| KCF0107 12/18/18 9:08:38 PM #22: | Regret Pick: Panthers selecting WR Marvin Jones over OT Taylor Lewan I suppose that I can see why the Panthers drafted a WR, but if they really wanted to go after a WR, they had two mid-1sts to go after an established player. Instead, they took what is now the 85th ranked WR (4th on the Panthers and several rookies have still yet to sign) that may take several seasons just to see if he is worthy of simply being a starter. I think that the far better choice was to snag the projected Top 5 pick in OT Taylor Lewan. I have made it no secret that the Panthers field an overpaid (take up almost 20% of the cap), underachieving starting OL. Even if that wasn't an issue, they have no depth (all are under 80). With the Panthers expected to have the same starting OL group that has "helped" the offense finish 21st or worse in each season together and no cap space to sign a replacement should one suffer a non-season-ending injury, Lewan to me had the superior short and long-term value to this team as the potential primary backup to every OL position and Marvel Smith's eventual successor. --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy https://imgur.com/VfpY7tg ...
