I hope the panthers absolutely do NOT draft...

Not so fast. Sure, he's kind of old. The arm's not what it used to be. He's not very mobile (but then, when was he?). He hasn't played in a few years. All that just makes him...well, Rodney Pete.
But at least he USED to be a great player, a hall of famer, an icon of the game. And as Suzie Culver would be quick to point out, it would be dangerous to underestimate the man's passionate desire.

 

Me either, I hope they draft the old WR there.

 

I still say David Baas if not Heath Miller. If Miller would be a "bust" in this offense then Baas would put our line over the top for the next few years, IMO. I realize it would be a stretch taking him this early, but what the hell? He has the heart, the work ethic, the mean streak, all the intangibles that Barron doesn't. Let Wahle play G during Baas' rookie season if he needs to sit a year, see what happens to Mitchell in year 2, and move Wahle to T if necessary. I would rather spend money and hire a guy I really liked rather than miss him based on other's projections. A coach and GM know their team best, one would hope.

 

so, you hope the panthers DON'T draft bass or miller?

 

i'm going to keep adding to my list...


Chris Rix, QB, Florida State

I don't care if he's the 7th round pick -- don't want him yucking up the panthers. he needs a serious QB coach, and that's just to fix his feet, vision and arm. there's the whole other issue of decision-making and leadership.

let someone else (*raiders*) gamble on the project.

 

what about that RB from Florida, Cialis Fricassee?

 

Any Running Back in the 1st round. Nothing against the backs, but it would be a clear signal that Stephen Davis is done and I'm hoping that behind the scenes the organization is confidant that Stephen Davis AND Deshaun Foster will return to pre-injury forms. Probably wishful thinking though, and unlikely any of the backs we would take with the 14th pick will be gone by our selection.

 

No, I mean I would like either but if it is true that we absolutely WON'T draft Miller because of our OC, then I vote for Baas even though it is a bit early projection-wise. For this team, I just feel like he has the best value. I really like the guy's intangibles...and his tangibles aren't too bad either.

 

oh, i think yo umisunderstood the thread -- it's saying who you hope the panthers DON'T draft (at any spot in the draft).

 

I hope the Panthers dont draft Baas at #14... I dont dislike the guy or anything but that is too much of a reach for the #14 pick IMO.
