Fiz's 7 point plan

[Carolina Husker]

Yeah this is a really bad draft to not have 4 2nd round picks in.

But it is incredibly top heavy, and I think the Panthers would be better suited to go for the long ball so to speak then try to trade down. You run the risk of missing out on prince, peterson, and fairley. It's not like that DE from Clemson is going to play for this team.

It's top heavy, but not necessarily in any positions we need to fill immediately. Last year had several OTs, a franchise QB, and the best DT we've seen in a generation in the top 10.

That all depends on what the future coaching staff wants to do with a player who lacks ideal size and strength and isn't ready to contribute at any position in the NFL.

Honestly it's pretty inconsequential. We're not losing because of Armanti Edwards.

you guys have to get a veteran QB in the mix to bring a guy along...should have never gotten rid of Jake

Did Nick Fairley start last year?

I hope he is not a one year wonder.

There is nothing that Jake Delhomme can teach a young QB that I want him learning.

Veteran on the other hand, like I wrote in the OP, and like I was screaming for as soon as they cut Delhomme....epic yes.

I hope he is not a one year wonder.

was a JuCo transfer and started 2 games last year. However, being a starter on a rotational defensive line isn't that big a deal.

Any chance we could get someone like Kyle Orton if we miss out on Luck?

The Panthers would have to trade for him and I've got to think that McDaniels has realized he sucks at that part of the game.

Of course he might not be around next year. That's a weird situation, but typically a QB like Orton who is putting up monster numbers doesn't get traded.

[Carl Spackler]

Don't be shocked if they don't pick a QB and sign Rex Grossman, because I remember the FO really wanted him in '03 and since then he has sucked royally so he fits the system well.

mike vick would be sweet.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

Peyton Manning ftw

[The Saltman]

LOL if Manning signs with the panthers we could probably trade them records.

R&R's 5 point plan

1. Sign Peyton Manning

2. Bring over Bill Polian with him

3. Convince every player possible from the Colts offense to come on board also

4. Get Tony Dungy as HC

5. Make room on the mantle for Lombardi trophy
