I think being out on Dan is shortsighted; here are the two immediate reasons that stick out to me. 1) Inherited a grossly undersized QB with no real tangible physical traits that offset his size that the prior offensive staff did not want, who appears to be an all-time bust. Bryce isn't ''elite'' in any physical category, athleticism, arm strength, nothing, even his ''superpower'' aka his processing, does not show up. Not to mention that he is in his 3rd year and is still built like an HS senior. 2) The roster was terrible, the fact that we have halfway established some depth on both sides of the ball is commendable considering we are at the top of his 2nd year at the helm; we have not seen bad contracts handed out, and we've seen relatively smart trades. Even the Thielen one, because he's 35 and we got 4th round value for a guy who was not part of the long-term plans, did we miss him these past two games...sure. However, we were not a playoff team with him anyway.

That part right there, how many times have we seen Aaron Rodgers as an example use those types of moments as an opportunity to take a shot downfield or into the endzone... For the ''IQ'' and ''Processing, his brain is like a computer'' talk, he consistently seems average at best in the majority of these situations.

Take a look fellas...

The fact some of y'all are STRESSING over trading Thielen is wild. We flipped a 35 year old for what equated to the value of a 4th (4th, and 5th in reality) with the swaps. TMac, XL, Coker, Horn, Sanders, and Tremble (who's back at practice); also factor in a top 10 OL, and two top 12 HBs in yards from last season...and y'all acting like its the end of thw world. These younger guys need to play, and we also have future assets to further improve depth.

It's going to be: N4lo Legette AT Hunter Coker Horn Moore IMO will be a vet PS option, similar to Matthews, and Boone last year.

I think it's more like we're nowhere near TC, there's a decent amount of quality vets a available. Let's see what we have in the young guys, and we can always sign a vet, pre, or post camp if needed.

You should go look up their coverage splits, Morgan also discusses it. Each has ample experience deep and in the box. What I like about both is that they will come up and knock your head off in run support. Let this FO do their thing; I think they've earned some grace this off-season.

You also have to consider the cap, they're paying Trevor, and others premium dollars, so honestly they may not be able to afford the 5th year option.

He took a pay cut earlier this off season. He's around 3M.

Not according to Luke, go watch him describe it on Bussin w the Boys... ATL motioned to empty, and that's when he knew the "designed" help wouldn't be there as initially set up.

Mods feel free to delete.

Noted.

It looks like OTC is up to date with the new deals and we appear to still have $35M available in salary cap space: https://overthecap.com/salary-cap/carolina-panthers Do we have any predictions for what they do with that space?

Lol at best receiver at TE, or RB.... He catches dump offs and the occasional wheel, or depth completion off misdirection. Age 33, no real YAC potential...I'm good.

After today....bruh this is just day 1 of free agency.

Cam, MVP, SB, and has NEVER had the weapons Allen has throughout his career.

He flopped, was drafted before Burns and Allen iirc.

Y'all weird AF, it's one week into the off-season...

So Blackshear did what exactly last week....?

Was a hard ass watch.

This is a QB School video about Baker, but he does a good job highlighting several of our defensive shall we call them 'miscues'. https://youtu.be/EzeMMgPdRl8?si=ncD6dOEQsRIh3k_1

Guys who've never been hurt still get hurt. You can't predict it. You have a positional value "preference" doesn't make another's decision wrong. Knowing we had Corbett under contract, with BC they bet on addi g weapons to an offense that SORELY lacked them. BPA met NEED, the injury was considered a non-issue from most evaluators.

It's bc BC can back up two spots, so if Mays or Ickey goes down he could fill both.

That is great and all but based on how Bryce looks....seems unlikely to happen, the best thing is to move on early versus letting it linger. Move on, invest into the roster as a whole Free Agency / Draft, and once the ''team'' is ready be in position to make a move for a QB. I'd take a Fields, he at least offers elite traits to build off of, or sign a vet to bridge the gap. I'd be interested in Milroe if he dropped to the bottom of the 1st in a trade up similar to how we got Legette. Let him sit a year and develop. While we would have still used our likely top 10 pick on a blue chip player, I'm also not against trading back in the first depending on the options etc. We need a lot.
