About midway through the season and im curious how the huddle feels about our defacto number 1 pick. When the National media is latching more so onto our second round pick.  My stance hasn't changed. If your drafting to ten you want a guy who is a superior athlete who can be the quarterback, protect the quarterback or get after the quarterback(skilled position players are weighed differently).

Brown shows promise in the run game. It was his defining traits we knew he was country strong and would be good to go there. But I was solid on the promise he would develope a pass rush repertoire and would be an asset there. Naturally running a 5.0 40 made me question that, would have been enough to say the overall athletic profile isn't there to be a asset in this department. We have seen even on passing downs brown comes out and they like to sub in guys.

My question to you guys are you content with getting a space eater with a top 7 pick?

He's going to be a stud.  You've got to look at his production in context.  How often is Phil Snow only rushing three?  Why should we expect any NT, much less a rookie NT to be piling up tons of sacks and QB pressures when on passing downs, they're alone against two linemen?  To suggest he should be doing more in the pass rush on these downs is to have unrealistic expectations.  He's flashed in both the run and the pass game and he's going to anchor the middle of that defensive line for years to come.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.

      In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
