  1. They could go with anything but QB/TE and I would be happy at this point. Get a C, G, RB, WR, S, LB, DT... You really can't go wrong. Any of those positions will contribute immediately.
  2. The Panthers saw a need and a fit. They didn't bring him in to move the chains. He's here to move linebackers.
  3. If you wanted a tackle or QB in the first round its going to be hard to convince you Jaycee was a good pick. The reality is he's a great player and a great pick. We can argue the Panthers should have never signed Teddy Bridgewater or traded for Darnold... but they did. Fields made less sense after the Darnold trade.
  4. I think it indicates a strategy for managing all the dead cap. Get lots of contributors on rookie deals to fill out a roster while they outlast bad contracts. We added a lot of picks in that 3-5 range where guys might not be stars but if your starter gets injured you have someone with potential to put in.
  5. Keep drafting offensive line. You get 3 rd round lineman and your floor raises. Think of all the injuries that have derailed good Panther teams in the past. Get a room full of young solid guys.
  6. They would have to trade some veterans right? They have no cap space, giving away draft picks is giving away their cap releif.
  7. Most of the Panthers bad decisions were avoidable... We didn't need to bring in Teddy. We didn't need to resign Eric Reid. We didn't need to sign Matt Kalil or trade Trai Turner. These weren't wise moves we all agreed with at the time.
  8. If we keep Darnold for 2 years, he's good but not great and signs elsewhere, we might snag a 4th or 5th for him. If he's great but we don't want to pay him, we might get a 3rd. The only way this deal sucks is if Darnold sucks. And we would honestly be losing and frustrated regardless of the compensation.
  9. By the time we know Darnold won't work out, it will be end of Rhule's 3rd year. Presumably three losing seasons. The process will be in jeopardy. No doubt about it.
  10. Wish we gave up less, but none of that will matter if he becomes a star. If he's a bust, he's a bust. Giving up less compensation won't make it more palatable.
  11. I wonder if the end result of all this is a really good pass rusher on the board when we pick. I'd love a tackle or a QB but it looks like there won't be any left.
  12. I think there is a lot of players/coaches/owners with skeletons in their closet. I can only imagine what Robert Kraft was doing in his Florida rub n tug. The cynical side of me says Watson disturbed the order of things and powerful people didn't have his back anymore.
  13. He's a very gifted athlete so if he's not making an impact its between the ears. Harder to predict when/if guys get that together.
  14. Yeah that was a pretty lazy take. Low hanging fruit, I'd say drafting Vernon Butler was a mistake. But he at least made a handful of plays. Will Grier hasn't done anything.
  15. It's not a surprise at all the markets are down. They should have never been up. Billionaires are toying with them to make money. We are just along for the ride.
  16. I bought exxon, halliburton, and valero when there was that massive drop in the oil market. All rose dramatically. Bought twitter when Trump bashed twitter. Made a quick 10%. I'm honestly scared to leave anything in short term. The markets are up too much given so many businesses are about to go bankrupt.
  17. This reminded me of Panthers vs. Bears
  18. I love drafting offensive lineman in the 3rd round. Hate giving up that pick. We need to draft for depth on the oline at all times. They just get hurt too often.
  19. Both teams have the Super Bowl to lose. Stopped reading after his first point.
  20. I've loved the Panthers since Bob Christian scored 2 Touchdowns vs. the Jags in 1995. I wasn't that excited about the news of the franchise. But once I saw them playing I felt ownership. Edit: Pretty sure it was Christian not Fuller.
  21. I wonder if they are still talking Panthers over at the Sehawks boards.
  22. That is an impressive field goal. Those balls do funny things at those temps.
