Well we have investing an insane amount of resources at RB the past two offseasons. It better pay dividends.

Most of that investment is Sanders, and I doubt that mistake is repeated again with the new staff.

Brooks 
Hubbard 
Sanders
Penny 

Is a pretty solid RB room. It wouldn't surprise me if they carried four into the season. 

It wouldn't me either, especially if they're planning to slow-roll Brooks, and they can't rely on Penny's health to last the whole season.

Part fluff, part insight into the draft and FA, as well as some interviews with Luke and Dan.

The problems begin with Young. The Charlotte restaurateur who clowned Tepper is right. It certainly seems like Tepper was behind the decision to trade up to no. 1 in 2023, then use that pick on Young to be the franchise’s savior. By all measures, Young so far has fallen well short of the mark. Seventy-two different quarterbacks have had 200-plus dropbacks in their rookie seasons since the 2000 season; Young’s 2023 campaign ranks dead last among them in EPA per dropback in obvious passing situations (second, third, and fourth downs of 7-plus yards). Tepper’s hiring and firing decisions and drink-tossing are embarrassing, but missing on Young will set the team back if the QB doesn’t flip the script in 2024. Per FanDuel’s win total projections, the Panthers are tied for the lowest implied market probability to clear 5.5 wins of any team in the league. Stop laughing! It’s not funny!

None of this is new info. Seems like you're just wallowing in misery just to say you're miserable tbh.

He chose Wesley Walls' number, bold

What are the odds that he even knows who Wesley Walls is

While I'm down with misery in Atlanta, who should they have drafted?

Rome Odunze was sitting right there on the board.

They also probably should've gone DE and been the first team to pick defense.

We are going to have 2 wins this year?  Yuck.   FYI, another poster and I were discussing the 2026 draft.

Missed that detail. My apologies, disregard and carry on.

In a 17 game season, that's still a losing record.  Three consecutive losing seasons for a #1 overall pick and yes, they should consider all options even replacing Bryce.

I think going from 2 wins to 8 wins would be enough of an increase to convince Tepper that he deserves one more season, to see if he continues the upward trajectory.

With our luck Bryce will have a break out season and lead us to 7 or 8 wins which will be out of reach for the top two QB.

If Bryce breaks out and leads us to 7-8 wins then they wouldn't be drafting a QB anyway.

Only knock I got Leggette, is I'm not sure Bryce is the style of QB to really get the most out of what he offers. 

Does this point to the staff not being tied to Bryce past this year, and so they aren't necessarily drafting to suit his play style, or does it point to the staff believing that they can get Bryce up to a level where he can maximize XL's abilities?

Honestly, wouldn't be upset with it.

Well I guess we'll see how good Catmanjr's sources are.

This man nailed the Jaycee option and trade up last night 

Long Snapper

There are so many directions the Panthers could go with pick 39, that it's a mathematical certainty that a good percentage of Huddlers will be seething and frothing at the mouth no matter what they do.

exposit the reasons why it “doesn’t move the needle” 

He thinks it's irrelevant because good rookies are supposed to sign their second contract before they get to their 5th year option.

Yep.  And going to be even less seperation in the NFL with more athletic and most likely bigger corners on him.  This isnt the flex highlight they think it is, its actually the opposite.

You don't think a highlight showing his ability to go up and snag an underthrown ball while being blanketed will be relevant to his time as a Panther?

Carolina chances of trading back 15%

Carolina trading  into the first to get their guy is 60%

Carolina trading for a very liked WR just went up %5(was 0 this morning but a new deal is getting worked on

Carolina stays is 0% 

Carolina know who they want but news coming in says he may not be available if they wait

I think the Rams want him and they are going to be bold about it.   Popcorn needs to be ready--Chicago at #9 (Rams Bears trade)?

I hope the first round is as chaotic as it’s shaping up to be

ftr if anyone cares, i would prefer the panthers trade out of 33.

if they can come away with another pick later in the 2nd round and a first next season, they have to take that.

They won't get that kind of offer.

JJ isn't making it out of the first.  Penix or Nix would be out best bet for a trade down from 33.

That's my hot take for this draft: that the JJ smoke is all bluster and he'll end up falling. Or he could go top 5 I have no idea.
