Panthers Secure No. 1 Overall Pick In 2011 NFL Draft

It took a rare Sunday off for the Carolina Panthers to finally win something big this season -- the No. 1 overall draft pick. The NFL-worst Panthers are on the clock for April's draft and potentially in line to take Stanford star quarterback Andrew Luck after wins by Cincinnati and Denver. That gave the Bengals and Broncos 4-11 records and left the 2-13 Panthers with an insurmountable lead in the race to the bottom of the league with one week left. The Panthers will now wait to see if Luck decides to leave school early. Numerous draft analysts have called the six-foot-four Luck the best prospect in the potential daft pool.

Looks like Luck is staying in school according to Peter King.

 

congratulations!! ............ i guess

 

I would too if the only option was the Panthers.

 

WAY TO GO!! BYE BYE JOHN FOX! Do you think Jimmy Clausen is going to douche poof his hair up and go party it up tonight? Honestly, this team has fallen hard. I don't really understand what happened. But hey, Cam Newton would probably look good in a Panthers uniform!

 

Yeah, the destiny of the #1 pick, is to end up with the worst team. I wonder if Cam Newton give it a second tought too...

 

I think Cam is gone. Especially if Luck stays.
