What did she actually say?

Either way, do you really believe she was the one orchestrating the entire trade?

Much more likely to was a made for TV moment where she is just basically relaying what the front office was planning on saying.

I know it’s easy and fashionable to blame the rich guy but if anything it’s almost masking the fact that our from office has at this point seem to have done a really poor job the last few years.  Not only with the draft, but also free agency and evaluating the worth of their own players. 

 

Neither scenario is particularly a good look all things considered.   
 

it would be nice to operate like a nfl franchise at some point

You can call it "rich guy hate" if you want but all NFL owners are absurdly wealthy. It's about having the worst record in the NFL and appearing completely clueless.

They're not ruining all football in the Carolinas, just the NFL. There's still college ball, which has been a lot more fun to watch than the NFL's Carolina team over the last seven years or so.

Can't do college ball myself. Too sloppy and just not high enough quality for me. I get the entertainment side but i only liked it when I was still in college.

I get what you're saying. I think the high level college stuff is just as good as the NFL quality. But that's only a handful of schools traditionally. NIL and the transfer portal might end up being the great equalizer for college ball. Then again, they'll just allow schools that can afford it to buy teams. See Texas and FSU for example.

It's not to me. Nothing at that level ever came close to the NFL and my freshman year my school took the championship. Hell buying teams is closer to the NFL. It is as different to me as high school is to the NCAA. I like the way it's going with the NIL but I still can't watch much of it.

Fair enough and as the old saying goes, unto each their own😄

      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.

      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.
