Five Players We'll Regret Passing On In 2012 Nfl Draft


Recommended Posts

While I agree slightly about Still, I really wanted him in the 2nd, and Dennard would have been worth a shot by any team in the 6th or 7th, the others I completely disagree with. You'd have rather we spent our 2nd round pick on a project WR or a lazy offensive lineman? No thanks. If Broyles was available in the 4th when we took Adams I'd still prefer Adams. Hill I wouldn't have been mad about taking in the 2nd, but I'd prefer a monster Olineman (with a good motor).

according to your logic we would have had to take Broyles, Glenn, Still, or Hill in the second, therefore drafting just one of them would mean we would regret not taking the other three. This logic is horrible. If you are going to write an article like this, you might as well go round by round and pick one guy.

The Panthers did indeed have a SOLID draft imo, we'll know for sure a few years from now. Like everyone else though I wish they would have pulled the trigger on Dennard and signed an undrafted P (could have probably picked up Nortman or someone similar there). Bonehead move of the draft by FAR.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
