Just pull up the video of last year's. It'll probably say mostly the same stuff.

they didnt have the #1 pick last year... and the 'new' panthers so far this year seem to be more open to the media (though, thats still not saying much)

hoping for something big, expecting nothing

I know Jay Glazer and Lombardi recommended that if they were serious about Newton..they should announce something tuesday..to get the organization and the fans used to the idea..not that this would happen..just saying lol

the thing is they are still hoping someone calls.

i personally wouldn't mind them announcing it but that's not the Panthers style. Just won't happen.

I think they were just thinking paralysis by over analysis..that they might over think this thing if they wait til the last second to make up their mind.

I'm not expecting anything to be announced. I am just wondering if we had a press conference last year the week of the draft and what was said?

well they've talked more then they have in 10 years so they might of but probably didn't matter as much as when they have the first pick..

If they really are running a smokescreen, maybe they see this as the last chance to try to sell other teams on them taking Newton.

Following this line of thought, the reason they have run the Newton smokescreen is because they decided early on that he was the player other teams would be most likely to trade up for.

In any case, it will be a fun week for fans.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
