We don't know who we are drafting yet?

Does anybody else think it's weird that we don't know who we are drafting yet. We always know usually by now because Marty has told the whole NFL. Maybe he is finally not making the picks? Sure hope he is on the way out.

If someone like you knows who the pick is going to be then we are in a whole lotta trouble

This is exactly why no one likes carrying on conversations anymore on the huddle. Because of smartass people like you.

I can’t recall EVER knowing who the pick was going to be with the lone exception of Cam, and there was still speculation we were going to draft someone else.

For having the #1 pick, it was very strange at the time not actually knowing who the pick was before the draft.  Before then it seemed most teams already were working out contracts for the #1 pick before draft day. 

Richardson was pushing hard for McCaffery so I think everyone knew, if he was there we would take him

Apparently, Steven doesn’t understand the difference between want and knowing.

    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way. 
    • We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
