Add in free agency too. The best player on each side were UDFAs that each of their former teams didnt care to resign. If you view eddy > johnny , then add STs as well. 

Panthers kept on re-signing there own bad players form 5 win teams. 

I think feel they need a new strength staff as well. The last few years the team plays soft and weak. Then theres been more injuries as well. 

Team is de-void of talent and no depth for the below average starters. Roster truly needs around 40 players and thats if young somehow turns out ok. 

Just the timeline of mass exodus of leadership and talent form the rivera era into the poor player player development era of rhule(which is a big reason he was hired), then limp dick frank reich not wanting to fix this mess he signed up for. You got the giant mess of a expansion level NFL team with very little cap space for the 4-5 guys that need 20 million per type contracts. There will be no texans like turn-around here. 

This needs to be repeated everyday as a reminder to those that think this team is a few players away from taking the nfcs. It also should be posted in big bold letters on every executive's office wall in BOA.

When you look at our drafts over the past decade or so, it's no wonder why we're so bad.

2017 was our last good draft. Moton, Samuel, CMC and Butker. We’ve had Burns, Brown and DJ as good picks since the 2018 draft. We’ve gotten other starters but replaceable/meh ones that likely wouldn’t start on good teams.

Including the last good draft, 3 of those 7 are still Panthers and one is a FA unless we tag him.

The 2018-2023 drafts are littered with terrible picks. It’s honestly amazing how bad we’ve drafted the past 6 drafts. Even 2016 with Bradberry, Butler and Worley seems decent in comparison to drafts where we picked a heck of a lot higher than 30th. If you look at pick locations, the 2016 draft slots are about what we have in 2024. Only difference is we traded away #1 overall instead of going to the Super Bowl.

We have to turn around the drafts. No amount of FAs will turn us into a good team. Having multiple good drafts is the only way. We have to hit on not just starters, but above average starters compared to other NFL teams.

    • What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.
    • With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking. 
    • We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
