So, The Panthers might have gotten a franchise safety/LB, a franchise DT, and a franchise DE in the same draft.

Extremely early for this post to show up...especially since this is really the first game we seeing extended looks at YGM. But yes the rest looks promising so far...

Hence the reason I said might and also said it’s early. So, no. It’s fine.

If things turn out great, Rhule will get all the praise, if they go South Hurney will get all the blame. 

In reality it should be equally distributed amongst the 2, as I believe they are collaborating on all of these decisions. 

Eh.....

Hurney has a long established track record of being not exactly the greatest GM in the world. If the drafting decisions suddenly look markedly better than past performance, I'm going to give more of the credit for that to the new guy rather than assume the one who has always been mediocre is suddenly doing better.

Hopefully we are saying this in week 17. 

I will say Burns is on track to being a fuging stud.

Burns has been playing like a wild man. Even when the sacks aren’t there, he’s a hair away a few times every possession. And also making some good plays in the run game.

I hope we double down next draft with a franchise MLB and some Corners

sssshhhhh no one wants Hurney to keep the job his blindfolded pin the tail on the donkey had to pay off at least once.

 

[Pimpdaddy]

...if so, wont be able to keep them all...

Chinn was a GREAT pick. Brown and Matos were guys I could have seen under Hurney/Rivera. But they fact they’re being coached up and used correctly is the biggest change.

Today was a great team win. As for me, I'm giving credit to the Front Office, Coaching Staff & Players in that order.

It goes without saying that Robby Anderson was a hugh Free Agent pickup for us this year. 

The Coaching Staff is actually coaching, game planning & adapting during the game, not to mention using players to their strengths, except maybe Curtis Samuel. 

Teddy B is playing great, making good quick decisions and majority accurate throws. Mike Davis has continued to step up and ball...

I'm happy to be a Panthers Fan...

To the old eye ball test, YGM had improved every week, from invisible to consistently making plays. Can't wait to see if his trajectory continues upward.

2001 is the high water mark:

1st- Dan Morgan

2nd- Kris Jenkins

3rd- Steve Smith

If we can even come close to that, i would be happy.

Drafts like that can change the direction of a franchise.

You mean twice, the superbowl 2015 squad was basically his roster.

Outside of Brown those aren’t typical Hurney guys. That draft is all Rhule and co.

I sure hope you are right about that.  I'm tired of seeing most of Hurneys projects flame out.

A lot of key bargin free agents were gentleman's.... Hurndog always nails the obvious first round picks if Otah hadn't had injury issues I would say he's never busted a first rounder... he also hits on a few low rounders but rounds 2-4 (the most crucial part of the draft) he is horrid.
