Of course we are.

Well that's rubbish.

What the...?

I mean, you can use that "logic," but the problem is that most practice squad players, backups or average guys don't put the play on film that Wharton did when given their opportunities. Perhaps you'll end up right, but I don't think that just because a guy has been in a rotation makes him inherently less productive because he gets more snaps. I will say that the KC fans I've seen on social media loved him, and considered him their second best DT, regardless of his "rotational" status, and generally considered him a dawg, so I'm going to give him the benefit of doubt until he shows otherwise.

Wharton is "literally just a rotational player," until he isn't. Guys can only take advantage of the opportunities given to them, and of course some of that is going to depend upon the circumstances---the setting in which he is playing.

It's "moronic" to take a DE, provided that a TE or WR is the obviously superior player. Reaching for players is why we are where we are today. Reaching for players, particularly on day one, is not a viable recipe for team building, much less championships.

I mean, "massive haul?" That's subjective. If we picked up an extra 1 and a 2, that'd be pretty good.

You guys need to stop acting like asking football-related questions on a football message board is "moronic." And, honestly, there's not a lot of poo for us to discuss anyway. Aren't some of you tired of beating the same ol' dead horses? I know that, as Panthers fans, we've been sucked into a vortex of general dead horse narratives anyway, but giving canned, dead horse responses doesn't exactly add anything constructive to the atmosphere.

The OP didn't mention trading up.

Well, we don't know. But we'll know all we need to know on the 24th, including whether he and Davie boy will be here in two years.

We shouldn't be taking any of them near or in the top 10 (save for Abdul Carter who isn't going to drop).

Why? So you can see the fugup sooner than later?

Because he's short and smallish for a pro EDGE.

What you guys don't realize is that we have every reason to be deploying smokescreens, while also keeping our top pick close to the vest after what Xavier Legette did last year. I'm not believing that we're taking Williams at eight for a minute.

Yeah, Warren "does more than Pitts," which is important, but the most profound difference--that should be at least stated---is that Warren is a dawg and Pitts is not. That's super important when making that comparison.
