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.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
