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.

      Panthers decision to pass on Walker

      By MHS831 · Posted

      there seems to be a change or two in his personnel preferences.  For example, the safeties.  Another example:  the smallish NTs are out and 330 is back!

      This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.

      Joe Person: Panthers really like Mason Graham and Jalon Walker

      I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops.
