Exactly what I was thinking. If someone from the Panthers org has said something to Ian about that, all smokescreen in hopes of hopefully getting out there and having everyone guessing. Specially the Texans, in hopes trading down 1 spot. Obviously they don't know who the Texans want, but they as long as the Texans don't know who we want either, it keeps the possibility open for a trade down.

Can't complain about this, definitely better than what we currently have. Nice free agency so far.

Somewhat has fresh legs. He was thought of just a bruiser early in his career but he showed with the Bengals he has receiving back capabilities and can pass block. Sean Payton loves to rotate RBs, ones that can do it all and Perine has shown he can when given the opportunity. Also, I wouldn’t count 2018 and 2019, Washington and Miami did not give him any chances. He’s had 500 scrimmage yards per season with the Bengals. Obviously not eye popping numbers but for a back who can do it all and has fresh legs. I think it’s a fair deal.

A few years back? Maaan, that was over a decade ago lol.

That was Kenny Golladay

Only was that's possible is if we trade back with Texans if they give us their word that they'd take Bryce Young. Then use the picks they gave us and package it with our second round pick to trade back up in the late teens, early 20's. And I doubt he'd still be available by that point, but hey, who knows. Extremely unlikely, probably not going to happen at all.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM gimme

10-3 also equals 7. Stroud’s jersey number. All makes sense

First domino falls

Some are just so in love with pure athleticism and the potential from it that they forget about everything else. Think of the Raiders.

With the first pick, of the 2023 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers select... Brythony Strouvis

Regardless of what happens, this is gonna be fun. And whoever they pick, I'll be fully onboard and supporting the fook out of our new QB.

Honestly, not that crazy to think that it can happen. Look at the division we're in. Other than the Saints, Panthers really well could, if the QB plays like a #1 pick. Assuming they bring Boze and Foreman back, we have a RB threat and great O-line unit. Defense should play well in this new scheme. We have the personnel and the proper coaches. Pass catchers is mainly what we need now and I'm sure it is going to get addressed. Bucs, no way, they'll tank this year. Falcons, seem like they're rolling with Ridder, nope for them either. Saints really are the main threat for the divison.

then it’s not

sigh, how many more days until the draft?

Wrong, you don’t know what you’re talking about. They’re either going select someone with the first pick or trade down. And if you’re mad about it, don’t be, it’s just my opinion!

Same. I've though that for a while, and honestly believe they're the highest possible we can get. Not because we don't want the #1 pick, but I don't think the Bears are willing to drop back all the way to #9 and miss out on one of the elite defensive prospects.

Happy to see him doing well

@TheSpecialJuan We need pictures of Bill Voth please.

Wasn’t he at 180 during the season? 25lbs added, interesting

He’s not the only who thinks that. Wasn’t there someone last year, a defensive player drafted really early who said the same thing about Corral?

The more and more I hear and see about him, the more i’m intrigued by him and his potential. Seeing him interview too, you can tell there’s something in him, something great.

If Chicago does trade back though, I don't think they will with us. They'll likely trade back only a few spots to secure one of the top defensive players.

Shouldn't matter that the annual average will be higher than expected, the salary cap is going to increase anyways, so, just sign the man.

I love the play-in idea, the best of three idea though...not so much.
