That hasn't stopped dumb GMs in the past tho.

All it takes is one Gringson. 

It's true. But this WR market is REALLY bad. There's a reason why the Bear REALLY wanted DJ Moore. The draft is weak too, at least on the top end. I actually like the WR depth in this draft but it doesn't have the guys who project as potential stars.

Parris Campbell.  Not the sum of his parts yet.  Had some decent games in Indy. Familiar with what our new offense might look like. 

 

 

I expect this. Connection is obvious but his playstyle fills a need.

We need some gems.  Some hidden gems.  They are there.

I’m fine with TMJ as our WR2, but give me a strong WR1 in a trade like Sutton, and sign Paris Campbell to man the slot. Plus whoever we add in the draft you now have a pretty talented WR room for a rookie QB to work with.  TE will also have to be addressed..

The same fanbase that tried to argue that DJ Moore wasn't a #1 WR is now gonna try to sell me that Courtland Sutton is a "strong WR1"?

I know this is directed at those posters who rly undervalued D.J. but tbf I think a healthy Sutton and healthy D.J. are the same tier of WR1

Some sundays they'll disappear but you're glad hey're on your roster for like 12-13 of those sundays.

Oops reading comprehension can be tough. I had two option that are straight up free agents.  Personally I like two guys. 

Mack Hollins.  Played his college ball at UNC.  Big possession guy.  Flashed a bit when Devante was not healthy in Vegas. 

Parris Campbell.  Not the sum of his parts yet.  Had some decent games in Indy. Familiar with what our new offense might look like. 

As far as trade guys Courland Sutton is being shopped. I like him.  Could be our new number 1 WR. 

 

What are we going to give for Courtland Sutton? The only thing that makes sense is a 5th. They are going to want a lot more.

Despite what many think, this is a rebuild.

We don't need a WR1, WR2, WR3, we just need three solid receivers. Every contender has at least three guys who can stretch the field vertically, horizontally, and behind the LOS. Then you have the elite tight ends on those teams as well which we don't have. 

We are in a rebuild guys, which I'm fine with. This is going to be more like 2011 than 2013 (which I feel most people are expecting).

DJ Moore was a WR1, and a very good one.  He’s all around a better player than Sutton, but he’s gone.  Sutton like DJ has been plagued with horrendous QB play.  Based on the guys available via trade Sutton is the best available considering age as he’s only 27, size/ability.  Nuk is great but that’s very short term.  Sutton is the perfect replacement for DJ.

      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.

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      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.
