Would you stay up at draft night

If it's just to see what the Panthers do, I'd probably say no, but if you're interested in seeing what goes down in the draft as a whole, I'd say yes. I find the whole draft process pretty interesting, not just what the Panthers do, so I'd stay up and watch it regardless.

I little draft tidbit for all of you...

Last year I was in an airport during the draft... and I was boarding a plane bound for Italy (10 hr flight) right as the Panthers used their 1st pick... I sat down on the plane and got a call from a friend that we had picked Stewart.

Admittedly I was all about getting an OT... and the pick of a RB when we had Deangelo was perplexing...

It was some 20-30 hours later before I was able to see that we traded back into the 1st round and got Otah... (which I was ecstatic about!)

The point is that would prolly have been a pretty exciting thing to watch... and the draft in itself is when you get to see more NFL action (in regards to trades) than any other time.

So yeah, I'd stay up and watch... but I'm a fanatic.. a real nutjob when it comes to watching the Panthers.

I was dancing around the room when I saw that Eagles graphic transform to a Panthers graphic, because I knew exactly who they were going to get.

I was brought down a little later when I found out what they had given up, but I was cheering like they had just scored a TD.

Even though we don't have a 1st this year, it actually might end up being even more entertaining. I know I'm going to be watching every pick waiting to see that Panthers logo pop up and hear JP is traded.

i would to..the only guy i have seen the panthers haveing strong interest in..thats going in the first is larry enlish..but i rather get 2nds

I like some of the tackles and Moreno (absolutely no need), and Maclin and Pettigrew. Other than that, there's not much I want in the first that can't be had in the 2nd.

I have an eye for the top 3 QB's but they'll go too high.

      Ticket Prices

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
