    Anyone with functioning brain cells knew Tee Higgins wasn't going anywhere for less than a haul. If we were actually pursuing him it shows we haven't learned and it also shows the FO knows full well they suck balls at drafting.

    would have been the around the same haul as what DK went for

    I don't like it from the fact you can cause permit damage. I mean if we are Superbowl, then pop pills or inject the good stuff or whatever to play. Playing hurt is a big part of ball, I just felt two weeks and a young healer would be fine. He could have improved his numbers rather than hurt his draft stock. This is after the fact, unfair to mykel. 

     

    My father sprained his ankle to the point that duke doctors wanted to perform surgery. Last minute they tired to case his foot in stead and see if that would prevent having extreme surgery.  He got home and couple days pasted, called up his father in law HS football coach. He told my pops to cut off that case and dip his foot into the coldest water he could stand for 20 minutes followed by the hottest 20 minutes. Repeat 5 times. He did and was finally able to put weight on his foot afterwards. It finally got better and started to heal. 

    I'm hearing ya but as fans we can't whine when Horn and CMC were never on the field and then on the other hand winge that a play is playing through injury

    I am not sure I would say DL is "Low"--The Panthers get Brown back, signed a NT from LA, and signed a DE. from KC who played beside Chris Jones, who I imagine got a bit of attention.  Maybe Brown will have the same effect.  Behind each player, we have our scrubs from last year--

    Shy Tuttle--29 (in his prime)  42.7 PFF score. (33.5 vs. the run)

    LaBryan Ray--27 (in his prime) 33 PFF score (31.5 vs. the run)

    A'Shawn Robinson 30 (leaving his prime) 54.6 PFF grade (54.1 vs the run)

    Jayden Crumedy 23  (rookie season) 42.5 PFF score  (42.1 vs. the run)

    That is not depth; that is deep shirt.

    While Robinson might make the cut to play behind Wharton,  Brown can't keep playing 90% of the snaps.  We might need a NT.

    Sorry folks, but this is lazy writing once again.  I realize that he needs to produce content, but if you have developed contacts, your analysis might be deeper.  Tweets and headlines that announce who a team is going to draft based on some anonymous insider info is the reason they do not trust you.  What would good journalism look like?  "When asked about the free agent signings on the IDL, Morgan responded that the Panthers are not done yet."  "Smith-Wade struggled against quick slot WRs in 2025, based on statistics....."  Instead, he is like a girl at a slumber party flipping through the yearbook, pointing at potential prom dates.

    This is sort of a reply to both your posts. This draft is set up perfectly for us to really add some depth to our roster.

    I can't see us not taking 2 defensive players in the top 2 rounds. Whether that be edge, safety or interior Dline.

    And with us having a few picks in rounds 3-5 we should be able to grab some talent at the WR position, some more Dline help and another RB.

    And if Bryce proves to be the guy next year, the next draft should have some more top end reciever talent. Fingers crossed we have to trade up for seeing we had a much better season

    According to Williams, he played the whole 2024 with a bad ankle. He said "I played at less than 60%". I wonder if his ankle is permittly damaged then..... I don't get why a top ten guy wouldn't take a couple weeks off to heal fully. They had plenty of elite players to win without.... odd. 

     

     

     

     

    Because he's not a big cat. He said me at 60% in better than the bum behind me at 100%. I actually like that he was still elite at stopping the run and showed mental toughness to push through pain

    Which WR room would you like for Bryce Young?

    A.) Tetairoa McMillen, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen & Jalen Coker

    B.) Matthew Golden, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen & Jalen Coker

    C.) Luther Burden, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen & Jalen Coker

    D.) Emeka Egbuka, Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen , & Jalen Coker

    With just these options A by a hair over B

    Tet will probably be a probowl receiver.  If you watch his highlights, they project well enough.  People who like blazing speed, are more likely to look down on Tet.  However, he has good speed to my eyes and can run away from folks.  He would be worth a top pick.

    I like TMac but he does worry me that he could be just another big body that can't separate constantly like KNeal Harry. The same way Burden worries me that he could be another Jalen Reagor. I think Golden will be a solid WR but I think 8 is a little rich. That's why I'd take Jayden Higgins in the 2nd unless we can trade down in the 1st and get Golden then
