Official Panthers Draft Day Thread.


Growl

Recommended Posts

Been perusing other teams' forums in an effort to get some insight on who they might take, and it seems like everyone else has one of these so figured we might as well.

A "game-day" thread for the draft, if you will. Should hopefully cut down on some of the unnecessary threads also.

G'day, and let's get this show on the road! By the end of the day the Panthers will be one step closer to our SB Championship this year!

I'm looking at this draft as insurance. With Beason, Ron Edwards, and (hopefully a healthy) Thomas Davis back, that should instantly improve our defense. So no matter what the picks may be, nothing too much can upset me, unless they pick Trent Richardson at #9 as Charles Davis thinks we will do. :rolleyes:

    • Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.    
    • It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.
    • As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
