Remmers was solid until the Denver game when we decided he could handle Miller on his own. Most end of the year rankings had us right behind the Cowboys that year.

Yeah I recall him being steady but that SuperBowl  and the following year Denver to start the season he fell off bad. That was definitely  bad coaching too. Von Miller ate his lunch.

I just like how excited Ickey is to be in the building, playing for his childhood (teenagehood?) favorite team.

Watching his post-draft videos and comments show so much pure joy and happiness.  If he lives up to the promise of what he's supposed to bring to the table, I hope he sticks with us for a lonnnnnng time (and keeps that smile a'going.)

Jordan gross said he hopes we put a left guard beside him and let them just stick. I was telling a guy at work I hope Deonte could put up a fight with Brady. He said he has watched  Cade and thinks he has a fair shot to get the guard spot. Regardless,  we could have massive holes on either  side for the 1st time since  Oher Norwell  Kalil Turner Moton... 

We definitely have options. I think BC is the easy answer for LG long term, but Mays could be that guy too. Or he could put in a challenge for center? I don't know. I just know it's good to finally have decent options and a good OL coach.  i just hope that we can get long term contracts for Bozeman and Corbett. 

We need not just talent on that OL, but we need a group of guys who will be together for several years. Yes, we definitely need to get someone working beside Icky long term, but we need to get that whole line in there long term as well. 5 guys who can dominate as a unit and a few guys who can fill in with little being noticed.

I think that he has the highest ceiling of the 3 that were available, even if he wasn't the most ready to play. He'll take some rookie lumps in pass protection against the speed rush, but DAMN, I can't wait to see CMC running behind him! Line Tremble up on that side as well and it's going to be pure carnage in the run game!

Definitely because it's  been forever since we have had continuity  on the oline!!! I hope we can lock them up too and it seems Bradley does want to live in the area and grow off the field.

      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.
