlanta to win our way into the playoffs but whatever.   
    • I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.
    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "
