I know what you mean but the ultimate point is we haven't drafted any very good players that late since maybe Josh Norman. And his greatness wasn't particularly long lived either lol. For example the Rams found Puka Nacua in R5 and steelers pull receivers out their ass in any round, and we can't draft them to save our lives (in recent memory, i can only think of DJ Moore being very good ). That's not super recent either that's 7 flipping years ago now.

Meanwhile the Rams can find Puka Nacua in R5 at the absolute perfect time and the Steelers stumble into Antonio Brown in R6. And the Panthers continue to draft big ass project WRs every year in the top 2 rounds and hope one of them evolves into AJ Brown. The Panthers have had a really bad problem with piss poor talent evaluation for quite a while now.

That was our last decent draft. The only problem is all the drafts after that one have been terrible and that's why we're where we at right now. Also, this franchise is fuging terrible at drafting in late rounds 5 - 7 . I know its hard to find good talent that late but damn, we wasted a fug load of picks in those rounds. That has me worried about our 25 draft this year. We have a good number of picks but a lot of them are in R4 - R6. Go figure.

You don't draft projects with the #8 overall pick. Especially not when your next pick isn't until pick 57. If we picked Stewart or Mykel Williams that tells me Dan Morgan had big say in some of the more head scratching draft choices in the past few years and we might have given Fitterer too much of the blame.

I would argue the Legette, Mingo, DJ Johnson picks were drafting for need vs BPA . I really think Morgan and Canales fumbled hard in their first draft. Could've had something like McConkey and Fiske vs Legette and Brooks which is criminal. Draft last year was mid with legette ,JT Sanders, Wallace, and CS Wade being decent but nothing great thus far anyway. The Brooks injury really pulled this draft down from maybe a B to a C . Now we're banking on Legette making an exponential leap coming off foot surgery in year 2 to make this class redeemable.

If you're drafting as high as 8 you get the most sure fire player almost regardless of position IMO that falls to you. I don't care if that's Tet McMillain, Tyler Warren, Jaylon Walker, Mason Graham, etc. Only positions I wouldn't draft is QB and RB at 8. You're over thinking this stuff about Travis Hunter. I don't think he drops to 8. Of course he'd be a steal at 8, but you also have to hope he doesn't end up being a Chinn/Simmons where he's a jack of multiple positions but a master of none. Also worry about him staying healthy with that thin frame and insane snap count.

Jadeveon Clowney, DJ Wonnum, Jaycee Horn, Xavier Legette, lRico Dawdle All on one team This Panthers front office must really love SC players. Holy poo.

That's pretty cheap contract too

Considering we only traded a 7th round pick to get this dude last year, wow what a pickup

ITS MY prerogative! 6' 4" 328. That's probably our nose tackle / Shy Tuttle replacement. Good poo.

We really love former Vikings pass rushers. Wonnum, Patrick Jones, Jared Allen. And that one scrubby dude we signed around 2020 ish can't remember his name. The guy who later said he wasn't motivated when he played with us lol

Who the fug is that??

This is crazy, that's a ton of draft picks

Josh Sweat to the Cardinals It's looking like our big free agent acquisition this off season will be that safety lol I'm assuming they'll get some solid role players on the front 7 but no big names.

I've been listening to football heads on YouTube since the season ended and they all agreed that Moerig is better than Holland. HOLLAND is just a bigger name.
