Is this the best Panthers pass rush in franchise history?

Time will tell if it's better than 2013 but have more depth across the D-Line. Hardy had 15, Johnson had 11 no other player had more than 4

T.D - 4 , Mike Mitchell - 4, Captain- 3, Dwan Edward's ‐ 3, Star - 3, Luke -2,  Short 1.5. So two defensive lineman and a bunch of corners and linebackers

We're can get more pressure with the D-line without having to blitz the secondary with Haynes, Brown, Fox, Jones, YGM and I fully expect at least two of them to have more than 4 sacks likely Fox and Brown.

the thing I have been thinking recently is - How TF are we going to be able to resign Reddick (only a 1yr deal) and still retain Burns when he is off his rookie deal?

I think we need to keep them both and keep this line together for the next few years - but not sure it is doable..

It is doable, the saints do it every year.

I think it could be. Even up against the days of Pepp and Rucker.

They are more consistent in applying pressure than even Pep and Rucker were.  Pep would have plays and games that just reminds you how unreal he is, but the pass rush with this defense now is more consistent and relentless.  

I would be interested to see stats comparison from Kevin Greene and Lamar Lathon led pass rush in 1996.  They were really good.

Del Rio was special, too bad we couldn't hold onto him

Well it's hard to call someone special when they couldn't repeat the same thing twice. Good most definitely, special I'm not sure of. I would say he was probably as good as McDermott and that's not a knock.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      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.
