Give me 3 big things you would like to see this offseason. Whether it be a GM change, coaching, re-signing someone, cutting someone, draft pick, free agency. 

What are 3 realistic things you want to happen? Feel free to provide any explanation. 

1. re-sign Taylor Moton.

2. Draft Parson.

3. Sign Justin Simmons.

In arguable order of overall need/urgency:

  • QB upgrade/some kind of upgrade path set in motion
  • OL upgrades
  • Defense upgrades, specifically DT and CB followed by FS and LB

All 3 items are of critical importance but I list QB as #1 largely because it may be something that takes a year or two to come to fruition; starting sooner may be of the essence. OL and defensive upgrades improve the team regardless of who is playing QB, but QB upgrade can also mask other deficiencies and more upside is urgently needed compared to today.

If we get a top 5 pick in this draft, and take a goddamn MLB I am going to lose my poo.  Parsons might be great and all, but we likely will not see ourselves in a position at the top of a draft like this, with this amount of QB talent available again.  We must strike while the iron is hot and get our QB for the next 10 years this draft.  Everything else is ancillary.

We do not need a MLB in the first round of the draft, if they want to draft one in the later rounds fine. If its not a QB or LT, we may as well trade down.

I guess the guys wanting damn parsons in the 1st will just throw him out there at QB if we ever need to convert a game clinching 4th down

1. Send Hurney to Washington 

2. Re-sign Moton

3. If Sewell is somehow available or another tackle that is worthy of a high pick, take him. I'm not sold on Wilson yet. If none of the boxes are checked at QB or T, trade down and pick up a couple extra picks and get us a center and guard. 

If Sewell is available when we pick, that is the ONLY scenario I would be comfortable taking a non-QB in the first.  Assuming we could then re-sign Moton, we would have the cornerstones of a dominant offensive line.  Then perhaps we could trade back up into the bottom of the first round and still pick one of the QBs still on the board.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
