O.K. listen for those freaking out (I DID AT FIRST TOO! I was like now I'll be waiting all over again NEXT YEAR!!!). I did some research and Mel Kiper projected him to go as early as #11 or #30...the Observer had him ranked #21 out of their top 100.

I thought we traded our second also but we still have that too!...so in essence we traded

A 1st rounder next year (which will hopefully be late)

for a potential #11 pick

and a fourth rounder this year...

plus we still have our second

Not to mention the kid's from North Carolina!!! Went to high school in Wilson...I really really like the pick (now well see about trading the #1)

I really think Meeks will do a fabulous job w/ developing Brown....Lots of "experts" say he's another Dwight Freeney, who was a Ron Meeks project...

Very Exciting...HE is the ONE person I wanted, and I just can't believe we landed him....

for next years first he better be the mother fuging poo

like the player hate what we gave up:mad:

[KillerKat]

Im excited about the pick, but don't like what we gave up.

[Sam Mills Fan]

I love the pick.

You guys aren't too bright if you're complaining about what we gave up. It was as if we had a first-rounder this year and used it on Brown. He's that kind of value and we just used our first from next season.

It fills a need we're desperate at. Great move.

Based on value, the trade was even. A high 2nd and 4th for a generic 1st next year could be seen as the Panthers getting the better end of that deal.

As for the player selected, I wasn't a fan of Brown because I'm not a fan of the smaller DE BUT Meeks likes the smaller DE's. Johnson and Brown could become the next Freeny and Mathis. Considering his talent level, this pick was a steal at 43rd pick.

Horrible move by the Panthers front office. This guy is undersized and and he is not Dwight Freeney so everyone just shut their mouths. Unless he starts next season, he is not worth a first round pick.

Great job Panthers FO.

Get 1st round compensation for Peppers in 2010 and all is good.

Funny you say that.

1) When will you start working as a scout?

and

2) Did you notice most every draft group compares him to freeny?

[dexterpyro]

I think this is a great move. He was projected 1st round and when he slid that far we were able to get him. If all goes well we gave the 32nd pick for a 2nd and fourth.

Doesnt need to start immediatley(unless something happens with peppers) can bulk up a little a be a force.

[Delhommey]

Probably the highest character defensive guy from FSU since Derrick Brooks.
