    NFL Draft Team Grade: C Grade


    Goals Entering the 2019 NFL Draft: The Panthers absolutely must protect Cam Newton, given his shoulder issues. Failing to do so could cut his career short, which would be extremely unfortunate. Meanwhile, the defense needs personnel for its new 3-4 scheme. Carolina's pass rush was lackluster this past season, so that must change. The secondary is also in need of help.

    2019 NFL Draft Accomplishments: The Panthers began the draft well, landing Brian Burns with the 16th-overall pick. There was speculation leading up to the draft that Burns could be chosen earlier than that, so credit Carolina for staying put and ultimately getting its man. Burns will provide a big boost on the edge, which was a lacking area in the new 3-4 scheme.

    Things soured for the Panthers after that, however. While they didn't panic and trade up for Burns, they did just that in acquiring Greg "Mr. Reliable" Little, who is a raw prospect who probably won't be able to help Carolina this season. The Panthers then wasted a pick on Will Grier when they already had a superior, young quarterback on their roster in Kyle Allen. The third poor selection was Jordan Scarlett, a mediocre running back who happens to be a bad character guy to have in the locker room.

    Carolina made some nice picks in addition to Burns, particularly Christian Miller, who will be another threat on the edge. However, they weren't enough to offset some of the unwise decisions the Panthers made throughout the weekend.

    This is such mediocre content. Author provides no depth for his conclusions.

    Saying “mediocre” running back without clarifying with data or examples.

    “Burns will provide a big boost on the edge”. Great analysis.

    Ranting about drafting a quarterback when there’s already a quarterback on the roster is pure gold. Shitting on Greg Little while citing ZERO examples of his technical liabilities.

    Even on the deeper dive piece of the article, he speaks in platitudes and generalities.

    And they have the nerve to slap an arbitrary, unscientific grade on an incomplete product.

    This content is detestable. All of it.

    What the fuck is Walter Football? It is a parody site? If so, it also sucks.

    Dave Gettleman is getting pounded up the ass with 2×4. It's fascinating to watch. New York is not Charlotte.

    He can’t seem to shut the fuck up, either. Imagine that.

    Look at your draft from three years ago.
