The more I think about it, the more a front-3 of Milton Williams, Derrick Brown and Mason Graham would be a pretty damn good foundation for a 3-4 defense. We'd still need to add some help at EDGE, but that front 3 alone would provide a good amount of pass rush.

The only downside might be if we ever move back to a 4-3 we'd essentially have 3 DTs, neither of whom would be natural fits as a 4-3 EDGE.

Moton is fine for another 2-3 years. We can reduce his cap number with an extension.

I wouldn't be entirely opposed to a tackle at #8, but I'm not sure Will Campbell is that guy. It'd have to be a true tackle, not a tweener tackle/guard.

To be honest, my favorite tackle prospect in this class is Wyatt Milum and he's generally considered a 2nd/3rd round guy. But he's by far the most natural pass protector in this class, IMO.

Still, all this OL/TE talk is moot unless we go HARD on defense in free agency to the point we can afford to pass on some really good defensive players at #8. There's just too much talent there at multiple positions and we have far too many needs on defense to pass on taking one of them.

WR Tee Higgins (CIN)
EDGE Josh Sweat (PHI)
CB Nate Hobbs (LVR)
DT D.J. Jones (DEN)
FS Andre Cisco (JAX)
WR Tim Patrick (DET)
ILB Robert Spillane (LVR)
EDGE Dayo Odeyingbo (IND)

The Eagles just showed how important building from the inside out really is.

We finally got the OL to compete. Time to do the same with the DL.

My dream scenario is trading back and still getting Mike Green.

I'm sure they do like him. I'm not sure they'd take him over a pass rusher, but we'll see how FA plays out.

Trade-down scenario. Moved down to #12 and picked up the Cowboys' 2nd rounder.

Love him as a player when healthy, but he has rarely been healthy in recent years.

Yikes on that take 

Not to go full tinderbox, but that take is correct. Organized religion (not to be confused with belief in or worship of God) is a cancer.

I have all ideas Mack will be looking to sign with a contender.

These guys really need to stay the hell away from massage parlors.

Tuttle, Jackson, Nijman and Sanders should all be no-brainers.

I'd hesitate to cut Clowney and/or Wonnum until after the draft and free agency when we know we can actually upgrade on one or both of them. Robinson is 50/50 as well.

Thielen should absolutely stay.

Jags ownership watching the Panthers defense getting drug up and down the field all season like...

Cam Newton was about a decade ahead of his time. Had he come into the league in 2021 instead of 2011 he'd be an even bigger terror for defenses than he was.

They'll end up drafting Shedeur Sanders and hiring Deion after Carroll retires in 2-3 years.

I've gotten into Madden modding for PC recently and did these Panthers revamped uniforms for Madden 25. Tried to update them without going full-on Nike-ugly and keeping the same general look at a glance, but with a more modern feel.

Just sign a solid veteran to a one-year deal. No need to invest more draft picks.

It's a good thing we found him because that XL pick is looking pretty iffy at this point. I think Coker has high-end WR2/low-end WR1 potential. Sign Tee Higgins, put Coker on the other side, let Theilen work the slot and rotate XL into the game when he's not eating rodents and we might have something.

XL about to be the first player to go on I.R. because he caught rabies from eating some random wild animal he found rummaging around in the trash.

Ladd McConkey is making plays on the road in the playoffs; meanwhile XL is posting dumbass videos on social media about killing and eating rodents.

It's a good thing we found Jalen Coker because taking Legette over McConkey is looking more and more like a huge mistake.

It's not really a big dilemma; just extend him 2-3 years and spread the cap hit out as part of his new contract.

Surely he had more than 8 drops.
