Hindsight is 20/20

If Rhule and Fitterer know that Henderson and Gilmore will be available via trade do they draft Slater instead of Horn? 
 

Then the question becomes…If you gave up a 3rd for Henderson mid-season would you have been better off giving up a pre-draft 2022 2nd and using 2021 1st on Slater? Seems like the classic conundrum of “which elite player is more valuable…OT or CB?” I think the answer is obvious. 
 

Hindsight is always 20/20 and I love Horn and think when he comes back healthy he’s going to be a pro-bowl DB. But the thought that we could have had Slater, Henderson, Gilmore is painful right now. 
 

Yikes.

Would have got Trey Smith in the any round before the Chiefs picked him as he's been a great G thus far and that's not hindsight that was spoken of in the chat day of.

Trey Smith had a medical red flag for blood clots in his lungs.   Many teams would have taken him completely off of their draft boards.

      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.
