This really is a good RB class....I hope the draft goes in such a way that we could get one in the 2nd or 3rd instead of 1st even though I really like Fournette the value of this draft reminds me  a lot of the Stewart draft.

I mean yea we love Stewart but a Forte in the 2nd is better value same with Charles in the 3rd.

I have him on my current list in the 3rd.

I need to do more research on him, but if he's a real quality back, I think I'd take his value in the 3rd. I can see us then going S in the first, DE in the second, RB in the 3rd, TE as the compensatory pick, and so on.

Quality back?  He just broke OU's All-Time rushing record set by Billy Sims.  He's damn good.  

Also, stop paying attention to your "Mocks."  He'll get picked before the 4th, damn good quality kid.

Pretty interesting. Wonder if we can get him by the third with that kind of precedent. 

I'd have to see him as a runner + potential, but I like where this is going so far.

Not saying that we should do it for him, but I have a feeling that g-man trades up for a late second Rd pick, or to get an earlier pick in the second if the right guy is there. The 49ers, bears, and Rams would likely trade back. He needs to nail this draft to quiet his critics.

I remember when Perine was in the same convo as Fournette and Derrick Henry coming out of their freshman seasons. Perine is a value pick, and I do agree, he will go earlier than the 4th.  I could see late 2nd depending on combine and pro-day. Amazing RB class....

      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

      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.
