NFL teams screw up so many simplistic things.  Chicago knew Nagy's time was short.....then drafted Fields for Nagy to waste time with.   If they were going to draft someone like Fields they should of hired a HC that could come up with him.  Stability. 

It's like the Panthers.  They are going to let lameduck Matt Rhule waste a top 10 pick on Pickett.  Fire Rhule.  Bring in a new HC.  He most likely isn't going to want Pickett but his own QB. 

 

This is why I hope we don't go QB at 6. Tepper and Fitts have to anticipate Rhule returning for year 4 is at best 50-50. Drafting such unique QBs this year that may or may not jive with an incoming staff has to be taken into account when drafting so high this year.

Ekonwu/Neal at 6 or sliding back to 9 or 11 along with re-signing Bozeman in '23 makes way more sense long-term to build this OL out with youth. Send a draft pick to BAL or PHI for Huntley or Minshew. 

The odds of Rhule leading us to anything better than a 7-10 or 8-9 season with Willis/Pickett/Corral is not happening. Why create potential roadblocks to hiring a better HC/OC next year.

      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.
