QB: Cam, Brees, Ryan, Freeman

RB: Stew, DWill, Sproles, Ingram, Turner, Richardson?

WR: Smitty, Coltson, Roddy, Julio, VJax

TE: Oslen, Graham, Gonzalez, Winslow

No way there is another division that touches that across the board, if the Bucs draft Richardson, every team will have at least one elite level talent at each of the skills positions.

I wouldn't call Sproles, Ingram, Olsen, or Freeman "elite."

Sproles is not an elite running back, but one of the best change-of-pace guys in the game. Ingram may get there, but right now heck no. Freeman took a step back last year. And Olsen is very good, but not elite.

I don't really consider the TE a skill position really, but that 4 is probably the best set of 4 in the league.

No, Sproles isn't an elite "running back" but he is without a doubt an elite NFL player, who happens to be a RB, so it counts.

But even with those and Freeman as the 4th QB, I don't think there is a better set of players within one division in the league.

QB wise, you're right. You stack ours vs any division we win. RB I would go with the AFC South. WR probably NFC East with D-Jack, Cruz, Nicks, Austin, Bryant, and Maclin. Tight End its close on that one. I would argue the NFC South & AFC East are arguably the best. With Gronk, Hernandez, Keller (good TE on a shitty QBed team), and Fasano.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
