 so calling someone crazy over & over & for some odd strange reason that makes sense to almost everyone ? 

& no of course i do not know what happened with this particular case and could really care less that's for the courts to figure out 

i do know that Greg Hardy has been exposed to a lot of repetitive head impacts throughout his football carrer which can lead or cause & often does in players such as Greg Hardy a progressive brain disease that becomes worse with time called Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy which would most definitely cause a person to have a viloent behavior  ...just saying

Lord knows the US court/judicial system always gets it right.....

Ray Rice is perfect example of the justice system failing victims (MOSTLY women) of violent often sexual crimes no recourse. 

I hope you don't have a daughter that some ish like this doesn't happen to her in her lifetime and you be like "let the courts do their job"

fug these men who are predators and hide behind money and lawyers in a corrupt system AND the people who blindly support them or choose to turn a blind eye.

LOL i dont really care we are here to talk about Carolina Panthers football 

 i just feel like i read & hear this he says she says poo all the time over & over again  on the internet  TV  work ,in public & then i think back to myself oh what a sick slandermongering world we live in now. ts just like those National Enquirer magazines you find in the grocery store at the checkout counter which are nothing more than complete & utter BS 

& more often than not when you assume something then you make an ASS out of U & ME. so chill &  let the courts do their job & if he is guilty well he is guilty 

LOL either or this has nothing at all whatsoever to do with Carolina Panthers football ..

just saying 

lol... this sounds like some cheesy romance novel. where you have the superstar jock, police officer, & this chick that is in the marching band

To be fair, some of those years it was true.

but let's just  look at the Panther right now (2025)  & what do you , i & everyone else see it's INEXPERIENCE

1) Qb 2 years experience / Bryce Young 

2)WR 3 players with a combined 2 years experience  Jalen Coker , Xavier Legette & a Rookie at WR1 Teotria McMilian 

3) TE 1 year experience J.Sanders

so whats that a  total of altogether 5 players at key skill positions on the offensive side of the ball with a combined 5 years of experience in the NFL 

& then we have these rookie edge rushers that normally take at least on average  2 to 3 years of experience before they finally IF & WHEN develop into a legitimate starter in the NFL ?

be patient right now this is going to be like watching paint dry & hopefully one day soon  it shines 

loĺ i hear this every year

When’s the last time a backup qb with a massive media circus worked out? As soon as Bryce has one bad game there’d be a media circus about how shedeur should be starting and i would near guarantee there’d be leaks and reports coming from the sanders camp
 

Backup QBs are supposed to be glue guys that work their tail off and stay out of the spotlight. 
 

the only place I can see him conceivably being a backup would honestly be a place where the starter is entrenched like Baltimore. He has way too much media baggage to be a regular backup. 
 

same reason Cam wasn’t able to hang around as a backup after his prime 

my biggest concern with Bryce Young is consistency & that's the thing with pretty much all these Qbs in the NFL they all have the potential to be really good Qb's  but it's the ones who can consistently be good for 4 quarters week in & week out that separates the elite Qbs from the average/bad Qbs in the NFL. 

& what i see in Bryce Young is very concerning to say the least because he struggles to be consistently good week in & week out.& moreover BY seems to play even  better when the pressure is off in games toward the end of the season where the Panthers are not in a position to make the playoffs .it's really you never know right how BY is going to play from one week to the other 

& if you look at the other Qbs in the NFL you will see the same thing Qbs like Jameis Winston or Derek Carr & so many other Qb's who at times look like elite Qbs then at other times they struggle to make good decisions/ interceptions  & complete passes 

so yes i think Bryce Young needs a legitimate plan B  such as Shedur Sanders until he shows that he can be consistently good week in & week out

Their momma had to be a couch potato with zero athleticism.

LOL what about Bryce.Youngs measurables & athleticism 

Bryce Young goes #1 overal .then  a few years later Shedur Sanders has a weak arm & not athletic enough to be drafted ?  

makes no sense ?

with our current Qb situation i think its safe to say we (Panthers) need a plan B in case Bryce Young ultimately does not pan out .Shedur Sanders makes alot of sense for the Panthers ...just saying 

 i thought the Panthers were currently in a rebuild ?&so why is it they are still attempting to trade up like they are only one or two players away for need/fit edge rusher ?

it really makes no sense for a rebuild team to do this ?

I guess the Panthers honestly think they have a chance to make the playoffs this upcoming  season ?   & will be picking in the latter part of the next year's draft  .if they do trade up intto the top (32-43) of the 2nd round in order to draft an edge rusher it will most defenitely require picks from next year's draft

when you are desperate to make something happen the odds of you getting burnt increase exponentially...

in the 2nd i would try to trade up & draft CB Will Johnson & I already know everyone wants an edge rusher however another really good player still on the board right now is TE Mason Taylor.both of these players might even turn out to quiet possibly be the best CB or/& TE in this draft...

