This is a forum where you talk about the Panthers.  If you're not into his post dont comment.  I never understand comments like this...

 

 

Camon man, you couldn't just post this on the panthers Facebook page?

I'm no NFL history buff nor do I closely follow other teams drafts but man, I couldn't be happier with these draft picks.  It seems like we've hit homeruns in the first round the past 10 years+ with the exception of Otah.

 

 

Given star contines and kev lives up to the hype, has there been a better four year haul for first rounders?
Like in the history of NFL?....??...

True, but in those 10 years since the Super Bowl loss, we've only been in the post season 3 times. Take it for what you will.

I mistakenly forgot dallas blowboys haul of ivrin, akiman, emmit and maryland....... I even looked at some others. steelers had terry, green, harris and WR named lewis(had 6,000 yards in running system).... hmmm it will be a hard list to top, but I think the current talent could pass them! Getting at least three superbowl would go a long way..........

As far as paying all the studs, I believe even before dave was hired there's a plan in place(daves adding to it as well example-cutting smitty now saves 10 mill after next year)Plus 1st rounders have the fifth year option and the tag for two years, so that's six or seven years. That also helps when it comes time for next (and most likely the last big) contract for a players career. Its on the players, dave could ask if "Do you want to big a part of something special?"

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
