I know that everyone would LOVE to see the full screen as replays and stats.  However, we need to remember that we are a small market team and as such need to be creative in the ways that the team generates revenue.

 

The ad money is critical to the continued viability of this franchise.

 

Not what we would like to see on Sunday, but actually is quite easy to understand.

Geez lots of negativity towards all that money and time put towards the upgrades. I thought it looked pretty damn good.

The quality is crisp and clear ....and yes. The sponsors have to get their exposure

The picture is much clearer than before and even with the ridiculous amount of space wasted on advertisements it still is a great improvement over the old. If the boards are going to have that much space for advertisement then that money should be used to pay for it instead of tax payer money. The lower ribbon board was pretty much nothing but advertisements as well.

Public money was not used on the boards, it was used on the escalators.

Any opinions on the new sound system?

 

I was there for the soccer game Saturday night.  Section 514 Row 3.

 

I couldn't understand a thing the announcer said.  Mainly because it wasn't loud enough.

 

And damn all those Miller Light and CPI ads.

I don't really agree with the criticism. I'm having trouble with putting why into words so I used my high level MS Paint skills to  try to show you.

 

This is a artist interpretation of what it looks like currently, with ads:

These are the only two alternatives I could think of and neither of them seem that great.

*The green and blue are like a continuation of the video in both directions.*

*Again, high-level MS Paint skills*

 

The first one is stretched out and blurry which is not really the point of having a big screen.

 

The second one is the best of the two options but ultimately is the extra space all that important? In a still picture I can see it being cool but i don't think you would have enough time to really appreciate it when the screens are being used for their main function, replay.

 

Ultimately a screen that ridiculously wide would look weird fullscreen, there is a reason your TV isn't 5ft by 1ft.

 

IDK. I'm just not that worked up about it and I wanted to explain why so maybe some people would put their pitchforks down.

...or I'm just an idiot and I should be really pissed, who can say.

      Draft Grades

      By jfra78 · Posted

      SI https://www.si.com/nfl/2025-nfl-draft-grades-analysis-for-every-team#_s4q414nom Grade: A- Analysis: The Panthers’ gamble to neglect the defense in the first round paid off, with the team selecting talented edge rushers Scourton and Umanmielen. But their prize from this draft class is the 6' 4", 213-pound McMillan, who will make life easier for Bryce Young because of his massive catch radius. McMillan got dinged a bit in the lead-up to the draft due to a few concerns with his work ethic, but he has the skill set to be the best wideout from this class when it’s all said and done. It’s tough to gauge where the Panthers are in their rebuild, but they’re finally giving Young a fair shake to succeed. —GM PFF https://www.pff.com/news/draft-grades-for-all-32-teams-2025-nfl-draft#car A+ 1 (8): WR Tetairoa McMillan, Arizona McMillan — The Panthers continue to build around Bryce Young, who led the NFL in big-time throws from Week 8 through the end of the regular season. Now, he has another downfield target. McMillan has been one of the most productive receivers in college football over the past two seasons, ranking in the 85th percentile or better among qualifying NCAA wideouts in receiving grade versus single coverage, yards per route run and contested-catch rate. 2 (51): ED Nic Scourton, Texas A&M Scourton — The Panthers trade up the board for an opportunity to add much-needed firepower on the defensive side of the ball. Scourton, the 29th-ranked player on the PFF Big Board, has an alluring combination of size and pass-rush moves, as well as the versatility to play in 3-4 or 4-3 fronts. Over the past two seasons, his 91.7 PFF pass-rush grade against true pass sets charted in the 94th percentile. 3 (77): ED Princely Umanmielen, Ole Miss Umanmielen — The Panthers moved up to target some pass-rush help with the selection of Umanmielen. The Ole Miss product was the No. 50 overall player on the PFF Big Board, and his 91.1 PFF grade ranked sixth among players at the position in 2024. 4 (114): RB Trevor Etienne, Georgia Etienne — At 5-foot-9 and 205 pounds, Trevor Etienne, brother of Jaguars running back Travis Etienne, is stoutly built and it showed on tape, as he forced 30 missed tackles on 126 rushing attempts. Despite missing time throughout various points of the season, Etienne still managed to rush for nine touchdowns while putting the ball on the ground only once. With Chuba Hubbard’s emergence this past season, Etienne provides Carolina with a power back who can spell him in short-yardage situations. 4 (122): S Lathan Ransom, Ohio State Ransom — Carolina continues to address areas of need on their defense by selecting Ransom after already adding a couple of edge defenders in previous rounds. The Panthers ranked 31st last season in explosive pass percentage allowed at 17.6% overall and now add to their secondary. 5 (140): DI Cam'Ron Jackson, Florida Jackson — Ranked No. 130 on the PFF Big Board, Jackson is a massive presence who can control the point of attack against the run. He posted an 80.9 run-defense grade last season along with a 9.3% run-stop rate. 5 (163): TE Mitchell Evans, Notre Dame Evans — Evans dominated defenders with the ball in the air in 2024, posting an impressive 72.7% contested-catch rate. 6 (208): WR Jimmy Horn Jr., Colorado Horn — Horn earned a 65.1 receiving grade last season while averaging 11.9 yards per reception. NFL.COM https://www.nfl.com/news/2025-nfl-draft-final-snap-grades-for-all-32-teams B- McMillan could be a threat in the mold of Drake London, but Carolina might have been better served by drafting one of the top tight ends (Colston Loveland, Tyler Warren) or defensive players (Jalon Walker) at No. 8. The Panthers doubled up on pass rushers Scourton and Umanmielen on Day 2. They could have improved the secondary with one of those picks, though, and found another edge defender on Saturday. Carolina used the fourth-round pick it received from Dallas in the Jonathan Mingo trade to select Etienne. That decision stood out since the team rewarded Chuba Hubbard with an extension last year, signed Rico Dowdle in free agency and spent a top-50 pick on Jonathon Brooks, who is recovering from his second ACL tear in as many years, in 2024. Ransom's downhill play should get him on the field for the Panthers quickly, as will the size and surprising agility of run-stopper Jackson. I expect Evans to thrive early in his career in 12 personnel. CBS https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2025-nfl-draft-grades-for-every-team-giants-raiders-commanders-deliver-steelers-49ers-receive-poor-marks/amp/ I love the way general manager Dan Morgan approached this draft. Get Bryce Young a premier weapon first, then throw loads of resources at the defense. Scourton and Umanmielen have polished games and rocked in the SEC at defensive end.  Etienne is a young runner with Chuba Hubbard-like ability, and Ransom will provide stability at safety. Jackson blocks out the sun on the interior, and Evans is an overachieving tight end who could become a favorite security blanket for Young.  Grade: A-

      The NFL average for running backs on the active roster is 3.6. Cleveland was the only teams to carry less than 3. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BB0RlET2BU3TiotTmk6hMWl-36d06VAaSLUsr4jS_hM/pubhtml
