All of a sudden the Panthers have two young defensive line first rounders

Go get me Fulton and James Lynch tonight. Leki Fotu tomorrow and I can live with the Brown pick. If you want to fix the DL, fix it right. Burns, Brown, Lynch and Fotu can be fun to watch.

I think since this whole thing is a rebuilding process, you would pick whatever player was best available on defense. Isiah Simmons is right there for the taking. 

Brown was the best player available a according to probably 75% of NFL scouts. Do you understand how football is played?

So I guess the question is - is KK worth $13m for 2 years?  I'd say yes all day.

 

For two years it is $26.5M. I was saying that we pay an extra $13M to keep him 1 year and an extra $26.5M if we keep him 2 years. This should make it simple:

Release Short now, total cap hit $17M

Release Short after 2020, total cap hit $30M

Let Short finish contract, total cap hit $43.5M

Since we can now do a post June 1st release, all 3 of those numbers are spread across 2020 and 2021.

I will take either of the OTs, CBs, or double down on DT with Blacklock. I want the highest rated players on the board that can come in and compete for a job. 

I’m exactly right there with you. This is a really deep draft. Still same mid-late first round talents out there by most years standards imo. Would not mind Epenesa being thrown in the mix either

With all the hype the offense is getting, the defense is getting into a spot where they could be much improved this season. I know, not saying much after the defensive performance last year, but the addition of Brown may have the biggest impact possible. I can't help but think Luke would have loved to have played behind him. 

Aww man I wish Luke would see Brown and be like f it im playing, our D if this draft goes right, won't be that bad and imo our offense is a top 7 unit.

Not sure if anyone else caught the comment he made last night during the Panthers live cast of the draft with jake and stew.. someone said something about his retirement papers and he said “ I Haven’t signed them yet” kinda interesting
