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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
