Okung was a good player for us in the 10 games he played. Turner was a good player for us as well. This league will eat you up and spit you out in no time. 

He played 7 games. He also got hurt in two of those games playing closer to half games rather than full games, scoring basically for $13.5M we got 6 full games. We were 5-11, he was OK and he never played again after us.

We should have just been going hard after Lawrence and traded Turner for any pick, like we finally decided this year to stop ducking around at QB.

Ate himself out of the league.

I’m shocked how many fat lazy players we had in that era. You’d think we had a GM who was just obsessed with size and ignored everything else. At least Trai and Short were motivated enough to get to their first big payday before giving up unlike some others. Or maybe that’s a bad thing. I’m not sure.

Their OL last year was like some of our past OLs. Usually saying a guy was a starter is a good thing, but when the unit is an utter dumpster fire it's an indictment.

Even if we're only looking at him as a backup (compared to our current depth)?

      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.
