Post Your Reaction if Hurney Screws Us.

So, it's becoming more and more obvious that our desired, number one goal is to trade down. However, it's also looking less and less likely that that will happen. So, I'm taking this particular thread and dedicating it completely to the idea of each poster posting his/her individual reaction if Hurney, in a fit of desperation, completely screws us by trading down-but getting next to nothing in return. For hypothetical's sake, let's say we swap 1st round picks with Washington, while they give us their 3rd.

You can post a picture, gif, or just random letters and words in all-caps. We've grown pretty used to stupid draft day moves here in Pantherland, so I figure we might as well prepare ourselves.

I'll start:

Just one more day, fellas..

I don't think it is our #1 goal. I think it is something we are willing to do but we are not going to just give it away. It will have to be a very good package in order for us to move down IMO.

There is a difference between wanting to trade down and being willing to trade down.

I think the opposite. I feel that drafting Cam Newton is in NO way "screwing us"... If we draft Cam, I think it's a sign from Hurney and Richardson that they are willing to take a chance to be great! This is a gamble, but it's one I really feel that we'll end up winning!

Now... we need to work on some sort of nickname for Cam...

I think he makes the pick. I will applaud if we trade down though and go cheap again. In the face of what happens at 6pm today Big Cat may make a statement that he is gonna go cheaper one way or another.

I would not be mad if we gave it away for next to nothing at all in light of the NFLPA antics.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
