They are basically raw--either unfamiliar with the scheme, each other, or the NFL. Offense: could have 3 rookies starting (Zavala, Young, Mingo) along with Chark, Theilen, Sanders, and Hurst (4)--meaning that as many as seven *(7) starting offense is new from 2022. Defense: Tuttle, Brown, Bell, Houston, and Woods (5) are starting newcomers In other words, over HALF of the STARTERS from 2022 are new to the Panthers, as is the coaching staff. We really do not know what we have.

I send this to my wife every year--it is valid for the entire season and it works!:

they will add a DL if they make an immediate move. IMO

IF Zavala earns a starting spot, then the draft was a tremendous success, with three starters being added to the offense. Defensively, we were not helped by this draft for the immediate future, but we did bring in a lot of free agent upgrades

I have to think that YGM is going to play DE (not OLB) in certain passing situations. We have 5 TEs and 3 DEs. That is just wrong.

Keeping 5 TEs reminds me of the time Hurney kept 2 kickers.

Man, many of your piss ants derailed the hell out of this thread.

But if a UNC fan was being objective about a UNC player in his or her honest estimation, you would call it bias. That puts the bias on you, not the UNC fan.

Throckmorton gives us G/T flexibility depth with NFL starting experience. Jamison will make an impact. Never heard of the LB

He is a pretty big back--220--but I get your point.

Was Taylor picked up? If not, is he not on the PS?

I am excited about Jamison. I think he can help us.

38.4 PFF Rating, fwiw.

I am going to say it--why are we still trying to develop Deonte Brown? I watched him when he was in this preseason--pretty awful--isn't this year 3 for him?

yes, and I think it could be his best position. (Mays) In my limited viewing, Zavala looked very strong, especially considering he was playing the right side. Jensen is going to be a keeper--pretty solid depth. If the veteran depth we had was Erving, McCray, Tecklenburg, and Jordan, give me the young, hungry, developmental guys.

I am with you. I know that Ekwonu likes him, if that helps.

I don't think Ray or Thurmond have played in the NFL yet. Update: Thurmond 137 total snap counts with 7 tackles--career

If we keep Lee and do not address T, remember what I have been saying---Zavala to LG when Corbett returns and BC to swing OT. If Moton does not rework his 2024 contract ($30m), BC becomes the 2024 RT. Gotta think long term. Lee is only here until Corbett gets back because they need BC at LG for now.

This is not at all what I expected. Bryan Ray, Nick Thurmond make the team. Of course, a lot can happen, but Lee is the swing OT? I think (now) they have to be planning on moving BC to T when Corbett returns.

I can try, but he marches to the beat of his own accordion.

i was shocked to see Blacklock's name -- former first rounder, I think. (40th overall pick)--played very little last season. Classic bust.
