Honestly I'm not that impressed with the Panthers draft. Mine would have gone something like this.

1.1 (#1 overall) Marcell Dareus, DT

3.1 (#65 overall) Trade for future 2nd. If I'm stuck with it I'd probably take Hankerson or Reid.

3.33 (#97 overall) Luke Stocker, TE

4.1 (#98 overall) Christian Ballard, DL

5.1 (#132 overall) Marcus Cannon, OG

6.1 (#166 overall) Quan Sturdivant, LB

6.38 (#203 overall) Greg Romeus, DE

7.41 (#244 overall) Lee Ziemba, OT :D

UDFAs

DeAndre McDaniel, S

Jeron Johnson, S

Derrick Locke, RB

Noel Devine, RB

Ian Williams, DT

Kendric Burney, CB

So you're up, who would you have chosen?

I like that we finally had the balls to step out on a limb and draft an athlete/personality like Newton. Had it been up to me however I would have either strongly considered taking Peterson first overall and probably ended up pulling the trigger on him instead of Newton or I would have traded down to some where around 10-15 to pick up a much needed 2nd rounder, and would have probably ended up taking Nick Fairley or Phil Taylor with my pick in the first.

Our Draft was okay I guess... I really had the fact that we missed out on some really good talent left in the 2nd round because we didnt have that 33rd overall pick.... getting Marvin Austin would have really made me a happy Panther Fan.... the last time we picked up a tar heel he turned out to be a really awesome player.

    • They played some good teams but they also played a lot of pee wee college defenses too.  Warren won't be that open in the NFL.  Although credit where it's due, he did make some contested catches against good coverage.  
    • If I’m putting myself in a team’s shoes - you’re looking at these prospects and Warren hits most boxes for a TE with a plus on most. So yeah, he’s a great prospect, no doubt, 1st round talent as a TE. But when I look at him through the lens of that PSU offense, they were running so much through him, I’m not so sure it was beneficial to seeing how he translates.  They were getting him open in the flat, running weird trick plays, and designed a lot of ways to find him on delayed seam routes and such. So a lot was structured around getting him the ball in creative ways to advance the ball, in steady sequences, methodically down the field.  Thing is, yeah he’s catching a ton, is big, and can block, but throw him into an NFL offense in a more traditional sense, he’s gonna be stickied by speedy LBs and big nickels. I just wonder how he is in a more isolated fashion— when he’s just a piece of a greater NFL offense getting shadowed by more talented defenders. I think it could still be great but I have question marks when it’s at the TE position. Will he look no different than other very solid TEs or is he this offensive centerpiece at the position that doesn’t come along often (Bowers, Gronk, Kelce, Witten, TG, etc)? I think he brings a ton and could be one of the safer TE prospects, but what I’m unsure about is if you’re really getting this new age Witten type people are crowning him as. Even if that’s the case, is that worth it? If he wasn’t in PSU’s Franklin/Allar offense, would you be seeing the same output?  More questions than anything - I could get on board with it, but it’s hard for me to really project because of how that offense was (which was so frustrating at times). 
    • Twitter sources, but supposedly the Rams want him. He might actually go Round 1.
