I'm a true fan, from day one. I've never pulled for another team other than the Panthers. It's just the draft, FOR HIGH PAID FOOTBALL PLAYERS. They aren't paying me jack. so why should I get bent out of shape when they pick a player I have not heard of? I shouldn't, so why should you or anyone else? Now if I were a Packers fan and lived in Green Bay, I would probably be a little pissed since the tax payers pay for the team. So don't hate on what the Panthers are trying to do, just sit back and get your popcorn ready. It's going to be a great year, I can feel it. I would be more worried about my bills or something life related. Don't be upset over a game, everything is going to be okay. Oh, if a Panthers fan changes teams because I told them to, they wouldn't be much of a Panthers fan would they, and why would they listen to me, unless they were a TOTAL moron? lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-51597357757257525842012-04-28T21:10:26.723-04:002012-04-28T21:10:26.723-04:00I have to admit i am not a fan of the panthers sec...I have to admit i am not a fan of the panthers second round pick of silatolu. i think it was wasted pick,but i think they made up for it in a big way. Obviously only time will tell,but i think they got some real players in Alexander,Adams,and Norman. Adams is a big time punt returner that have an instant impact in the kicking game right away, and maybe play some at receiver in 3 and 4 receiver sets next season. Norman i think is the real intriguing pick at CB. I think he can help at the very least in the nickel sets,and possibly even start opposite of Gamble. He has a reputation as a ballhawk as he had i think 13 int's in college. They also got a punter to replace Baker. I think they had a really good last day of the draft filling their needs with some interesting players.It will be interesting to see how much they contribute this coming season, but i think they have some real impact players in this draft.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-35580881112898859222012-04-28T20:52:56.658-04:002012-04-28T20:52:56.658-04:00do you people realize that if you keep telling peo...do you people realize that if you keep telling people to 'get another team' that too many of them may actually take your advice and actually do that? i'm sure the panthers or any other team for that matter probably don't want their own fans telling other fans to 'get another team'. everybody is going to be upset about their particular team at some point if you are interested in that teams success, but usually it blows over and they get over it. The last thing the organization or the fans for that matter want is to lose support. If people are upset let them voice their opinion and vent. get it over with and move on,but don't tell them to 'get another team. i do think that MAYBE this team is moving in the right direction ,and WE as FANS of the TEAM need to support them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-48655905872609924702012-04-28T18:56:52.609-04:002012-04-28T18:56:52.609-04:00The Panthers take who THEY want, not who WE want. ...The Panthers take who THEY want, not who WE want.

You people do not know JACK about JACK, neither do I. Thats why they dont let us pick.

LaFell has only been decent so far, and gettis is injury prone (as is 3/4 of the team is it seems every single year..really gets old). I think randle would have made an immediate impact. the only other player i would have considered would have been Devon Still, but if you are drafting on the best player available basis it had to be randle.hurney screwed up YET AGAIN in the second round (CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-59430165535754271542012-04-28T08:24:10.099-04:002012-04-28T08:24:10.099-04:00too bad we can't draft a new general managertoo bad we can't draft a new general managerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-52236650516167654992012-04-28T07:39:32.435-04:002012-04-28T07:39:32.435-04:00To those shocked, he was ranked from 40-50 in most...To those shocked, he was ranked from 40-50 in most mocks.

And for his draft position it wasn't a bad choice. He made the roster and contributed when others went down. But for a 2nd round pick, we're counting on Silatolu to be a solid starter for years.
