If true, then macadoo must not have seen a qb he felt was worth the draft capital needed 

I’m not a baker fan, wasn’t in college either but if he becomes a Panther, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt   Unlike Darnold, he has been in the playoffs 

I predicted LT and a trade for Mayfield earlier 

nfl is very fluid now and by the panthers fuging away the past two years, they are were they are.

Baker behind our new OL will be solid.  Assuming the Browns eat a chunk of his salary and he doesn't cost any high picks we should be ok.  Let him show what he can do this year and if he bombs we check out that nice draft class next year.  I'm just happy we got Icky!

As long as we're not paying his current contract and not giving up anything better than a future 5th rounder, then I'm 100% on board with it.  He's a significant upgrade over Darnold, give him a healthy CMC, a completely new OL, and DJ coming into his prime, I think he can put us into playoff contention this year.

Now if we give up anything more than a future 5th and/or pay anything above the vet minimum of that contract, then I'm strongly against it.

We'll more than likely have to sign him to an extension.

Lol Steve always gets a laugh out of me. That preseason game he called last year while he was drunk and verbally assaulting Joey Slye was legendary 

You should have been up after the draft and heard him voice his opinion about the matter. I was laughing hard at his Baker opinion.  He's not a fan.

      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.
