CRA

No he isn’t. Neither XL or TMac are the natural weapons Bryce Young needs. we gave up the farm for a small ball QB to get the ball out quick for YAC guys…..and just spent two first on WRs that match some John Fox/Jake Delhomme offense Square pegs and round holes. It’s the Tepper era

So….how about some of those same insiders that had TMac outside of round 1?

Did Dan Morgan ever clear the concussion protocol from back in the day? Rules were always weird and bad back then…

It’s an elaborate ploy to make AT not look so slow. If we don’t have speed and YAC anywhere on the field then….AT belongs still j/k

A big 4.5 WR. Exactly what we don’t need given our construction on offense presently.

Hope someone has checked on Deion Sanders to make sure he is okay.

Someone our perpetual top 10 draft team can look down upon lol.

30 minutes in and on the 3rd pick of no brainers. That’s two slow for me. and some mid rounds go so fast they can’t even show and keep up with picks

I think the NFL restricts how fast picks can be turned in. I think the very first time the 1st round went stand alone it was super fast. Slows down every year

that would be a great pick for the Jags if they weren’t forced to give up all those draft assets. Brings a A+ pick down to a C factoring cost

Has to be right?

Walker. Should be Warren or a trade back though

In the same draft I would put XL below him but we drafted XL. We need to be working on finding someone to knock AT out of the slot and bring YAC to Carolina. Which isn’t Tet.

Yep, we need diverse pass catchers. We need some quick shifty YAC play. Or a TE. Not TMac. We already got to 2nd year guys to develop on the outside.

all depends. When and where you pick. I mean there is a lot of comparable edge talent IMO that will go on for a long time in this draft. To me, that doesn’t mean you just draft edge talent. Who is there? What does your team look like. you can compete and win with good offense and bad defense in today’s NFL. We still have to fix our offense. It doesn’t work the other way around the same I don’t want a team with the 30th ranked pass attack going in saying they have their minds set on a defense heavy draft. That’s not actually managing it the way I want me team. Take largely BPA that makes sense…..and factoring what the overall draft offers. I think edge at 8 is a weak option given the other edge options this draft offers elsewhere and the edge talent at 8 being not crazy different than later.

defense can only win a championship in the NFL only if the O exists. a team with a bad offense.....is just a meh team if it is paired w/ good defense.

not really, I read that as TMAC is in play if we get fugged on all our dudes....because we don't won't too look stupid.

I'm not saying we shouldn't draft defense. Clearly we should. I'm just pointing out, we also have had one of the most pathetic pass attacks in the NFL and it somehow seems to have been forgotten going into draft.....and it shouldn't be. It's a passing league.

Nothing chicken little about pointing out our front office sucks at drafting. That's just the rep they have earned. and it's also fine to talk about how we have the 30th ranked pass game in the NFL......and our featured player is AT. That we aren't in an all D window.....as the tweet implies.

yeah, this draft is going to suck. Morgan and his folks are going to overprioritize defense. Reach for their dudes early. I wouldn't be shocked if there first 5 rounds are 4 defensive players and a running back that doesn't actually make sense (hate their top 30 fixation there and who they looked at) or some poo like that. Going into this draft, it's almost like we forgot we got the 30th ranked passing game in the NFL. And our featured player, contemplated retirement, wasn't healthy and is going to be worse.

I would hate the TMAC pick. That's not what we need.

I'd be curious, outside of something like maybe Star dropping......have the Panthers in recent history drafted someone in the first round they haven't brought in for a visit?

I don't get all the Jeanty to the Jags talk. I think that's the smokescreen. Think they want to trade down and let someone take him. They got 2 good enough RBs on the roster and tons of holes. They were right there with us defensively in the gutter and they got basically 1 WR. But it's the Jags so who knows. Them trading down makes more sense than anyone.

I don't think Jeanty is a 2nd tier player. He just happens to be RB in the year 2025. and I'm going to go out on a semi limb.....I think Travis Hunter is going to disappoint in the NFL. Given the hype. Solid player. But I think he is going to be over drafted off this illusion he can play 2 spots in the NFL. I think he plays one and isn't dominate.

I look forward to every team boasting about how the draft worked out exactly how they planned and they got exactly who they wanted from the jump. in every single round.
