Where will the Panthers be in two years?

Where are the next set of playmakers and core players come from?

Player Development is a huge concern for me....especially two players of note.

Jordan Gross has been a solid but not dominating LT. Yet we treat and pay him as such. Even if his knee and confidence gets back to what we are accustomed to I feel his time is coming sooner than later.

IMO, one key priority is to address the LT position so that if there is another major injury or just bad performance we are grooming a replacement or will replace Gross altogether with little drop off. Even though it has worked in the past, I do not mean moving Wharton over to LT which has been just fine....I like Travelle at LG.

For me, Marcus McNeil of San Diego is a better player than Gross. I would consider going after him while searching for trading options for Gross. LT's command a huge premium and a few team would part with a few high picks for him(if healthy). option B would be to move Wharton and draft or sign a dominating guard.

We are exhausting this on but Wide Receiver is a HUGE problem. I do not mean the No.2 position..I mean by the time LaFell, Gettis and Edwards are getting it..(usually year 3) Smith will be at the end of his contract and considering retirement. We need some of these guys to be a number 1 guy..or get one soon...SOON.

There are other problems...but those two are going to be huge problems...in addition to DT...I COME FROM THE FUTURE..this is the only warning.

Gross has been a dominant LT, just not this year.

He earned his contract.

I never said he never earned his contract...Imjust saying Gross has been a top 5-8 LT in the league for the most part. I m just saying we need a plan NOW to replace him in addition to WR. The rest of the team I am pretty comfortable with.

It is just we are two guys away from being decimated...

We're too busy stagnating to worry about developing anyone. The Panthers learned quickly after they went to the super bowl that teams poach successful teams. They decided it was best to be completely mediocre so that no one would ever try to take their players away from them again. Now we have a big happy family. Hooray for us.

This is all assuming everyone resigns too...just set up for potential disaster. I do believe the front office has done a B+ job over the last few years but this labor move of 2010 is just at the worst timing for our franchise.

it could be the best timing ever for it. we've got to wait and see what happens.

      Fix Your Franchise: Carolina Panthers

      By fanpanther · Posted

      100% even if rest of team is really talented if they march young out to be qb and he plays like he has for 90% of his starts the panthers have already lost doesnt even matter how good the rest of the team is or isnt and also makes it hard to even tell how good they are.  They need true competition for young this offseason.

      Another renovation to BoA?

      By dave-o · Posted

      It will be awesome to have an improved stadium to lose in I guess....   https://www.yahoo.com/news/panthers-file-rezoning-bank-america-111500840.html     The Carolina Panthers have taken another necessary step toward renovating their home of the present and future. Panthers Stadium, LLC, filed its rezoning site plan with the city of Charlotte on Monday, initiating an important — if mostly technical — step toward renovating Bank of America Stadium. The filings state that the rezoning relates “primarily to technical aspects associated with improvements to Bank of America Stadium,” and that the rezoning is required because “the current stadium zoning is out of date” for the team’s stadium renovation plans.   The planned stadium updates include new seats installed throughout the upper and lower bowls; stadium safety and security enhancements; a reimagined South Lawn Pavilion; upgraded restrooms; exterior enhancements (including LED video boards) and more. Planning for the stadium renovation project will continue through 2025, with construction starting in 2026 and the renovation’s conclusion in 2029, The Observer previously reported.

      In my dream, we somehow luck into a top 2 pick and someone wants a QB bad and doesn’t want anyone else to jump them. Somehow we’ll probably screw up the picks anyway, but it would be nice to do even partially what Chicago did to us. We’d have to lose out, which is a decent possibility unless Tampa is resting. We need Atlanta to stay within a game because Atlanta beat Tampa twice. The rest of the draft slots are who knows because Jax plays the Raiders and then Tennessee and you never know who will rest starters. I think we are top 7 unless we somehow pull out 2 more wins. The 4 win teams have higher SOS and there is only one 5 win team with the same SOS. If we win 1 of 3, we still should stay in top 7. If we lose out and the Jax games work for us, we can easily be top 3.