I promise you if you draft for need/fit you will not have nearly as good of a team in the end as if you had took the best players .& like I have said before need/fit is for free agency not the draft .& another thing a 2nd round rookie edge rusher is going to have little to hardly any impact on this teams success this upcoming season an edge rusher takes time to develop into a legitimate starter in the NFL...just saying

He can’t get off press coverage in the PAC 12/Big 12. He is a go ball specialist who isn’t particularly quick. Defenses will play tight man, jam at the line, and still the only guy who will get open is Adam Theilen. 
 

Taking this guy when you have both Loveland and Warren on the board is peak stupidity. Warren or Loveland could do everything you drafted Tet to do, and they can play tight end really, really well. 
 

Adam will still be the only open receiver and Legette and now Tet will flail around trying to get off coverage for all but three or four snaps. 
 

Welcome back to the Benjamin/Funchess experiment guys. That worked out really well when Benjamin got hurt and Funchess had a ridiculous season. 
 

What. A. Waste. 
 

They can’t sell me on BPA. They tried to trade down and when they couldn’t, they reached by probably 10 or more picks. 
 

If this fails, or worse, hurts Bryce’s development, they all deserve to be fired. This is playoff year. This is Year 3 after taking a QB first overall. Taking Tet at 8 is a reach of reaches. 
 

I hope it works out. I have a feeling it won’t. This guy isn’t Christian Watson or Mike Evan’s or Drake London. And each one of those guys plays with other receivers who can GET OPEN. 
 

See you guys in August. This is garbage. 

yeah Tet McMillian is not Mike Evans that is not a good comparision it's a lazy one if anything Tet looks like a slightly heavier George Pickens coming out of college 

NM 

Tet McMillian does not play with that dawg mentality like he is going to war when i look at Tet i see more of a finesse type of WR  

finesse works fine when you have superior talent to your opponents but this is the NFL an entirely different animal than the Big 12

i want to see Tet McMillian become more physical & use that big body to his advantage especially when he has the ball in his hands /YAC..just saying 

like I said before i am going to play nice .

anyway i have wanted for quiet some time now to trade down & draft a WR (Golden) in the first of course that did not just happen but at the same time we still got a WR / playmaker for Bryce Young & this offense

I also like Taylor over the other TEs and see him going like Olsen at the end of the first. Neither Warren or Loveland did any workouts because they only had value to lose. Taylor is going to be better and has obvious zip over the other two.

yeah Mason Taylor can also play in the slot as a WR so i agree he is going to have/has more zip & elusviness as a route runner than the other two

He will be the 2nd wr selected after Hunter unless the Panthers take McMillan at 8.

NM I will be nice

Golden will not fall that far.

probably not i think MG might even be WR 1 on some big boards .to me he looks like the best WR in this draft class 

trade back to the latter part of the first round acquire an additional first round pick for next season & then  draft Matthew Golden in the 23ish range

Yep, BPA sounds good in theory but doesn't exist in reality. 

it does not exist now because we try to draft for need/fit on a team that has holes everywhere

everyone talks about how great Marty Hurney was in the first round & if you go back & look the one thing that made Marty Hurney so good in the first round was he always took BPA.

& here is another more recent example of BPA Dan Morgan drafted BPA just last season when he traded up in the 2nd  for an injured RB that was the BPA at the time on most big boards

What if BPA is Jeanty? You take him at 8?

if your BPA at #8 is Jeanty then ideally  trade back a few spots try to get a 2nd or even an extra 3rd .picks #9 - #12 really like Jeanty 

& if they want to low ball ( fleece) you since they already know you will more than likely not draft Ashton Jeanty then screw it go ahead & call therir bluff & draft AJ then just sit back & watch them get in a bidding war to acquire his rights 

& that very least /worse case scenario keep Jeanty & Hubbard & just run the ball down the opponents throat

...just saying BPA 

i honestly do not think we (Panthers) have many irreplaceable players on this team right now .& they should just simply keep drafting BPA each & every round &so what if you have two really good players that play the same position that is a good problem to have since you now have someone you can trade for even more draft picks

there is one thing for certain you cannot play or trade a bust all you can do is at some point cut your losses & if Mason Graham is BPA at #8 ; then that's who the  Panthers should most defenitely draft  ...just saying

BPA is a lie and I wish we'd stop talking about it like there's a universal power ranking for the draft class. It's meaningless because "best" and "need" are both highly subjective team by team. Most media big boards had Fletcher Cox ahead of Luke.

The good teams have the luxury of low stakes picks and incrementally upgrading the roster because they don't really have needs. The bad teams have needs at critical positions that are hard to draft, as we well know. 

so sure we can draft BPA we have done it before on numerous occasions & as a result had some of the best drafts in franchise history .

& like this team just  thought they had absolutely no other choice but to  draft a WR with the first pick last year & then what happens we sign (UDFA ) a WR who might wind up being better than that WR we though we had to trade up into the 1st round to draft 

building quality football teams takes alot of patience & a rookie edge rusher is not going to fix this team what is going to fix this team is talent/BPA  patience & making good decisions...just saying
