Who's still going to be ok if we don't draft the guy you want?

I'd like Newton but would be ok if we choose someone else. Also, even though I think taking DT #1 in a deep class doesn't make that much sense, I would be content with it. I mean we are a 2-14 team. Anyone we pick would help. We can't be set back any further by any pick we choose when John Fox has already set us back. Can't go anywhere but up from here.

Meh as long as we don't reach for a guy who has a second round grade at number one overall I won't complain to much. I have faith that the coaching staff has done their homework and is ready to make the pick that benefits the team the most....

"With the first pick in the NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select Christian Ponder, QB, Florida State."

I don't believe the whole "reaching for a guy" thing people complain about. If a team wants a guy and believe that he will help the team out, that's all that should matter. The ones who create these charts to tell us whether we're reaching or not are just a bunch of talking heads anyway.

See above post.....no way you should draft a guy like Ponder number one overall when his stock is anywhere from 15-40. If you want that guy fine, trade down and pick up extra picks and get him or trade back up and get him if your scouting department has him as a franchise guy.....

This is exactly right.

I wouldn't mind taking Christian Ponder, but definitely no where near the #1 pick. If you want a player like that, that you know not many other teams have high on their board, trade down and get him + picks, or, package some picks and trade up.

Well i didn't mean that far of a reach...i think if it isn't a HUGE reach then we should be content with it because in the end what the coaches think trump what talking heads think.

      don't know what the fascination is with Marner, he seems like he wouldn't fit Rod's system

      XL is becoming a media darling because he is different. Once upon a time, everyone had a different story worth exploring. Nowadays we get carbon copies of the same guys who parents made them specialists as little boys. You know the ones who carry themselves and answer questions like robots. He is different and has lived a life people on the national stage aren't familiar with and women are always game for an accent. He is even being featured in new NFL Network commercials just like another dude that drove the ladies crazy(CMAC). I was at a football party once, they were showing the commercial where all of the former and current greats were going after the football. As soon as CMAC came on screen literally every woman at the party screamed GO Christian! He has unwittingly tapped into the NFL advertising machine, much like Travis Kelce. All the he better produce posts make me laugh. The kid played last year on a hurt foot. Drops weren't a problem in college and according to reports he looks much faster after foot surgery. The kid was buck nekkid wide open a lot last year on a bum foot, and was asked to do quite a bit for a rookie. Let's just root for the kid and hope he excels on the field this year.

      The best ability is availability and Richardson hasn't been available.  And when he has been available he hasn't been good
