as of yet, no one. in fact i've added a couple.

combine didn't really change my mind on anyone except for a couple that impressed me.

with our first pick i'd be happy enough with brockers, poe, jenkins, kirkpatrick, kuechly, cox, or even ingram.

i'm not hard core on anyone's bandwagon, though my preference is to go DT with the first pick. whether that's brockers, poe, or cox....i don't know and i don't really care. i'd be happy with any of them.

sitting at 9 is a really tough spot. i still haven't figured out who i want

poe to me is a huge reach at 9. brockers and coples i think will be decent in the nfl, just not big time impact guys you want in the top 10.

i heard a lot of good things about ingram but after looking into him i'm not blown away and i don't really trust his size.

i would love to get claiborne but there's zero chance he falls and I wouldn't want to trade up. jenkins and kirkpatrick I think will be good but again just not worth a top 10 pick.

don't like spending a top 10 on a WR, especially when it's not a big need, unless they're the next calvin johnson which blackmon really isn't.

still i don't know much about. cox is an interesting prospect, want to look into him more. other than that I don't know. tough spot

Brockers

Poe

Any TE before round 4

Jenoris Jenkins

Strange DE/OLB hybrid people.

What bandwagons have you abandon ?

Poe looks pretty good rushing the passer from the DE postion, but he's a long term project, not a NFL ready DT. I seriously doubt he would have much of an impact for us in his first season here. In the long run he could develope into a decent NT who can stuff the run. Don't want him in the top 10.

Jenoris Jenkins - Opposing QBs will attack him in the red zone with high throws to taller WRs, jump balls, he doesn't weigh much either, and will struggle to tackle the big NFL WRs. Don't want him in the top 10.

Strange DE/OLB hybrid people. I think Hurney has learned his lesson, and I don't want them either unless they knee bend like Dwight Freeney.

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I didn't say I would have done it. I was just saying that I can see why some in the FO considered it. Everything was done to give Bryce weapons. Solidify the interior line thru FA. Get XL at WR in round 1 and then get the most talented RB in round 2. Take a TE in round 4, etc They were probably "assuming" he'd make a complete recovery during the 2024 season. I'm a skeptical person. I wouldn't have assumed he'd be ok in 2024. I personally would have taken another position in the 2nd for that very reason. But, if I were "influenced" to take him I would've argued to keep him off the field, especially seeing how things were going for us record wise. Conventional Wisdom says most backs don't get back to normal until two years after the ACL surgery. He was injured in Fall 2023. Having him suit up in 2025 would have been almost 2 years since the original injury. You have him for 3 year on low contract. If he balls out, you resign him for a couple of more years b/c he'd only have 3 years of tread on the tires. If he's ok but not great you let him walk.
