Clear thinking…refreshing round here

Thanks, but when the Mods see that I will be banned, for sure.

I'm open to any serviceable vet (see @Jackie Lee's list), as long as we don't have to trade anything for them (FA's) and they are relatively cheap.  Honestly, the longer they have been around the better since they can help break-in the draft pick(s) and Corral.

What I am not open to is trading draft picks for one of them, or acquiring a U-Haul and thinking it might turn into a Porsche.  But that was a defect in thinking of The Process that hopefully would not be repeated by a coach that knows that NFL can stand for Not For Long if they screw things up.

Then again, Josh McDaniels has been around the NFL for years and he has given no indication he understands that, so maybe my expectation that an experience NFL coach would know that is overblown.

Might as well keep Sam to backup Matt with a rookie draft pick in the wings learning. Take your lumps and hope 2024 is kinder to you.

Minshew would yield the same results but cost a draft pick.

Minshew is FA next year so no trade, and his TD/INT ratio is way better than Darnold's

      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.
