nick just got a bonus- extra 1,262,216, dang that's a nice bag...

If we were a consistently competently run franchise yes. Unfortunately we are a franchise run by the Tepper's and you just can't put it past anyone involved not to give Bryce Young an extension for playing just mediocre enough to be carried to wins that he did virtually no heavy lifting in.

Build the best roster we can and if Bryce continues to be a weak link continue building that roster by replacing him. Bringing Pickett was a real disappointment. Felt like we gave him $7.5M just so that we could pretend he's a quality backup. Well, he must be since we're paying him like one.

Well if we are being realistic doesn't what you just lined out already tell us where we are at? If the rookie UDFA kicker was the savior more often than not and we had a bottom 5 offense despite us having a #1 pick behind center who was billed predraft as a mini Payton Manning is that just going to magically change trajectory overnight with a tougher schedule added in? If we are going to repeat as division champions then it will be with the defense doing the heavy lifting. So keep adding to it.

Everyone keeps arguing all these teams have great TE's that made them successful. THATS BS! What makes those teams great is QB play and we don't have that. So again even getting a NON-INLINE TE who can run a fast 40 time isnt going to get us anywhere without competent QB play consistently. Which we don't have by a long shot. So honestly all these great teams have a TE argument doesnt hold water to me. Mahomes would be nasty without Kelce, Lamar would blow you away without Andrews, does it help? of course any weapon will help but only if you have someone making those correct reads week to week. When we have that then I'd be all in on a game breaking TE but unfortunately we are stuck with one of the most inconsistent starting QB's currently in the NFL. Not to mention all the TE's mentioned are COMPLETE TE's not just a receiving threat with drop issues which Sadiq does. Argue all you want but nothing will change that fact other than getting a consistent QB week to week in a Panthers uniform which doesnt seem to be happing anytime soon.

They don't have guidelines for hand size for the backup QB.

It wasn't sarcasm at all, the Panthers scouting requirements for TE's are similar to the ones they use for OL as far as height and arm length are concerned. 100% true. It's why I've been surprised that they've kept Tremble since the new staff got into place. They'll take a chance on guys later in the draft with shorter arms but if it's going to be a big contract or a high draft pick, expect them to follow the guidelines that the beat reporters have been mentioning because of fan interest in Sediq.

I think the moves they've made this offseason is to allow someone like Sadiq to be considered at 19. That's not to say he's #1 on their board, but I absolutely think he's in the conversation. It's a gamble to go TE in R1, but Sadiq is an intriguing prospect. I've seen McBride and Davis comps, which is some pretty good company. Sadiq had a 43+" VJ and 11'+ BJ w/ a sub-4.4 40 time. What I do appreciate w/ Sadiq is he's not just a receiving threat. He loves to block and is very physical in that arena. To have a quick, explosive TE w/ dependable hands that's not afraid to block is nice. His YAC and redzone efficiency is solid too. I get the logic if we do go this route, but other prospects would have to be off the board for me to want him.

Production is production. That should trump one substandard physical metric. Plenty of players do well with so-called substandard measurements/tests in a certain area. I remember when we passed on Slater because his arms were to short. All he did was dominate future NFL Ends in college, but the staff couldn't overlook those stubs for arms.

I assume this is sarcasm, but it's too subtle to be certain

Goerdert's arms are too short for the current staff. It's why they aren't looking at sediq either.

With his new foot injury, I don’t think Banks goes in the top 50-70….

He fell in the draft and we were there to catch him. He was charmin soft on the field. I wanna say teammates called him Wally pipp because he went down with injury and Ismail took over That was truly a wild time in charlotte. Bobby phis, rae, derreck coleman, George shinn. Kerry collins. I know I am missing some stories but it seemed like every day something was happening

We re-signed James Mitchell. Yay.

Trey Lance back to the Chargers on a 1-year deal. Maybe, just maybe we will take the backup QB position a little more serious next offseason than Kenny Pickett. Goerdert's is also a 1-year deal. Again, maybe we can get this right in 12 months.

I would argue that the need for a GOOD, PRODUCTIVE TE will do more for this offense than another receiver at this point.

Did a fair bit of trading in this one...

I would do unspeakable things for this draft. I think that's 5 contributors next season, and know nothing about TJ Hall, but fine by me.

I hope we go LT or DT at 19.

I do. I met him and his GF right after he was drafted working on the house he had just purchased. Both were really nice to me and treated me like any other person. I remember thinking that this was a pretty ordinary house for a NFL player, a lot less fancy than I would have expected. Gotta admit I was shocked when that whole thing happened. It was kind of creepy because I still had to work in that neighborhood and drive by that house 6 days a week.

Those girls are playing a dangerous game. Ask Cherica Adams.

He traveled around on a skateboard and changed jersey numbers three times. (Also wore 89)

I literally do not remember anything about him
